Frequently Asked Questions

Canadream is one of the largest RV Rental companies in Canada catering to the needs of those wanting to experience all the magnificence Canada has to offer in the comfort and convenience of their own camper or 'home on wheels'. All vehicles have Automatic transmission.

As you know we have our "winter-ready" Maxi Motorhome (MHA), which is our unique RV that has extra insulation so doesn’t need to be winterized. Guests enjoy full use of the kitchen and washroom all winter long.

CanaDream is happy to offer a Saver option which allows you to save money on the nightly Flex Rate by allowing CanaDream to assign their RV on the day of pick-up.

Guests cannot specify their vehicle choice; this is entirely at CanaDream’s discretion based on availability. It is important that the right booking is made to suit the number of adults/children. Guests will find out their allocated vehicle during online check in, opens 5 days before pick up.

There are three selections:
Saver 2
Saver 4
Saver 6
FOR UP TO 2 ADULTS

Guests will be allocated either a TCA, DVC or an SVC.
FOR UP TO 4 ADULTS AND 2 CHILDREN

Flex Rates
Flex Rates allow CanaDream to offer flexible pricing, which gives you the opportunity to secure the best possible rental rate. The Flex Rates are based on a very simple system of supply and demand. So, when there are many RVs available for hire from a location, the rental rate is lower. Generally, this means that the earlier you book, the better the rate!

Flex rates exclude taxes, one way fees and all optional extras.

Minimum Booking Duration
A road trip allows you to travel at your own pace. To ensure our Guests get the most out of their vacation, we have a minimum 7 night rental in the summer season and 5 night minimum rental in the winter season. Vehicles can be returned earlier, but the minimum night charge will apply to the booking.

Summer Season: 31st March to 2nd November 2025

Journie Rewards
At pick up every Guest will receive a JOURNIE Rewards membership card with a promotion code to activate their account. Guests can also download and register with the JOURNIE Rewards app or on the website www.journie.ca. Thereafter every time they fill up at a participating station all over Canada, they will save up to 12c/litre plus they receive points for every $ dollar spent which they can spend and get discounts on purchases in the stations!

Early Pick Up / Late Drop Off
Guests will select their pick-up time during online check-in.
 • Standard Pick up times are between 1pm and 4pm.

Early Pick-Ups and Late Drop-Offs cannot be pre-booked. These options are only available during Online Check-In, subject to availability.

Guests are advised against turning up earlier than their scheduled arrival time. The arrival times are based on the pre booked pick up/drop off schedules and vehicle prepping and availability, therefore an early arrival is unlikely to result in an earlier than booked pick up slot.

The current taxes per province are:

  • Calgary, Edmonton, Whitehorse: GST: - 5%
  • Vancouver: PST: 7% + GST: 5% = 12%
  • Toronto: HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) - 13%
  • Montreal: QST: - 9.975% + GST 5% = 14.975%
  • Halifax HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) - 15%

There is no provincial tax in Calgary, Edmonton or Whitehorse. Tax is calculated on the gross amount of the rental.

Note: Kilometre packs can only be purchased in advance of pick-up. Once the guest has picked up, additional kilometres are chargeable per kilometre.

USA Driving
Guests are welcome to travel into the United States with the correct passport/visa/documentation relevant to their party and when there are no government-imposed restrictions.

A US Driving fee of $100 per booking applies to any travel within the United States (including Alaska). This gives unlimited nights of stay in the USA. If the US Driving fee is not included in the rental package, it can also be added during online check-in and from the road by contacting our call centre in advance of crossing the border.

Guests must pay the US driving fee before entering the USA or their insurance coverage will be voided.

Guest Guide
At check-in, each booking receives a Guest Guide for their vehicle type. The Guest Guide is a step-bystep handy guide containing all Guests need to know about their RV. It’s a helpful reminder of all the elements covered during the Quick Start Guide but remains with them for the entire duration of their vacation and it’s free to take home with their holiday memories.

CanaDream Club
All guests are immediately members of the Club as soon as they have made a booking with CanaDream. They are able to download the CanaDream Club app where you will find useful maps for fuel station locations (with our partner gas stations), campgrounds and many attractions across Canada who are happy to welcome CanaDream RVs to their attraction and to offer CanaDream Guests preferential pricing or added value.

Insurance
All CanaDream Inc. vehicles are insured with $5 million public liability and property damage including collision and comprehensive insurance. Accident Benefits Coverage is also included offering medical and rehabilitation expenses, income replacement, and other benefits regardless of who is at fault in the accident. It covers the renter and their passengers for injuries sustained in an accident in the rental vehicle.

Security Deposit
A security deposit of up to CAD $3,000 is required on a major credit card (we accept Mastercard, Visa and American Express), paid at time of pick up, for the collision and comprehensive insurance deductibles as outlined in the insurance section. The deposit is refundable upon the return of the vehicle in the same condition as it was received and if it was not involved in any incident claims.

The Cardholder must be present at pickup.

The payment is processed for the duration of the RV rental and the security deposit will be refunded to the same card if the vehicle has not been in an incident or any damage caused in line with our insurance policy.

The security deposit is processed to the Lead Driver/Main Guest’s credit card at pick up and is refunded to the same credit card upon return of the vehicle, if the vehicle is returned in the same condition as it was received, i.e., without damage.

The physical credit card must be presented by the named Guest at the time of pick-up.

• Any Guest that is involved in an incident will have their deposit held (to the maximum charge) for a minimum of 60 days or until the incident claim is closed.

Claims that are less than the deposit amount will have the difference refunded to the Guest upon closing of the incident claim.

 • The Guest is responsible for the maximum applicable charge where expenses include, but are not limited to, towing, storage fees, damage to the CanaDream Inc. vehicle, damage to third party property, injury claims, insurance adjuster fees, and legal fees. The Guest is responsible for costs incurred for temporary fixes to enable their rental to continue.

 • The insurance does not cover liability for loss of personal property, nor does it cover costs for accommodation, transportation, or replacement of the vehicle if the vehicle is stolen or should an incident occur that makes the rented vehicle inoperable. In these situations, and depending on availability, a new signed rental agreement must be in place before a replacement vehicle is provided.

 • The security deposit covers the rental period, unless a unit replacement is required or where there is significant damage caused to the rental vehicle or third party damage. In this case a new security deposit may be required.

 • Where a replacement unit is required due to an incident, depending on availability, a new, signed rental agreement and security deposit must be in place before a replacement vehicle is provided.

 • The Guest is also responsible for the cost of business loss where damage is caused by negligence; this will be charged for the period the RV is unavailable due to repairs.

 Incidents must be reported within 24 hours and be accompanied by the completion of either a CanaDream online accident report or the written accident report form (in each vehicle), along with the police report or file number.

Liability Reduction Options
CanaDream offers protection options that reduce the Guest’s financial responsibility for covered physical damage to the Rental Vehicle. Liability Reduction and Liability Reduction Zero are not insurance, but are contractual agreements between CanaDream and the Guest, wherein CanaDream agrees to seek reduced or no recovery for covered physical damage to the Rental Vehicle, subject to exclusions.

 • Liability Reduction (LR)* – selecting this product reduces the Guest liability to CAD $1,000.
 • Liability Reduction Zero (LRZ)* – selecting this product reduces the Guest liability to $0.

* Applies for the rental duration for covered physical damage. The incident must be reported within 24 hours otherwise the cover will not be applicable.

CanaDream reserves the right to restrict access to specific geographic areas at any time. These restrictions may be applied at the time of pick up. The guest assumes all responsibility for any expense or loss of time while travelling in restricted geographic areas.

Urban Restrictions
Parking of your vehicle is prohibited in the greater metropolitan areas of Montreal and Ottawa. This includes all pay parking lots, hotel parking lots, side streets, malls, etc. To travel into these areas, park your vehicle at a campsite and use public transportation, taxi, etc. In the event of a theft that occurs in the Montreal or Ottawa metropolitan area, the Guest is responsible for CAD $7,500.

Transfers
CanaDream does not offer transfers at any station. Guests picking up and dropping off at all stations should make their own arrangements to get to the station in time for their chosen pickup slot. The stations will be happy to assist in calling for a taxi at drop off.

Location Hours of Operation
Guests will receive an email confirming their pickup time within 48 hours of pick up and this can also be viewed in the online check portal.

Pick-up time is between:
13:00 and 16:00 Monday to Sunday
We are happy to offer an Early Pick Up ($75) which allows pick up between 10am and 12:30pm and is subject to availability slots.

Pick up takes roughly 30 minutes, unless a personal demonstration has been booked (takes an additional 30 minutes and at a cost of CAD $50).

Guests are advised against turning up early to attempt an early pick up, This can also result in a frustrating long wait for the Guests.

Drop-off Time is between:
08:00am and 10:00am Monday to Sunday
Late Drop off times are available in summer between 10am and 2:59pm for a fee of $75 per hour (Summer season). Late drop off availability is subject to vehicle operational and scheduling requirements. Complimentary late drop off is included until 1:59pm during the winter season.

Guests must vacate their vehicle before the end of the hour to avoid late drop off fees.

Drop Off Time Costs

Returning The RV
The RV is your home away from home and, for comfort, we recommend it’s kept tidy throughout the road trip. The RVs need to be returned to the station as they were collected, with the interior cleaned, dishes washed and put away and holding tanks emptied. The RV exterior does not require cleaning unless it’s covered with excessive dirt or mud, making it difficult for our team to see its return condition. We recommend Guests purchase Drop & Go to reduce the final cleaning burden. Fees will apply if the RV is not returned in the required condition.

Early Returns / Unused Kilometres
Sorry, there are no refunds for early returns and/or unused kilometers.

Smoking
Smoking, vaping, or using e-cigarettes are not allowed in our RV’s. A penalty of $1,000 will be imposed to cover the costs of sanitizing and cleaning the inside of the RV.

Animals
We are happy for Guests to bring a pet dog or cat (maximum 2 pets) on their vacation in our RV for a fee of CAD $350. Service animals can travel in our RV’s free of charge, upon presentation of the animal’s original certification documents. We ask for Guests to tell us in advance that they wish to bring their pet and require Guests to ensure their pet does not cause any damage to the vehicle. Should additional pet cleaning be required at drop off, additional cleaning charges will apply.

Driving Licence / Driver's Age

For translation purposes, an International Driver's License will ensure ease of use in Canada and the United States. Please note that an International License is not valid on its own for driving in Canada and the USA. The International License must also be accompanied by a valid driver's license issued in the Guest’s own country
  • Minimum age is 21. Only drivers listed on the contract are allowed to drive
  • Additional Driver Fee: CAD $5 per night for each additional driver.

Travel Restrictions
Not all RVs are suitable for all driving situations, so it’s important that the right RV is chosen for the travel planned. CanaDream, at its discretion, may restrict RV travel in certain areas due to adverse road and weather conditions and the distance to nominated destinations in relation to the length of the rental period.

For the safety of Guests, the following travel restrictions are in place:

  • Travel to Death Valley is limited to the low season (15 September through 15 May) due to extreme temperatures and road conditions
  • Travel on the Dempster Highway in the Yukon is not permitted between 15 September and 15 May due to road conditions. We are happy for our Guests to travel on this road between 16 May and 14 September
  • Travel to other remote areas not mentioned here may be possible, only if written permission is obtained from CanaDream prior to travel

Guests assume all responsibility for any expense or loss of time while traveling in restricted areas.

Whitehorse Surcharges
All rentals picking up in Whitehorse will incur a surcharge of CAD $300 to cover increased costs associated with rentals in the Yukon, such as increased costs for vehicle servicing, additional wear and tear, additional exterior, and interior cleaning due to excessive dirt and dust from the roads.

Permission is automatically granted to travel in the Yukon for pickups in Whitehorse except for the Prohibited Travel areas of the Dalton Highway (#11 north of Livengood), the Denali Highway in Alaska and the North Canol Highway in the Yukon. V

ehicles for northern travel must be expressly requested and confirmed at the time of reservation. Guests who travel to these areas without permission will be subject to a $900 penalty and will void all insurance coverage. CanaDream reserves the right to restrict driving access at anytime. These restrictions may be applied at the time of pick-up.

Festival Surcharge
CanaDream is happy for Guests to attend festivals from any of our locations with pre-authorized permission except for:

  • Burning Man Festival – CanaDream does not permit rental units to go to Burning Man festival in Nevada. A fine of $5,000 will be automatically charged to any booking that our geo tracking picks up in this area.

CanaDream reserves the right to alter or change the list of festivals affected by the surcharge.

Guests who take vehicles to festivals must request permission at the time of reservation.

Responsibility
If, for any reason beyond the company's control, the reserved vehicle is not available, CanaDream reserves the right to substitute a vehicle of equivalent value or offer a higher rated vehicle at no additional cost. Should a lower rated vehicle be substituted, the company's only responsibility is to refund the difference between the two vehicles. Although this is infrequent, accidents or mechanical repairs may force substitutions.

Child Seats General information
CanaDream is happy to offer an all-in-one child seat suitable for use as a rear facing infant seat, child seat and booster seat (the back does not detatch) for a fee. We recommend these are booked in advance of pick-up to ensure availability.

• All units are fitted with lap belts, except in the driver and passenger seats (3-point harness).

• Guests are welcome to bring their own child seat/s and are responsible for ensuring they comply with Canadian standards and regulations.

• Guests are responsible for the fitting of all child seats in the RV and are required to sign a waiver.

Child seat regulations for driving cars vary by province in Canada. Our guidelines are based on the most restrictive provincial motor vehicle regulations.

Availability of child seats are not guaranteed, and we highly recommend booking them at the same time as RV bookings.

Generator
Use of the Generator is charged at CAD $3.5 per hour between 01 May and 30 September and is paid upon drop-off (not pre-bookable). Generator useage is complimentary between 01 October – 30 April. (The TCA does not have a generator)

Levelling Blocks
We are pleased to offer a pack of leveling blocks for Guests to rent. Levelling blocks are positionned under the wheels to help level out a packed RV when parking on unevent ground. Guests must take care when positioning the levelling blocks.

Bike Racks
We are pleased to provide bike racks for rental along with our SVC, MH-B, MH-C, MH-A and MH-X units. The CanaDream premium bike rack is specially designed for RV’s and can hold up to 4 regular bikes (Not e-bikes). Guests who wish to use the rack for e-bikes should note there is a restricted weight limit on the rack of 100lbs in total weight.

Guests are fully responsible for the fitting of their bikes to the bike rack and are required to sign the Bike Rack acceptance as part of the Rental Agreement. CanaDream cannot be held responsible for any damage caused to any bikes on the rack. We also recommend Guests bring appropriate bike padlocks for securing their bikes when not in use. For liability purposes CanaDream does not permit the use of personal Bike Racks.

Winterisation
All Motorhomes must be winterized (water drained out) when travelling in freezing conditions, except for the Maxi Motorhome (MHA) which is specially built for winter conditions and allows for use of the water, toilet, and shower in freezing conditions.

Winterization of all other units requires that antifreeze is flushed through the plumbing system and no water facilities can be used i.e. no use of toilet, shower or kitchen sink.

As the weather in Canada can be unpredictable, CanaDream will winterize their units as the temperatures start to drop into the freezing zone.

As a guideline, RVs will be winterized:

  • Eastern stations (Toronto, Halifax & Montreal): from 15th October
  • Western Stations (Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton): from 1st October

Once the RV is winterized, no water can be put into the freshwater tank, and it cannot be hooked up to any water supply. Therefore, no water is available in the motorhome.

It is the Guests’ responsibility to have the RV winterized while on a trip at his/her own expense should the weather conditions require. The Guest is also financially responsible for having the RV re-winterized on the return trip if the RV was winterized at the time of pick-up and the vehicle is being returned in freezing temperatures.

A $150 re-winterization fee will be charged if the RV is returned non-winterized when the temperature is -10 degrees Celsius or below.

The Guest will be fully responsible for any damages to the plumbing and water systems caused by freezing during their trip.

Change to Drop-off Location after Pick-up
If a Guest wishes to change their drop-off location after pick-up, they should get in touch with our friendly Reservations Team who will be happy to help. Our team will advise the Guest if the change is possible and if a relocation fee applies. Any fees would be charged directly to the Guest.

Extending a Road Trip
If a Guest wishes to extend their booking whilst on hire, they must first obtain authorization from CanaDream Reservations who will advise of the additional costs - extensions cannot be made through a wholesaler. Rental extension is subject to fleet availability. The extra cost of an extended booking must be paid by credit card over the telephone or at a CanaDream location immediately on confirmation of the booking extension.

Change of RV
We do our very best to ensure each Guest receives the vehicle category they booked, we cannot confirm or guarantee a unit by make or model. We always do our best to accommodate special requests.

Should the booked RV not be available due to unforeseen circumstances or operational challenges, we will substitute the booked RV with an alternative available at the time of pick-up. We will do our best to communicate any changes to the booked vehicle to you or to the Guest in advance of pick up but this is not always possible. Any changes to the booked RV and agreed to by or requested by the Guest do not entitle the Guest to a refund.

Special Request
We ask that any special requests for Guest are sent alongside the booking, so we can confirm if their request is possible. We will always do our best to help wherever possible.

Powered Site and Ferry Bookings
It can be difficult to book a full-service campsite or a ferry during high season. We recommend Guests make a reservation for at least a 33ft RV, irrespective of the size of the motorhome reserved to avoid problems due to possible upgrades. Powered sites will require a 30-amp connection.

Repairs
We understand that while on holiday the RV may require small repairs or small items included in the Kitchen Kit may need to be replaced. So as not to disturb the road trip any further, if the damage was not caused by the Guest, repairs, or replacements up to CAD $150 can be completed without authorisation and will be reimbursed on presentation of the original receipts at time of drop off. If repairs or replacements over CAD $150 are needed, the CanaDream On-road Team needs to be informed prior to the repair being completed. All RVs are covered for 24/7 mechanical emergency roadside assistance.

Infringements, Tolls and Fees
CanaDream will pass on any charges the Guest receives for traffic infringements, road tolls or parking fines during your road trip. If the Gust pays these fines immediately, there will be no additional administration fees. However, if the Guest delays in paying the fine we reserve the right to charge an administration fee.

Fuel
CanaDream makes no representation as to fuel consumption. Vehicles are supplied with a minimum ¼ tank. If the Guest returns with less fuel than on departure, they will be charged for that amount of fuel at CanaDream’s refuelling rate. There is no refund if you return with more fuel than on departure. During the Winter Season fuel tanks may be provided full and should then be returned full.

Shortening of Rental Period
If you shorten your hire period by more than a week - it may be treated as a cancellation of the whole booking and a re-booking. This depends on when the amendment takes place and how many days of hire are being cancelled. Please ensure you always have travel insurance in place.

Travel Insurance
CanaDream strongly recommends that Guests ensure they take out the highest level of personal Travel Insurance to cover and protect them from unexpected circumstances on their vacation.

Payments at Stations
For security reasons, CanaDream will only accept credit card or debit card for rental charges paid on RV pick-up or drop-off. Cash payments will not be accepted at rental stations. The Security deposit on the RV must be paid on a credit card. We accept: Visa, Mastercard & American Express.

Exchange Rate
All transactions are conducted in CAD $. Due to exchange rate fluctuations, there could be some variance in the amount refunded compared to the amount initially charged. Refunds by credit card can take up to 14 business days, depending on the Guest's financial institution.

At CanaDream, we understand that sometimes things change. If this is the case, any changes made to a booking will be calculated by using the higher one of the two rates, either the original Flex Rate or the Flex Rate current at the time of the booking alteration.

Please note:
• There is no refund for late pickup or early return of the motorhome

• Changes can be made for travel up to 12 months
• Any credits applied to a booking will have 12 months validity from the original date of pick up.
