Tent-Only Rentals

Bring your own vehicle. We'll provide the rooftop tent.

Rent just the rooftop tent and roof rack gear — no SUV rental required. Tell us your car and dates, and we'll confirm your roof rack fit.

How It Works

Already have a car with roof rails or cross bars? You may not need to rent a vehicle at all.

If your own vehicle has factory roof rails, fixed points, or existing cross bars, a Thule Tepui rooftop tent can often mount directly to it — no need to book one of our rooftop-tent SUVs. You'll pick up the tent and mount it yourself; we'll walk you through the setup first.

  • Bring your own vehicle — no separate vehicle rental needed

Check compatibility & request a rental

This isn't an instant booking — we review every vehicle by hand to confirm roof rack/cross bar compatibility, then follow up by email to confirm details and take payment.

FAQ

Useful details before you request a tent-only rental.

Do I need roof rails or cross bars already installed?

Yes, your vehicle needs either factory roof rails, fixed mounting points, or existing cross bars for a rooftop tent to mount securely. If you're not sure what your vehicle has, describe it in the form and we'll help figure it out.

What if my vehicle isn't compatible?

We'll let you know by email, and can suggest one of our rooftop-tent SUV rentals instead if a tent-only rental isn't a good fit for your car.

Do you install the tent on my vehicle?

Not currently — you'll pick up the tent and mount it onto your own roof rack or cross bars yourself. We'll walk you through the setup at pickup so you know what to expect.

Is this an instant booking?

No — this is a request. We manually confirm compatibility and availability, then follow up by email with next steps and payment.

Where is pickup?

Pickup is in south Edmonton, about 18 km from YEG airport. We'll confirm exact pickup details once your rental is confirmed.
