RV Scout checks dump stations, propane, water, truck fuel, overnight parking and campgrounds against the size of your rig, so you know before you drive there whether you can get in, turn around and get back out.
RV Scout is in beta. Listings are estimates from public data and member reports. Always check signs, clearances and conditions yourself; RV Scout is not a substitute for your own judgment or for posted limits.
How fit works
Fits — a known size limit your rig clears, or a member with a rig at least as long reported it fit.
Won't fit — a known limit your rig exceeds (length, height, width, weight, vehicle class), the site doesn't allow your rig type, or a member with a rig no longer than yours couldn't fit.
Fit unknown — no limits on file yet. RV Scout never marks a place “Won't fit” for missing data. Hints like “usually big-rig friendly” or “may be tight — check first” come from the kind of place it is.
Campgrounds fit when at least one campsite takes your rig. Campsites are checked against your trailer (or motorhome) length, because the tow vehicle usually parks beside it; lots, pockets and fuel islands are checked against your total length.

Overnight parking is decided by each location, not each chain. A listing at a store or casino means it's a place to ask, not a promise you can stay.
