This Is Why You Should Sell Your RV

RV consignments - Nohrs RV

Now is the perfect time for RV consignments. Demand is on the rise and manufacturing is struggling to replenish stocks. People with a motorhome, fifth wheel, or camper trailer they had been thinking about selling are well-advised to consider right now as the time to get it done.


Why Use RV Consignments?

By placing your RV with a dealer experienced in RV consignments, you can make the sale faster, get more for it, and eliminate the associated hassles like marketing, showing the vehicle, and the paperwork involved in the sale. Additionally, the best RV dealers have on-site maintenance and repair facilities, allowing you to get necessary repairs done and increase your asking price, as well as giving your RV a complete inspection and prepping it for quick sales.

Why is Now the Time to Sell?

COVID-19 has hit U.S. manufacturing hard, causing a halt in production for recreational items from bicycles to RVs, and affecting the availability of electronics, vehicle parts, and more. As the country reopens, the summer demand for RVs is resulting in empty sales lots and growing demand for motorhomes and camper trailers. Manufacturing should be back on track later this year, and that makes now the best time you will see for RV consignments.

Before You Sell Your RV

To get the best value for your RV, put some effort into making it look as fresh and clean as possible, inside and out. A lot of the detailing you can do yourself, or bring your RV in for a professional detail before it goes on the lot. Prepping your RV includes things like checking and changing the fluids, checking the brakes and tires, and making sure that all equipment is in good working condition. What you can expect to get for your RV is heavily affected by the condition it is sold in, so use a checklist to cover everything from top to bottom.

Choosing an RV Dealer

Your best RV consignment option is with a well-established RV dealer in your area. Nohr’s RV Center, for example, is centrally located for the Bay Area and has an active reputation that can be traced back to the 1970s. An established dealer offers other benefits as well, such as being able to walk you through the sales process in advance, customer-oriented tips for faster sales, and a hassle-free check available when the sale is finalized.

Instead of allowing your seldom-used RV to waste away where it is parked, the time is right for RV consignments. Through professional high-exposure consignment sales, you can put your RV into the hands of someone who needs one, all without having to wade through red-tape or even interacting with the public-at-large.
