No for this reason. You only have one caravan & if it is wrecked or damaged then you have no caravan. This is why it does not really make sense for an individual to hire out their caravan or motorhome. A hire fleet has 100s of vehicles so it is viable to have a 100 caravans to hire out because if one is wrecked you still have 99 unlike an individual who will have none.

I think the answer is a big fat NO.

Your insurance wont cover it. You wont be able to do identity checks on potential hirers. Yes you can check their driving licences etc but would you be able to spot a fake one? Or know they are moving abroad and your van will be in the first ferry out of the UK?

If you hire it to friends and family then there could be a dispute is it gets damaged which was not their fault. Opens a whole can of worms. Who pays for the damage?
