Cleaning RV at Parks?

The RV parks that don't allow washing sometimes will allow a 'RV wash' company to come in. So, that's what we do, if I want a clean RV, I will hire one of these companies to give us a wash.

Some parks do allow washing which is what I did yesterday. It takes me pretty much exactly 2.5 hrs. to wash and dry the motorhome. I find it good exercise and would always rather do it myself.

I know the day is coming that I won't be able to do it. The day has arrived that I don't want to get on the roof. Our current motorhome is about 5 inches taller than our previous Dynasty and we don't have a ladder attached to this coach. It gives me the eebbie-jeebbies to step down to a ladder that doesn't go up over the roof line.

MM.

We use the Wash/Wax All. It has a kit with expandable handle and pads. Spray on the pads and wipe away dirt. It works great! Good luck.

I use the Blue Coral wash/wax and a long telescopic brush and bucket. I carry a 50' hose and my water tank holds more than enough water to wash the coach.
If the coach is dirty and I see a place where I can pull off, I wash the coach.
I wash and the DW follows behind and rinses.
The next time I pull in to an RV park, I top off my fresh water tank again.

" Most parks won't let you wash them..." sure wish folks on this forum would NOT exaggerate!! We have been rving since 1991 - uncounted number of parks - and never been stopped from washing our various rigs!!

Get the buckets and brushes and hoses out at almost any state park in Indiana and the DNR will be all over you. Attach a garden hose with a sprinkler and let the kids run through it and play, and the DNR will sit back, smile, laugh, and go right on. I suppose the secret is to give a bunch of kids the brushes and soap and hoses. When DNR drives by and they are washing your RV, they'll think the kids are just having a gigantic soap and water fight and your camper was in the line of fire. That would be about the only way to get away with it in Indiana.

I wash often at State Parks in Indiana, but I use a sponge and a bucket and do small areas at a time and no water touches the ground. Wipe on....wipe off. No one says anything about that process.
