Now that Classic Camper Hire has an ongoing relationship with the DSTV travel programme Vrydag4Uur, as a result of the exposure we are getting I'm getting quite a few enquiries about classic VW kombi camper hire in Johannesburg and Durban. I have no plans to open a branch in Jhb or Durban, but it may be viable for me to enter into a partnership deal with 3-4 VW camper owners in these cities who are keen to generate some extra income from their vehicles.

Essentially, a Classic Camper Hire partner located in Jhb or Durban would enter into an agreement to add his camper to our fleet on a profit share basis. Partners would be responsible for the maintenance of their own vehicle of course, as well as insurance. Classic Camper Hire would manage the hiring side of things, such as marketing, website inclusion, bookings, payments, etc. For this we would take a cut of 30% of the R 850/day hire fee, leaving the partner with R 600/day on a short-term hire (this drops down as the hire period extends - our lowest rate is R 700/day, so on a 14 day+ hire the owner would get out R 490/day. When a partner's camper is hired, he would simply arrange with the hirer a collection and drop off point. We charge a R 7500 deposit to cover damage/insurance excess and to date we have not had to make any claims, other than for tow-ins for the odd breakdown.

If there are any forum members interested in possibly becoming a partner, please email me on: classiccamperhire@mweb.co.za. to discuss the matter further.
