Ready to cut the costs of your future RV trips? Use the following RV budget travel tips to spend less money without sacrificing fun!
Go Boondocking
One way to cut RV costs is making sure your rig is capable of boondock travel. If you don’t need top-of-the-line hookups and amenities, you can often save money on campsite rental fees. You may need to invest upfront to make your RV boondock ready, but it can save you money over your years of travel.
Camp On Federal Land
Another strategy is to look for campsites on federal park land. These areas tend to offer lower camping fees, especially compared to privately-owned RV parks! Spend some time researching to see if you can spot any hidden gems with low pricing or even deals on campgrounds.
Reduce Your Food Budget
Another key area of RV costs is the food budget. After all, every passenger has to eat multiple times a day between the various meals and snacks. One of the best things you can do for your wallet is to reduce eating out. Sure, it’s nice to enjoy a quick fast food meal for convenience or a meal at a local restaurant to get a feel for the city you’re visiting. But eating out is expensive and all those purchases really add up.
Fortunately, you don’t have to fully give up restaurant meals. Instead, shoot for a balance. Cook most of your meals to save money and approach eating out as a treat. You can also save money by taking advantage of lunch specials or happy hour food specials, rather than dinner (where you’ll often find the same dishes, but at a higher price).
