Parking Overnight at Wal-marts Guidelines
If you have never stayed or parked at a Wal-mart overnight, please follow some simple guidelines so we don't lose this courtesy.
Ask permission. Be polite, friendly, maybe even have a cart of merchandise as you ask the manager. You really don't want security or the police to knock on your door telling you to move in the middle of the night.

Don't abuse the privilege by making sure it's just an overnight stop. Leave as early as you can on your trip. You should be gone by 10am or it's becoming a strong case of breaking local vagrancy laws.
Don't set up camp. No awnings, lawn chairs, grills and such. If you want to "camp" go find a campground.
Show some appreciation. If you stay overnight, buy some supplies, your fuel, breakfast or whatever.
Please let us know about your experiences, positive and negative and what Wal-mart location that it happened. Our Wal-mart store guide gets over two thousand visitors a day and this is the place to share your stories.Labels: boondocking, camping

I saw some people the other day in a parking lot with their slide out and a lawn chair and it looked so terrible. Talk about those that ruin it for all of us.
our slide has to go out or we cannot sleep
Many overnight parking places have taken the privilege away because of slide outs. If one has to put a slide out to sleep, one should go to a proper campground or buy another type of RV where you can climb into bed, use a couch, a dinette or nap on an angle. Jacks damage pavement and many times, they go hand in hand with slides.
