One walk at each end of the trip.

Campervan hire often holds a deposit of €500 to €2,000 on your card. Walk once around the van at the depotand again when you bring it back, and ProofSpin keeps a sealed record of every side, so a deduction weeks later meets the van as you returned it.

What's different with a van

Your first trip is free: both walks, kept on your phone. No sign-up.

Depot pickup

A white touring caravan on a gravel pitch, seen from its rear-left corner — Pickup, from an illustrative sample walk.

A busy yard, a long briefing on the gas and the water, and a diagram that already has a dozen marks on it.

Walk once around the van before you leave. ProofSpin takes a photo every few degrees as you go and tells you before you stop if a side is missing. Add close-ups of the awning, the side door and step, and any chip in the windscreen, then photograph the agreement and the odometer. The agreement stays private when you share.

Days 1–14

The road

Gravel roads, low branches and tight caravan park bays. Then you forget about the pickup.

16:30

Return

Out: Day 1 09:00
In: Day 14 16:30

The depot closes at 17:00 and someone is already walking the van with a checklist. ProofSpin it yourself too. The return is linked to the pickup, so both walks of the van sit together.

The deduction

€600 taken from your deposit for a scratch on the rear corner panel.

The scratch was there at pickup. Add the rear corner's close-ups from both walks to an evidence pack, and ProofSpin makes one PDF with both photos, the times they were taken and their fingerprints, ready for the hire company or your excess insurer.

What's different with a van

Roof: A walk from the ground can't see the roof, and some cover excludes roof and underbody damage. Ask for the roof's condition to be written on the pickup sheet, and photograph that sheet.
Awning, door and step: Take close-ups at pickup. Each one is pinned to the side of the van it's on.
Windscreen: Long drives mean chips. A close-up of any chip at pickup shows it was already there.
Deposit and excess: Often €500 to €2,000, held on your card, depending on the cover you choose. It varies by company; check your agreement.
Cost: A trip is one rental. Your first is free, and cloud for one rental (€3.99) is needed only if a deduction arrives. See all prices.
