Boondocking is one way to fully experience life outside of the big city on your own terms. It is also known as off-grid camping or free camping.
Boondocking Off-Grid Camping
Ready to Get Off the Grid?
Boondocking is known by many names in the travel trailer industry. You might hear dry camping, off-grid camping, or dispersed camping, to name a few. No matter what you call it, those who like boondocking have one thing in common: getting away from it all.
Get Away From It All
You'll be the only camper for miles if you're in a travel trailer. Seclusion in nature is the crucial aspect of boondocking. You may find space in an open place on public lands or approved areas of National Forests and state parks. Or you might find a secluded spot in a beautiful location and park. Some folks even find great spaces on private land. (Though it's a good idea to ask permission first, many landowners are more accommodating than you might think).
When you choose to boondock in your RV, you opt for the ultimate seclusion. However, this also means you won't have the usual amenities of a campsite, such as water and waste hookups, phone service, or electricity. But the reward is the serenity, peace, and vast expanse of nature that stretches out before you.
You don't have to worry about a nearby road, other camper's trash and waste, or other people's motorhomes and RVs ruining your views of nature.
Olivers are great for boondocking off the grid; our trailers have large water tanks and waste holding tanks, and with a bank of four batteries, LED interior lights, and two optional 30lb propane tanks, they give you what you need. Our solar package, standard remote freshwater refill abilities, and ample storage keep you comfortable on your long adventures away from home. In addition, the insulation from our double-hull fiberglass construction means you'll have the same comfort in the Southwest US as in the wilds of Canada.
