I was in Texas for a while but the constant rain ate me to the core. I drove to Arizona for some heat. My Geico will not cover me as of next month because I do not have a physical address. Really don't want to rent an apartment. I will be heading back to Texas at the end of the month to take care of business then to meet up w/my son for a bit. Do I need a UPS box or will a Post Office box do? What is the best insurance. I have a small DIY camper van & an impeccable driving record. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
By the way, the campgrounds in Arizona are snobs. Nothing over 10 yrs are allowed. I have encountered a lot of older RVs that are in great shape but don't get in.
Very few RV parks in Arizona go by the 10-year rule which, by the way, is also in all the other states. You must have stopped at the wrong park. We've never heard of problems in Arizona.
Escapees RV Club in Livingston, Texas has a great mail forwarding service. You can now also use them if you want a Florida or South Dakota address rather than Texas. We've used them for 18 years with no problems and traveled extensively as full-timers. They will give you a legal street address, proven in courts.
Escapees also has a nice network of Escapee-owned or co-op owned parks across the southern states in FL, AL, TX, NM, AZ along with TN, CA, OR and WA. There is definitely no 10-year rule in any of them and their site prices are very, very reasonable along with even cheaper monthly or seasonal rates.
