How to update each of the listing tabs

To help you navigate your listing management, here is a quick overview of how to update each tab. Refer to the sections below to learn about specific fields and buttons, and how you can use them to keep your listing accurate and competitive.

Vehicle Tab

The Vehicle Tab ensures your rig matches the Guest’s technical needs and safety requirements. Think of this as your RV's technical resume—getting these details dialed in ensures your Guests feel confident behind the wheel and know exactly what to expect before they pull out of the driveway.

Note: Before you start, ensure that you click the Edit button to enter "Edit mode." Once you are finished with your updates, be sure to click the Save button to lock in your changes.

Vehicle Information Section

Getting these details dialed in—from the bumper-to-bumper length to the specific transmission type—ensures your Guests feel confident behind the wheel and know exactly what to expect before they pull out of the driveway

• Type: Select the category that best describes your vehicle (e.g., Class A, Class C, Travel Trailer).

• Year: The manufacturing year of your RV as listed on your title or registration.

• Make: The brand or manufacturer of your RV (e.g., Airstream, Winnebago, Forest River).

• Model: The specific name or number assigned to your RV series.

• Trim: This specifies the sub-model or "edition," which often dictates the interior floor plan and features.

• Length: Enter the total length from bumper to bumper. This is vital for Guests checking campsite size limits!

• Gross vehicle weight (GVW): The maximum weight of the RV when fully loaded. This helps Guests determine if their tow vehicle is capable.

• Transmission: This field only appears if the RV is drivable. Indicate here if the vehicle is Automatic or Manual.

• Fuel type: This field only appears if the RV is drivable. Specify here if it runs on Gasoline, Diesel, or Electric

• Slideout: Select how many sections of the RV expand outward to provide extra living space. Options include: No slide-outs, driver side, passenger side, or rear side.

• Month of insurance renewal: Indicate when your primary insurance policy renews to help the platform ensure continuous coverage. You can select any month from January to December.

Towing Information Section (For Towable RVs)

These fields will only appear and are only applicable if you select a towable RV. This ensures the Guest's vehicle is properly equipped to move your rig safely.

• Connector type: Select the radio button that matches your trailer's electrical plug

  • 7-pin

  • 4-pin

• Break controller details: Confirm if you will provide a portable brake controller if the Guest doesn't have one installed in their vehicle. Select the applicable radio button:

  • Yes, I’ll provide (recommended): Select this if you have a unit available for Guests to use.

  • No, the Guest must install before departure: Select this if the Guest is responsible for their own braking system.

• Receiver details: Confirm if you will provide the hitch receivers to match the Guest’s vehicle.

  • Yes (recommended): Select this if you provide the necessary hitch hardware.

  • No, the Guest must provide: Select this if the Guest must bring their own compatible receiver.

  Pro Tip: Providing a Brake Controller and Receiver is highly recommended. It makes your listing much more "turn-key" for Guests who might have a capable truck but don't own specific towing hardware.

Tank Capacity Section

Accuracy in your Tank Capacity Section is the secret to a seamless trip. Providing precise volumes for your fresh, gray, and black water tanks ensures your Guests can manage their resources with confidence while they’re out chasing the horizon.

Uploading A Photo

• Direct Upload: Click the Upload button to select and add photos directly from your current device.

• Upload from Another Device: Want to move photos from your phone to your desktop listing?

  • Click the "Upload from another device" link.

  • Check your registered email for a secure link.

    Open that link on your other device to instantly sync your photos to the gallery.

Note: Using the email link is the fastest way to get those high-res mobile shots into your listing without needing to cord-connect or cloud-sync manually.

Deleting A Photo

Need to clear out some old shots? Here is how to tidy up your gallery:

• Standard Photos: Hover your mouse over the image you want to remove. Click the three dots (⋮) icon that appears and select Delete.

• The "Hero" Photo: Your primary listing photo cannot be deleted while it is in the "Hero" slot. To remove or update it:

  • Drag and drop a different photo into the Hero position to replace it.

  • Once the old photo is moved to a standard slot, follow the standard deletion steps above.

Rearranging Your Photo Gallery

Want to change the story your gallery tells? You can reorder your photos in seconds:

• Click & Drag: Simply click on any photo and drag it to its new position.

• Intuitive Flow: The gallery will automatically shift other photos to accommodate the new layout based on where you drop the image.

• Instant Sync: No need to look for a "Save" button—your new arrangement is saved automatically the moment you let go.

Pro Tip: Group your photos logically. Start with the best exterior shot (your Hero), followed by the main living area, the kitchen, and finally the sleeping quarters. This helps Guests "walk through" the RV in their minds!

Linking a YouTube Video

While you cannot upload video files directly to the platform, you can easily link a YouTube video to your listing. This is a fantastic way to give Guests a "live" feel of the space and functionality of your RV.

1. Navigate to your listing's Photos tab.

2. Scroll down until you see the "Add YouTube Video" section.

3. Paste your link: Insert your RV's YouTube URL into the input field.

4. Save: Click the "Add Video" button.

Pro Tip: Adding a video can showcase your RV's functionality and help build Guest trust. For best results, you can keep your video short and sweet! A 1 to 2-minute walkthrough is usually the "sweet spot" for keeping a potential Guest's attention.

Enabling Guest-Submitted Photos

You don’t have to upload these yourself. Once enabled, photos submitted by Guests through their reviews can appear on your listing:

1. Navigate to your listing's Photos tab.

2. Scroll down to the "Guest submitted photos" section.

3. Toggle the switch to "On" to allow these photos to be displayed publicly.

Amenities tab

You can update your RV amenities under this tab. Refer to the following categories below (e.g., Bedroom, Bathroom, Kitchen, etc.), then tick the boxes under them.

Note: Before you start, ensure that you click the Edit button to enter "Edit mode." Once you are finished with your updates, be sure to click the Save button to lock in your changes.

• Bedroom

  • Linens

    Note: When you select "Linens" to be added to  your listing, you'll be given three options you can choose from:

    • Included: Select this option if linens are part of your nightly rate or prep fee.
    • Paid Add-on:  Select this option if you offer linens as an optional extra for a fee.

    • Not Provided: Select this option if Guests must bring their own (best for rugged or pop-up rentals).

      Note: If you choose Paid Add-on, remember to head over to the Add-ons Tab after saving your changes here to create the add-on and set your specific pricing it.

Note: Before you start, ensure that you click the Edit button to enter "Edit mode." Once you are finished with your updates, be sure to click the Save button to lock in your changes.

• Pricing

  • Minimum stay: This determines the minimum number of nights you set for your rentals. Set your Minimum stay (using the - and + buttons).

  • Nightly rate field: Enter your nightly rate or base rental amount into the input field.

  • State fee toggle button: Outdoorsy automatically collects and remits transactional taxes for most states. Check our to see if your state is covered; if a mandatory tax or local fee isn’t listed, please use the State fee toggle to add it manually.

• Prep fee

  • Prep fee toggle button: Toggle this to charge for the time and supplies spent preparing and sanitizing your rig. This covers essentials like kitchenware, toilet paper, and cleaning supplies. 

    Pro tip: Ensure these costs are not already included in your nightly rate.

• Security deposit

  • Security deposit field:  Enter the refundable amount you wish to require. Outdoorsy collects this from the Guest two days before the trip to cover ancillary charges like interior damage or cleaning fees. If costs exceed the deposit, Outdoorsy can assist with Guest resolution.

    • Offer Security Deposit Waiver to Guests tick box: Check this box to give Guests more booking flexibility. To learn how this works, see our Help Center article What is a Security Deposit Waiver, and what does it mean for my listings?

• Mileage
  • Allow unlimited miles radio button: Select this if you want to allow unlimited miles when a Guest choose to drive or tow your RV (best for trailers). 
  • Set my own charge radio button: If you want to set your own charges, you can select this, then input values into:
    • Included miles field: Enter how many miles are included per day before extra charges apply. (Recommended: 200 miles/day)

    • Cost for extra miles field: Set the per-mile fee for exceeding the daily limit. (Recommended: $0.35/mile)

      Pro tip: If you set your own mileage charges, you can easily collect fees at the end of every rental. See our Help Center article Now it's easier to charge for extra miles and generator hours to learn how it works.

• Generator
  • I don’t have a generator: Select this radio button if you don't have a generator to offer 
  • Allow unlimited hours: Choose this if you have a generator and wish to provide unlimited usage to your Guests for a worry-free experience.
  • Set my own charges: Select this if you want to set a specific limit for free usage.
    • Included hours field: Specify the number of hours Guests can use the generator per day before additional fees apply.

    • Amount for extra hours field: Set the hourly rate for usage that exceeds your daily limit.

      Pro Tip: If you're allowing "boondocking" (off-grid camping) on your listing, offering a few included hours per day is a great way to make your listing more attractive while still protecting your equipment.
