If you plan on parking your RV for the winter or for long periods between camping trips, consider storing it in a designated storage lot rather than in your driveway.
Many towns and communities are starting to write rules prohibiting parking RVs at your home for more than a few days at a time, citing safety concerns of neighbors backing out of driveways with their vision blocked by a large sidewall.
Others do not like the sight of a large RV parked in the view from their windows. Think about your neighbors' concerns--and discuss it with them--before deciding to store your RV at your home.
Hi All.
ReplyDeleteOne way to avoid this problem, is to make sure you can park an RV on your property before you buy your next Home. We have been RV'ers for 45 years now, and it has never been a problem for us, why, because we do our homework before we buy, Period. The problem with RV's being parked at home isn't the real problem. Its your lousy, noisey neighbors with nothing better to do than to make others lifes miserable. I have also lived in a project, that didn't allow you to do anything on your property. This one was an extream case, but all the Members of the HOA took the Assocation Board to court, and had the entire CC&R's over turned and re-writen. As said, do your homework first before buying. Seems to be more of a City thing, as us "Country Folk" people know how to get along with their neighbors, plus we own a lot more land. We have always keep our RV's at Home, in a Real RV Port, with Full Hook-Ups, and the RV Port is a perfect match to our house. Yep, we are very Happy RV'ers
And be sure to discuss where the vehicle is parked with your insurance agent as many insurance companies base your premium on where it's parked. You don't want to find it vandalized and not covered by your insurance.
