Are You a Full-Time RVer Without Realizing It? You Might Be Underinsured.


If you’re living the RV life more than just a few weekends a year, there’s a chance you’ve crossed into full-time territory — even if you don’t call yourself a “full-timer.”


The problem? Your insurance company does care about the difference.

“Full-Time” Means More Than You Think


Many RVers assume full-timers are people who:

  • Sold their house

  • Gave up their mailing address

  • Live in the RV 365 days a year


But that’s not how insurance companies define it.


If any of the following apply, you might qualify as a full-time RVer in their eyes:


  • You live in your RV 150 nights or more per year

  • You don’t own or rent another residence

  • You stay parked in campgrounds, RV parks, or on land for long periods

  • You use your RV as your primary mailing address or home base


Why It Matters: Risk & Responsibility


Most auto insurance companies (or basic RV policies) assume your RV is just used for occasional trips.


That means they may deny claims involving:

  • Personal liability (someone trips at your site)

  • Damage while parked long-term

  • Stolen property from inside your RV

  • Medical payments to others

  • Alternative living arrangements if your RV is totaled


It’s not about the number of wheels — it’s about how you use your RV.


What Is Full-Time RV Insurance?


Full-time RV insurance is designed for people who live in their RV — even part of the year — as their main residence. It combines elements of auto and homeowners coverage to protect:


  • Your liability (in case someone gets injured near or inside your RV)

  • Your belongings inside the RV

  • Your rig, even when parked long-term

  • Emergency expenses, like hotel stays if your RV becomes unlivable


One Claim Can Reveal Everything


Let’s say you file a claim and the insurance adjuster asks where you live.

If the answer is “in the RV,” but your policy says you’re a part-time user, that’s a red flag — and a potential claim denial. Many people don’t even realize they were misclassified until it’s too late.
