I kinda feel like this guy on this thread




The WM at Bartlett, TN seems to allow parking, but you cannot enter through the front. Sam's is right next door and I see RVs parked there often.

Mr JohnRR; By this post, I hope to steer this thread back on topic. I do not get out among people very often so when I do, I kinda have to step back and watch what and how to act in the situation. Now my question. When pulling into a walmart, how do you choose the spot you park your rig, Is it rude to park close to the others, or does every one park as far from each other as possible? Just thought I'd ask. Jimm Zi/

DW and I have way-stopped at Walmarts in many states. Always checked in with manager first. For security park with your rv door in line of sight with the store's security cameras. We shop for groceries, etcin the store, so Walmart gains a customer. Would not put out chairs, or a grill, etc, but I have seen it done.

I Usually try to find a spot that is far from the store and level enough for the fridge to work OK without putting the jacks down. As long as there is room, I have no problem parking next to or near other RV's. I think that it actually may make it a bit safer.

Has anybody asked a WM manager his opinion on slides, jacks, chairs, BBQs, etc?

The Wal-Mart here aka China Mart doesn't allow over night parking. The put up height limiters across all of their driveways. 12'2" clearance. They also have a locked gate across the driveway where the semi's come into the lot.
