Campervan Rental Vancouver — Your Complete Hire Guide

Vancouver is Canada's ultimate starting point for a campervan road trip. Nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Coast Mountains, this vibrant city offers year-round appeal — from mild West Coast winters to stunning summers that stretch past 10pm. Most travellers pick up their Wicked Camper at our Vancouver depot and head east towards the Rockies, north along the Sea-to-Sky Highway, or take the ferry to Vancouver Island for a rugged coastal loop. With world-class dining, Stanley Park, and Granville Island just minutes from the depot, it's worth spending a day in the city before hitting the open road.

Best Time to Pick Up in Vancouver

Peak season runs from mid-June to early September — warm days, long evenings, and all mountain passes fully open. May and September are ideal shoulder months with lower hire rates and fewer crowds at campsites. Vancouver's mild climate means spring road trips are possible from April, though higher-elevation routes (e.g. Highway 5 to Jasper) may still have chain requirements. Winter travel stays on the BC coast — the Sea-to-Sky corridor to Whistler is stunning year-round.

Local Tips

  • Book your BC Ferries ticket in advance if heading to Vancouver Island — summer sailings sell out fast.
  • Stop at Shannon Falls and the Sea-to-Sky Gondola on your way to Whistler — free parking for campervans.
  • Fill up on groceries at Save-On-Foods in Squamish or Kamloops before entering remote stretches.
  • Download the iOverlander app for free/low-cost camping spots along BC highways.
  • Check drivebc.ca every morning for up-to-date road conditions and closures.

Vancouver — Additional FAQs

Where is the Wicked Campers Vancouver pickup location?

Our Vancouver depot is conveniently located near the city centre. Full address and directions are sent with your booking confirmation. Free parking is available at pickup.

Can I take the ferry to Vancouver Island in a Wicked Camper?

Yes! All our campervans are ferry-compatible. BC Ferries operates daily sailings from Tsawwassen (near Vancouver) to Swartz Bay (Victoria). We recommend booking your ferry in advance during summer.

Is it worth driving from Vancouver to Banff by campervan?

Absolutely — it's one of Canada's most iconic road trips. The drive takes you through the Fraser Canyon, past Kamloops, through Revelstoke and Golden, and into Banff National Park. Allow 5–7 days to enjoy stops along the way.

What is the cheapest time to hire a campervan from Vancouver?

The lowest rates are typically from October through April (off-season). For good weather at a lower price, book a May or September trip — shoulder season with fewer crowds and discounted rates.
