Looking for the best UTV rentals in Moab? Here's why discerning adventurers choose Epic 4x4 Adventures for their Polaris RZR and side-by-side rental experiences—and what makes our fleet genuinely different from every other rental company in town.
The Truth About Moab Off-Road Rentals (And Why Most Companies Get It Wrong)
Picture this: You've driven hours to Moab, excited for your first real desert adventure. You pull into a rental shop, and they hand you a used up older machine, a photocopied map you can barely read, and wave you off with "good luck." Sound familiar?
That's the Moab rental experience most companies offer. At Epic 4x4 Adventures, we took a completely different approach.
When you rent from us, you get machines that turn over twice a year, so you're always in nearly-new equipment. You're getting curated GPS routes that match your exact experience level. And you're getting the backing of Moab's only Polaris Elite outfitter, with comprehensive insurance that actually protects you.

What Makes Epic 4x4's Side-by-Side Rentals Different
The Polaris RZR Pro R Advantage
While other rental companies in Moab offer whatever they can get their hands on, we exclusively rent the Polaris RZR Pro R, and there's a crucial reason why. The Pro R features naturally aspirated engines, which means consistent power delivery at Moab's 4,000-foot elevation. Those turbocharged Can-Ams other companies push? They struggle in our thin air, leaving you frustrated on climbs and wondering why your machine feels sluggish.
Our Pro R fleet includes:
- 2-seat models for couples seeking intimate adventure
- 4-seat configurations for families and small groups
- Factory-tuned suspension that handles Moab's unique terrain
- 6-point harnesses (while competitors use basic lap belts)
- Climate considerations with full windshields and roof options
Curated GPS Routes That Change Everything
Here's what nobody tells you about Moab: there are over 800 miles of trails, and 317 miles were just closed by the BLM. Show up without local knowledge, and you'll either end up lost, stuck, or worse—in areas that will damage a rental machine.
Our GPS tablets come pre-loaded with:
- Skill-matched routes from scenic cruising to technical challenges
- Updated trail conditions updated by our team
- Photo opportunity waypoints for those Instagram moments
- Danger zones are clearly marked to keep you safe
- Hidden gems only locals know about
One family from Denver told us: "The GPS routes alone were worth choosing Epic. We saw petroglyphs, slot canyons, and overlooks we never would have found with a paper map."
Who Thrives with Our Moab Off-Road Rentals
Solo Adventurers and Couples (21-35)
Young professionals and adventure couples choose our 2-seat Polaris RZR rentals for the freedom to explore at their own pace. The Pro R's nimble handling and our curated routes mean you can tackle technical terrain in the morning and cruise scenic overlooks by sunset—all without the pressure of keeping up with a tour group.
"My girlfriend and I wanted to do Hell's Revenge but weren't sure we could handle it alone. Epic's GPS had bypass routes for the scary parts, and we still felt like total badasses." - Jake, 28, Austin
Families with Teenagers (35-55)
Parents appreciate our 4-seat side-by-side rentals because everyone stays together in one machine: no splitting up, no walkie-talkies, no losing sight of each other on dusty trails. Our family-friendly routes balance the excitement of teens with the comfort of parents, including stops at swimming holes and Native American sites that turn a ride into an educational experience.
Our insurance coverage (up to $25,000 medical per rider) gives parents peace of mind that cheaper rentals simply can't match.
Experienced Riders (40-70)
Seasoned off-roaders choose Epic because they recognize quality. They know the difference between a maintained machine and a clapped-out rental. They appreciate that our twice-yearly fleet turnover means reliable equipment. And they value having access to Poison Spider Mesa and Hell's Revenge without the tourist crowds.
One returning customer, a 62-year-old from Colorado, put it perfectly: "I've rented UTVs all over the West. Epic is the only company that treats rentals like they're lending their personal machines to friends."
Groups and Multi-Generational Adventures
Corporate teams, bachelor parties, and family reunions need coordination that paper maps and random rentals can't provide. Our fleet can accommodate groups while our GPS systems keep everyone on the same route. We're the only rental company offering synchronized departure times and regrouping waypoints built into every route.

Seasonal Considerations for Side-by-Side Rentals
Spring (March-May): Peak season with perfect weather. Book 30+ days ahead. Summer (June-August): Start early (6 AM departures available) to beat heat. Fall (September-November): Ideal temperatures and smaller crowds. Winter (December-February): Surprisingly good riding on warmer days.
What to Bring on Your UTV Adventure

Why Polaris RZR Pro R Is the Only Choice for Moab
The naturally aspirated engine isn't just marketing speak—it's physics. At an elevation of 4,000 feet, turbocharged engines lose approximately 20% of their power. The Pro R maintains consistent performance whether you're crawling up Hell's Gate or flying across sand flats.
Additionally, the Pro R offers:
- Best-in-class suspension travel for Moab's volcanic rock
- Optimal weight distribution for steep climb stability
- Superior visibility for technical navigation
- Parts availability (Polaris has local service support)
- Proven reliability in extreme conditions
