New signs at Walmart NH. No Truck or RV parking. I asked the manager why the signs. He said complaints, RV's had awning out, also company is not accepting risk & liability to Truck or RV damage after hours because of social protest. I asked is this just this Walmart, he said no. Could not attach picture. Trend of the times or local to State/region.

I still see a few old and new RVs parked overnight at a Reno Walmart. Never many and no awnings or chairs or grills on display.

The few that put out awnings, grills, etc or stay for multiple nights ruin it for everyone else.

I have noticed 2 Wal Mart’s here are about full of big trucks and a few campers. Lots of trucks some even dropping trailers. Don’t think log or gravel trucks are making deliveries

The first thing I learned about WalMart stopping, It's NOT a Campground, it's a place to stop and grab a few hours sleep and back on the road. Unfortunately everyone doesn't seem to understand that.

Some also think it a Free Dumping station into the storm drains

Don't walmart camp but access to bed bathroom and kitchen with slides in is a must have.

I agree and that requirement eliminates a vast number of floor plans with slides. Makes shopping easier IMO. Life is good.

Agree, but only concerning the bathroom. Otherwise, too many great floorplans would be eliminated from consideration.

Well, if you feel the need to not follow what is accepted as "etiquette", understand you might be the reason for limits on all RVers.

I had a DP like that once Lyle--it lasted a year but in that year I never once parked in a Wal Mart. I parked in a truck stop but could access the back with one slide part way out. You resting or camping?
