Love Quartzsite area for beauty, interesting people, lots of ATving and of unique shopping. There are two types of BLM areas around Quartzsite - short term and long term.
Short term is with zero services and you are supposed to move 25 mile(??) every two weeks. FREE. Rarely do they check the short term areas for length of stay but they can.
Long term areas are $40 for two weeks or $180 for the season(in 2016) You have access to garbage bins, water fill stations and dump stations in one just one of the long term areas. Is in the one across highway 95 from Tyson Wash area, name escapes me. In January when the Big Tent event is there, waits can be rather lengthy, rest of the season not too bad.
In Q you can also dump and fill water for a fee, get propane, get a shower and do laundry all for a fee. Several grocery stores and dollar stores for the basics. I believe you can also get showers at the two truck stops in town, most RVers use the laundromat showers.
If you have questions about the area, send a PM. We have done this area for six years as we ATV with friends and love the area. Never dull and the price is right!
