Sell outright or consign
An outright sale puts cash in your hand and ends your insurance and storage costs the same day. Consignment usually nets more because the dealer retails the unit, but you wait for a buyer and pay a commission. Two of the three Lakeland dealerships offer consignment, so you can compare both routes under one roof. Ask each one what they would pay outright and what they would list it for on consignment. That gap tells you what the convenience is costing. Get any agreement in writing, including who covers repairs found during the buyer's inspection.
Before you take it in
Clean the unit and fix the small stuff first. A slide that drags or a fridge that won't cool on propane comes straight off the offer. Gather the title, any lien release, service records and the manuals. Know your payoff if you still owe on it, because the dealer will need to clear the lien before paying you the difference. Off-season is a fair time to sell a motorhome in Florida, since snowbirds are gone and dealer inventory is thinner. Call ahead so someone who appraises is actually there when you arrive.

Questions people ask
How many dealers in Lakeland buy RVs?
Three dealerships in Lakeland buy used RVs, and all three also offer financing. Two of them handle consignment as well, so you can compare an outright sale against letting them retail it for you.
What is the average rating for these dealerships?
The three average 4.3 out of 5. Ideal RV.'s inc. leads at 4.6, I4RV follows at 4.5, and Make It Happen RV Sales & Repair sits at 3.7 with the largest review count at 403.
Should I sell outright or consign my RV?
Outright is faster and ends your storage and insurance costs immediately. Consignment often nets more but takes longer and carries a commission. Two Lakeland dealerships offer both, so ask for an outright number and a consignment listing price and compare.
What should I bring to the dealership?
Bring the title, any lien release, service records and the manuals. Clean the unit and fix small problems first, since a dragging slide or a fridge that won't cool will lower the offer. Call ahead so an appraiser is on hand.
