Rig vs Total Length

Hosts welcome different types of RVs - motorhomes and tow-behind rigs. To help both Members and Hosts be confident in the hosting/Stay process, we identify the length in two important ways: Rig Length and Total Length.

Motorhomes

Tow-Behind RVs

RV Length

Bumper-to-bumper of Motorhome

tongue (hitch) to the back of RV

Total Length

length of RV + anything towed behind

length of towing vehicle + RV + anything towed behind the RV (car, motorcycle, jet ski, 4x4, etc.)

Travel Profile

Please provide accurate Rig & Total Length on your Travel Profile for Hosts to review when you Request a Stay. Log in, click on your name/photo at the top right, and choose Travel Profile from the dropdown menu. Enter your Rig Type, Rig Length, and Total Length, and click Save at the bottom.

Your Rig Details will be displayed on your Travel Profile.

It will also be pulled into the Stay Request form when you request a stay with a Host.

Hosts will be able to view your Rig information when looking at your Stay Request details.

Requesting Stays

Please be sure to verify that a Host can accommodate your Total Rig Length before requesting a Stay. This information can be found directly under the Host Name at the top of the Host's Profile page.

You can also find this information in the Parking & Arrival section on the Host Profile page.

Pro Tip: This is a great place to find information & instructions the Host might include about drivability, entrances, parking surfaces & methods, and more.
