Heard Blum and CW mention on the podcast that Plaza RV rents out RVs with dropoff and pickup. Curious if others also rent their RVs or have done this before. Was it expensive to do? Cheaper to tow it there yourself? Seems like an intriguing idea.
RV Rental

We’ve done it since we moved to the RV village last year. The Edwards’ are great to work with and the pricing is very fair.
Got a quote from Plaza the other day. $600 (bumper hitch) or a $1000 (5th wheel) for the weekend. Doesn’t include the rv spot. Apparently they have a few rv spots themselves but they were already spoken for for most of the games.
A week from now you'll be able to drive in and out of there with no problem would be my guess. Saw a picture from there with a Jeep buried deep, that one is either going to take a lot of labor or a healthy towing bill.
I have been renting my camper for about 5 or so years now and have paid for my camper and storage fees year in and year out. Once you build up a good clientele it is not bad.
One word of advice that I got from someone, that I will always pass on is don't be the cheapest. If you are the cheapest you will get people that don't care about your stuff and won't take care of it. If anyone has further questions on how I do it feel free to ask.
Also, as mentioned above, there are sites like RV Share and Outdoorsy where you can rent RV's or put your RV on to rent. I do it all myself.

DM Blum. I did awhile back and got good info on this. I didn't end up pulling the trigger but got the info I needed.
Sent you a DM. I know someone who has rented our their RV for a few games this year. They are in Ames so it's a pretty smooth process.
We try to make 1 make a year and when we do, we rent an RV/Camper from RV Share.
Fly in from Arizona on Thursday, have the Camper/RV dropped off on Friday afternoon, have a great Friday night and football Saturday, Camper/RV owner picks it up Sunday morning, we fly back home.
Makes it extremely easy and fun.
