Frequently Asked Questions

Find the answers to our most frequently asked questions.

What is Side By Side Share?

Side By Side Share is a peer to peer marketplace for UTV's and ATV's. Owners can list their rig and make extra cash while they aren't using it. Renters can browse, book, and ride, all while communicating with the owner directly through our site.

What does the Side By Side Share Protection Plan cover?

The Side By Side Share Protection Plan and waiver applies to the vehicle and trailer, (if applicable). This is NOT the same as traditional insurance. There is no coverage for street legal operation, There is no liability coverage, there is no medical coverage. See rental agreement. Side By Side Share agrees to assume the costs related to damages that occur ONLY during the rental period. UTV damages including the trailer up to $40,000. ATV damages including the trailer up to $12,000. Damages caused to either the UTV/ATV or the trailer due to collision or accident are applicable. Mechanical breakdowns that are the result of wear or manufacturer defect are not applicable.

What is the deducible/renter portion in the event of an accident?

STANDARD DEDUCTIBLE IS $2000 per occurrence meaning if there are two separate incidents the deductible would be $4000. In any situation where the vehicle is tipped onto its side or rolled over, THE DEDUCTIBLE WILL BE $5000. The reason for the higher deductible is to encourage safe and responsible driving throughout the rental period. Most accidents can be avoided when proper care is taken.

How should the Renter and Owner communicate?

Preferably on Side by Side Share's website. This is an easy way to ensure that there are no misunderstandings as the entire conversation is saved on our server.

Are there any UTV/ATV models or years that are not protected under our protection plan?

The only model that is not covered under our protection plan is any model/year of the Can Am Maverick. You may still list your Maverick on SxS Share, but it will not be covered under the protection plan.
