By Rudi Williams American Forces Press Service ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 5, 2001 -- The mobile home lifestyle strikes the fancies and suits the pocketbooks of many service members and DoD civilian employees. And some relish the idea of taking their homes with them when they change duty stations at government expense. But Military Traffic Transportation Command officials warn: "History has shown that moving your mobile home will most likely result in excess transportation costs, which you are responsible for paying." And, they said, that cost could run over $1,000. The government will only pay up to what it costs to ship the members household goods weight allowance to the next duty station. Last year, 97 service members moved their trailers. Many more got rid of their trailers because of the high cost of moving them. For example, a married E-4 with four years of service and two children and a trailer home is authorized to ship 8,000 pounds of household goods. Transportation officials calculate that shipping the trailer and packing and unpacking rates would be $37.80 per 100 pounds, which results in the government paying up to $3,024 for the move. Based on the weight of the household goods, the shipping cost comes to $1,532, which means the service member's out-of-pocket cost to ship the mobile home is $1,492. DoD civilian employees are authorized to ship their mobile homes as long as it's included in their permanent change of station orders, according to Dennis Barborak, an MTMC traffic management specialist. "Those who want to ship a mobile home must own it or have permission from the lien holder to move it," Barborak said. He said safety-wise, the body and chassis of the mobile home, including tires and tubes, must be roadworthy and will withstand the rigors of the move. The home must also meet the size and weight limitations imposed by the state to which it's being shipped. Mobile homes can be shipped to and from duty stations in the continental United States and Alaska with the government paying for transportation and accessorial services. "But the government will not pay for replacement parts, brake repairs, tires and repairs and maintenance performed en route, except for labor cost to repair tires and inner tubes," said Gail Collier, another traffic management specialist. Collier said eligible service members and civilian employees have three options to ship their mobile home: "Owners can tow their mobile home and file for reimbursement," Collier said. "They should keep receipts of such expenses as fuel, oil, tolls, parking, permits and escort services, to support their claim for reimbursement." Another option is to have the government arrange the move. The local transportation office and the commercial carrier assumes most of the responsibility. However, the owner is responsible for ensuring that the mobile home is roadworthy, it complies with state codes, has the required primary axles, tires and brakes and is mechanically sound. The third option is to obtain written authorization from the local transportation office to draw an advance mobile home allowance from the government. Collier emphasized that mobile home owners must obtain an itemized invoice identifying all costs incurred from the carrier and promptly settle the account with the finance office after completing the move. Regardless of the method used, those who ship mobile homes are covered by the Military Personnel and Civilian Employees' Claims Act for loss and damage during transit. However, homeowners must be able to show that they didn't contribute to the loss or damage. The government will pay for mobile home carrier's transportation charges, including movement via a circuitous route, when required. DoD will also pay for bridge, road and tunnel tolls, ferry fares, state or local transit permits and oversize charges and permits. The government will further cover labor costs for removal and installation of skirting, clocking, unanchoring and anchoring, packing and unpacking of household goods in the mobile home, repairing tires, disconnecting and connecting utilities, disassembling and reassembling expando or fold-out rooms and renting extra axles with wheels and tires attached. This covers costs associated with movement of a doublewide mobile home. "Usually personal property inside the mobile home that was not factory installed may not be shipped due to safety reasons," Collier said. Barborak said there are many items that shouldn't be left inside when shipping your trailer. These include, concrete blocks, skirting, metal awnings, steps, fences, central air conditioners, garden storage sheds, swing sets, satellite dishes, outside television antennas and yard and porch furniture. Other items that shouldn't be left inside a mobile home include snowmobiles, motorcycles, motorbikes, bicycles, lawn mowers or heavy tool chests. The no-no list also includes fuel, ammunition, flammables, waterbeds and full aquariums, and live animals and plants or flower boxes. Barborak also advises removing such valuables as money, bonds, stocks, jewelry and furs. "The carrier will not be liable in any way for intangible property, nor for the intrinsic or sentimental value of an item," Barborak emphasized. "Service members need to be aware that they're responsible for meeting certain restrictions on such structural designs and the roof and heating and cooling system for the area they're moving to," Collier said. "Failing to do so may mean that the destination county may refuse hook up to water and electricity. A service member is entitled to Storage-In-Transit of their mobile home up to 90 days. An additional 90 days may be authorized for conditions beyond the members control. Storage may also be authorized for local moves if the owner is ordered to vacate the premises by the commanding officer of the installation. "If an emergency or hardship arises, the owner should request a 90-day extension," Collier said. "But, no matter what the circumstances, the government will not pay for more than 180 days. After that, the owner must pay the cost of further storage." Mobile home owners can get a copy of "Moving Your Mobile Home" pamphlet at: http://www.belvoir.army.mil/jppsowa/HomeCore.htm . A copy of the pamphlet can also be obtained at local transportation offices.

Email Print RSS How to Rent a Recreational Vehicle By Harry Basch & Shirley Slater May 5, 2004 May 2004 -- For a first-time RV traveler, renting a unit of the same type you're thinking of buying can be an invaluable help in making up your mind. Just be sure to allow enough time -- a week is the minimum, 2 weeks is better -- to get comfortable with the day-to-day logistics of handling it on the road and hooking it up in the campground. Our own first RV experience was a 6-week lease on a 27-foot motor home because of a book assignment that required us to visit more than 100 remote ski areas. If we'd been renting it for only a few days, we'd probably have turned it back in and said RVing was not for us. When they heard about our plans, well-meaning friends regaled us with their experiences. A West Los Angeles bookstore owner took her family out for a month, but they used the RV only for travel and sleeping. "We never cooked a single meal inside," she said. "It seemed too complicated." A couple from San Diego had tried a rented motor home for 2 days, then, frustrated by slow road speeds, turned it back in and set out in their Mercedes 300 SL instead. But even that's a record compared to a short-tempered lawyer and his wife, who rented an RV for a weekend and gave it up less than an hour into the trip. Note that in none of these cases did the user give the vehicle the old college try. When to Rent Rather Than Buy When setting out on your very first RV journey. When considering replacing your current RV with a different type. When your family can only take a 2-week vacation once a year but wants to do it in an RV. That way you can test drive different models, and when you decide to buy, you'll have plenty of experience. When you want to travel several weeks far from home -- say, in a distant part of the United States -- or take a camping trip in Europe. Popular fly-and-drive packages are available from many companies. When you want to drive the Alaska Highway in one direction only and/or without subjecting your own vehicle to inescapable wear and tear. Simple Ways to Sample Campground Life With Accommodations Similar to RVs 1. Check into a Kamping Kabin or Kamping Kottage at a nearby Kampgrounds of America ( www.koa.com ) campground. Kamping Kabins, one- and two-room rustic log cabins with porches and double beds plus bunk beds, can sleep four for $20 to $30 a night. Kamping Kottages offer a kitchenette, dining area, bathroom with shower, and sleeping quarters for four, with porch swing and sometimes fireplaces and air conditioners. It's a good introduction to camping, especially for families with kids. The fee includes use of the campground's toilet and shower facilities, pool, playground, laundry, and store. The Kabins do not have bathrooms, but an outdoor grill and picnic table are provided. You need to bring your own bedding, lantern, and cooking utensils. Get a full list of locations from KOA, free at any KOA campground or by sending $4 to KOA Directory, P.O. Box 30558, Billings, MT 59114. You can call its administration offices at 406/248-7444 . 2. Call around to the campgrounds in your area or the area you'd like to visit and ask if they have any rental RV units. Sometimes a popular area may offer RVs already in place and hooked up and available for rent by the night. Outdoor World has a network of 15 campgrounds on the East Coast from Maine to Florida that offers RV rental units where you can sample RV living without owning. Their website has complete details on all the campgrounds. Contact them for details and rates at P.O. Box 447, Bushkill, PA 18324 (tel. 800/446-0229; www.resortsusa.com/ow_vac.php . 3. Book the family into Fort Wilderness at Walt Disney World in Orlando. Lodging is in Fleetwood park trailers with full kitchens and bathrooms, similar to travel trailers but set in place for a season or longer. Although you won't be able to road test the vehicle, you can determine how well your family fits into an RV. The cost-with air-conditioning, pool privileges, cable TV, cookware, and housekeeping services-is around $269 a night for a party of six with two adults. It's a good idea to reserve well ahead. For reservations call 407/934-7639 or 407/WDW-CAMP or log-on to www.disney.com ). Where & How to Rent Reserve a rental RV at least a month in advance, 3 months during peak vacation time. If planning to rent in Alaska, reserve 6 to 12 months ahead. A great many rental RVs are booked by European and Australian visitors to the United States who want to be able to see our national parks or drive along the coast of California. The most common unit available for rental is the motor home, either the larger type A or the type C mini-motor home, which accounts for 90% of all rentals. Prices begin at around $875 a week. Use of the generator is not usually included in the fee. You would need it only for operating the ceiling air-conditioning, microwave, and TV in a place without electrical hookups, and the dealer will know how much time you've logged by reading the generator counter, usually located by the on/off switch. When you find a company that rents travel trailers, you'll find they usually require that you furnish your own tow vehicle, hitch, and electrical hookups on the tow vehicle. Some companies offer a furnishings package with bedding, towels, dishes, cooking pots, and utensils for a flat price of around $85 per trip. Other add-on kits are those containing power cords and hoses, plastic trash bags, toilet chemicals, and a troubleshooting guide. Be sure you're provided with a full set of instruction booklets and emergency phone numbers in case of a breakdown. Best of all is to have a 24-hour emergency 800 number in case of a problem. When in doubt, ask a fellow RVer what to do. They're always glad to help, but sometimes hesitant to offer for fear of offending. No matter how much you bustle around like you know what you're doing, the veterans in the campground can spot a goof-up a mile away. Before setting out, be sure the dealer demonstrates all the components and systems of your unit. Take careful notes, and, just as with rental cars, check for dents and damage from prior use before leaving the lot. Get a detailed list of what furnishings are included in your rental so you'll know what necessary items you have to supply. It may be easier to bring things from home than spend vacation time searching for them on the road. How to Locate RV Rental Companies www.rvra.org ). You'll find a directory that lists addresses, phone numbers, and prices for European, Canadian, and U.S. companies listed by city and state or province. There is also a companion page, Rental Ventures, with additional helpful information. Write to them at RVRA, 3930 University Dr., Fairfax, VA 22030-2525. For rental information, call 888/467-8464; www.rvra.org . Cruise America, the largest rental company with more than 100 outlets, has added budget items such as camping vans, fully equipped travel trailers, and fold-out truck campers with compact pickups to tow them, to answer the requests from European campers in America, who are responsible for one-half to two-thirds of the company's rentals. Rentals will range from $875 to $1,895 a week (tel. 800/327-7799; www.cruiseamerica.com . Adventures Rental in Ontario, California, claims to have the largest trailer rental department in the United States, offering folding camping trailers from $350 a week and travel trailers from $575 a week. No rentals are made to anyone under 25. Renters supply tow vehicle, hitch and electrical connections, bedding, and utensils. A cleaning deposit is required and forfeited if the vehicle is not returned clean; the company has its own dump stations for holding tanks. Call them at 909/983-2567 for details. Altman's Winnebago in Carson, California (tel. 800/400-0787 or 310/518-6182; www.altmans.com ), has type A and type C new motor homes for rent. A typical rental charge for a small type C motor home would be around $692 to $1,158 a week. Rental of a type A motor home would run around $1,350 a week. Additional charges would be $15 a day insurance, $6 a day generator fee, and optional charges for kitchen kit (pots, dishes, glasses, $42 per trip) and bedroom kit (bedding and towels, $59 a person per trip). Your local yellow pages should also carry a listing for rentals under "Recreation Vehicle-Rentals." Many rental companies offer free airport pickup and return, if you notify them ahead of time of your flight number and estimated arrival time. Finally, if you fall in love with your rental vehicle (as we did our first one), you might be able to negotiate a purchase price that would subtract your rental fee from the total. If the vehicle is a couple of years old, the price should be even lower, since most dealers get rid of vehicles after 2 or 3 years. Insider Tips -- Normally, insurance on a rental RV is not covered on your personal automobile insurance, so ask your agent for a binder that extends your coverage to the RV for the full rental period. Many dealers require the binder before renting you a vehicle. Read your instruction sheets and checklists through at least once before setting out, then daily before hooking up and unhooking until you know the whole routine. Otherwise, you may -- as we did that first time -- drive miles out of your way to an RV dealer to find out why your generator doesn't work, only to learn it never works when your gas level drops below one-quarter of a tank.

Altman's Winnebago, 45 units in Carson, California, near LAX (tel. 310/518-6182; www.altmans.com ). Five Money-Saving Rental Tips Check prices with several companies before making a decision. Establish exactly what the lowest-priced rental will include, such as free miles, amenities like dishes and linens, and breakdown service. Try to plan your trip for shoulder season or off-season. This may vary seasonally, depending on the rental area. Check in advance to see if your own automobile insurance agent will cover your rental insurance. He can usually do it more cheaply than the rental company. Try to plan a loop trip from the area where the rental unit is based to avoid drop-off charges. On long, major journeys such as Alaska or Baja California, you might want to pay the drop-off charge and fly back rather than repeat the arduous drive back to the beginning. Negotiate based on selection. The more units a company has, the wider your choice, but if you're flexible about what sort of rig you rent, you may be able to negotiate a better price if the selection is limited.
