How Much Does It Cost to Rent a UTV? Simple Guide for You
Do you want to ride fast and have fun outside? A UTV or side-by-side lets you go on big adventures! But how much does it cost to rent a UTV? Let’s find out together. I’ll make it easy for you. At the end, you will know what dollars to bring, what to look for, and how CLW GROUP makes everything easy for you!
What is a UTV? Why Do People Want to Rent One?
A UTV (Utility Terrain Vehicle) is a strong car for trails, mud, dunes, and fun roads. Maybe you heard of Polaris RZR, Can-Am Defender, Yamaha YXZ, or Honda Talon. These are some cool UTVs! Some UTVs are for just 2 people, some fit 4, some have room for 6! UTVs can go up tall hills, over rocks, and even through sand dunes like in Glamis, California, or forests in Moab, Utah.
People rent UTVs because they want fun, but they do not want to buy or keep one. Renting is easy. It is also safer. Kids must wear helmets and grownups sign a paper called a waiver.
What Is the Price to Rent a UTV? Here’s the Simple List
UTV rental prices can be different. Why? It depends on the season, your group size, the kind of UTV, and how long you will ride. See this easy table:
How Long | UTV Size or Type | Base Price Range | Extra Costs to Remember |
---|---|---|---|
Half Day | 2-Seater | $200 – $350 | Insurance: $30-$50; Deposit: $500+ |
(4 hours) | 4-Seater | $250 – $450 | Fuel pay; Cleaning: $50+ sometimes |
Premium Seater | $300 – $500+ | Higher deposit and insurance | |
Full Day | 2-Seater | $300 – $550 | Insurance: $40-$60; Deposit: $500+ |
(8 hours) | 4-Seater | $400 – $700 | Fuel pay; Cleaning: $50 – $150 |
Premium 4-6 Seat | $500 – $1000+ | Bigger deposit: $1000+ | |
2 Days | 4-Seater | $700 – $1200+ | Insurance: $80-$120 |
Premium/6-Seater | $1000 – $1800+ | Higher everything 🙂 | |
Guided Tour | Per Person | $150 – $400+ each | Guide, gear, fuel included |
Base means the starting price. You might need to pay more for things like insurance, a security deposit, fuel, cleaning, helmet rental, and permits. Always ask the rental company what is included so you won’t be surprised!
What Changes the Cost? Watch Out for These Things
Many things can make the price go up or down! Here is what you need to keep in mind:
- Type, Model, and Size: A simple utility UTV is cheaper. Want a fast Polaris RZR or a big Kawasaki KRX? That will cost more.
- How Many Seats: 2-seaters cost less. 4 or 6 seaters cost more.
- Where You Are Riding: Moab, Glamis, Arizona, Tennessee, Colorado, and Utah all have different prices. Popular places cost more!
- Season: Holidays, summer, or big trail events are peak season and cost more. Go in the off-season or on a weekday to save money.
- Rental Time: The longer you go, the better the per-day cost, but your total cost is higher.
- Guided Tour or Self-Guided: If you pay for a guide, you get help, no need to know the trail, and sometimes get gear included.
What Extra Things Must You Pay? (They Add Up!)
Let’s break down the extra fees. Here is what you need to look out for:
How To Figure Your Total UTV Rental Cost
Here is an easy formula:
Total UTV Cost = Base Rate + Insurance + Deposit (refundable) + Fuel + Cleaning Fee + Gear + Permits + Taxes
Let’s look at a real example. You want to rent a 4-seater in Moab for a full day. The list:
- Base Price: $500
- Insurance: $60
- Deposit: $1000 (returned at the end if no problems)
- Fuel: $40
- Cleaning Fee: $0 (if you clean it!)
- Helmet Use: Included
- Permits: $20
- Tax: $60
So, you pay $500 + $60 + $1000 + $40 + $20 + $60 = $1680 up front!
But, if you bring back the UTV clean and undamaged, you get the $1000 deposit back. That means real cost = $680 for your fun day! Always plan for the deposit.
How Can You Save Money on UTV Rental?
Here are tips to help you save:
- Ride on weekdays or off-season.
- Compare prices from different companies.
- Always check what is included—gear, fuel, fees, and insurance.
- Clean the UTV before returning it.
- Travel with friends and share a group rate.
- Ask if there are discounts or lower rates for longer rental periods.
