This guide introduces the online check-in process offered by many campervan companies, designed to streamline your vehicle collection. By completing preliminary steps in advance, you can minimize wait times at the branch and start your adventure sooner
Most campervan companies now have an online check-in feature available. This feature will not only allow you to check-in at your leisure a few days prior to pick-up, but it will also save you time when collecting your campervan.
Checking-in online means there is less paperwork to do on the day of pickup and this will reduce the amount of time you spend standing around at the branch.
Also having pre-checked-in is handy if your flight has been delayed or if you are running behind schedule.
If the campervan company has an online check-in, the team at DriveNow will send you an online check-in email usually 2-5 days prior to your departure date.
The email will have the link and instructions to help you start the check-in process online. Once you retrieve your booking and your name is displayed, you can start completing the steps, including adding your personal details and driver’s licence information. You can also add any additional items you wish to your reservation, such as extra furniture, a first aid kit etc, or you can change details such as the listed drivers or excess reduction.
You can also watch instructional videos about your vehicle. You can see how you change the dining table into a bed, how to empty the toilet cassette, how to plug into power and handy tips when setting up your camp site.
A fantastic travel App is available if you are travelling with Apollo, Britz, Cheapa Campa, Hippie Campers, Maui, Maui Elite or Mighty Campers. It is an excellent App for helping you to plan your road-trip.
The App will display a map of your current location and show the nearest campsite, holiday parks, nearest supermarket, petrol stations, public toilets, free wifi as well as road alerts and much, much more.
