Pick a path, then go deeper.
Where should a first-time renter start?
Start with the rentals guide. It explains how RV rentals work, how to compare marketplaces, and what to check before you book.
I just bought an RV. What should I do first?
Use the new-owner week-1 checklist. It walks through safety, systems, supplies, and a short shakedown before you buy more gear.
What is boondocking?
Boondocking means camping without utility hookups. The beginners guide covers a legal site, power, water, waste, and why local rules come before the pin in an app.
Does RV Junkie sell RVs or book trips?
No. RV Junkie publishes practical guides. Marketplace buttons may open RVshare or Outdoorsy, and we may earn a commission if you book. Reservations happen on those sites, not here.
