Where

Walmart parking lots are the most popular place for Overnight Parking. Flying J's has a few spots, water, and tank dump stations. Cracker Barrel has spots reserved for RV's and allows overnight parking.

Whenever you park in a commercial spot, make sure to ask if it's "still okay." Also, check for "No Overnight Parking" signs posted in the parking lot. While some business may allow Overnight RV Parking as a general policy, some towns and communities may have ordinances against it. If you see a sign, you're much better off moving along, or risk being wakened in the middle of the night, with a police officer pounding on your door.

If you travel with your dogs, PLEASE pick up after them! Nancy and I got into RV'ing because we didn't want to travel without our dogs. We make a point to clean up after them. RV'ers who don't do this ruin all RV'ers reputation. I've heard it first-hand. Please pick up!

What is Overnight Parking

Is it Boondocking or overnight parking? Hardcore boondockers will tell you, "If you can see pavement, you're overnight parking, not boondocking." 

We'll go a bit lighter, and say; If you're staying in one place longer than one night, with no hookups, you're boondocking. You may be overnight parking on your way to a boondocking location. You may be an Express RV'r  (like us) on your way to your next tourist destination. You may be a full-time RV'r who does 'stealth' overnight parking, or rotating between overnight parking locations. Whatever your overnight parking needs are, this is the place for information.

There are plenty of good boondocking sites, but most of the sites dedicated to Overnight RV Parking are dedicated to where to park. We'll show you those, but this site has to do with the other aspects; why, and how. And in some cases, when. We'll get in to strategies, procedures, and technologies. We'll interview first time overnighters and experienced overnighters. We'll learn from those who's been there, and mastered the skill.

And, that's an important point; Overnight RV Parking is a skill. And, like any skill, it takes learning, practice, mistakes, improvements, more practice, and mastery. 

Our main goal is to save you money. Well, to be honest, our main goal is to get this site to the point where we're able to earn money from it, while helping you save money.
