Walmart overnight stays allowed or not allowed

It's free to ask the manager of the store- best policy anyway since Walmart policy is that it's up to every manager to decide. And they have no control over local prohibitive ordinances etc.

If you're trying to "plan ahead", my policy is to always have a plan "B" in case Walmart's a no-go....

rvparky is a free app that has the info. That way we can plan ahead.

allstays.com is generally pretty accurate.
Then I like the Walmart group on Yahoo.

There is a yahoo list that has a frequently updated file with the Walmarts that allow overnighting:

Group

The list owner updates the file as new information comes in. However it's always a good idea to check in with the store manager, and if you have a shopping cart with you when you do so, that's even better.

Here's a link that you can get all the different stores and truck stops that allow boondocking over night. If you play with it you will see you can look by list or by map for each state. There is also an app for your cell phone. There is a pro version that they charge for but I don't know the difference cause I just use the free version as a guide. So far it has been fairly accurate but you still need to call or talk to the mgr to verify, it does give you the address and the telephone number of the store you are looking at.......


Allstays

I use the free rvparky app, has always been accurate for me.

Easy and free: load the POI for Walmarts on your GPS, then pick your WM and call to ask permission. If answer is no overnight parking, repeat step one. ;)

Google this: "which walmart allows overnight parking"

There are fewer and fewer Wal marts that allow parking overnight. If you ask most will say no. Not always their fault its the city ordinance that says no. Rv parks complain to the city (for obvious reasons) and up go the "no parking overnight" signs. We dont bother looking for walmart we just go straight to a rv park.

The problems today with W-Mart is if you share a loaf of bread with the guy sleeping on the grass next to you, make sure you leave him some for breakfest.
