Hi and thanks so much for trusting Outdoors Geek to provide great gear for your upcoming adventure! To help ensure you have a fun worry-free trip, we provide optional insurance coverage for both your rental gear, and possible itinerary changes you may run into. Outlined below are our insurance options, Trip Insurance covers changes to plans, and Gear Insurance covers possible damage to your rental gear. Please see the Trip Insurance blurb, and the Gear Insurance chart for explanations. Don’t hesitate to call or email if you have any questions!
Insurance Coverage Options
Trip Insurance:
Trip Insurance provides you with an extended cancellation period, and refunds if you do need to cancel your trip. Our rental policy states that 48 hours after placing your rental order, a cancellation will result in a 10% administrative fee, and no refund will be given if canceling within two weeks of your pickup or ship date. Trip Insurance allows you to cancel up to 48 hours from your pickup/ship date, and gets your refund in full (minus Trip Insurance). The world, especially in the last few years, can be pretty crazy! With Trip Insurance you have the option to mitigate some of this craziness. Check out our Rental Policy page, or shoot us an email if you have any other questions.
