RangeMaggotBob Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 Can anybody tell me which long-term BLM boondocking areas have pump-out and fresh water services? I'm good for a week, but don't really want to break camp; we'd like to stay 2 weeks. Thanks for any information!

vermilye Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 (edited) While I haven't used them, others have suggested R&B Septic Services, 1360 North Moon Mountain Avenue Quartzsite, Arizona 85346, 928-927-3887. I have seen other trucks moving through the LTVAs.

2gypsies Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 If you're only spending 2 weeks why not use the free areas rather than the long-term. We love Scaddan Wash area. There are always RV pumpout trucks roaming through these areas. Once you're there talk to others or go to the CofC/Visitor's Center to ask for some phone numbers. http://thedyrt.com/magazine/local/rv-campers-guide-quartzsite-az/ Quote Full-timed for 16 YearsTraveled 8 yr in a 2004 Newmar Dutch Star 40' Motorhome and 8 yr in a 33' Travel Supreme 5th Wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tahoe Shark Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 Last year some of our group used Ironwood RV @ (602) 935-9470. He pumps black and gray as well as delivers potable water. He was out and about almost every day.

KodiakJack Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 Lots of services are available. Recall seeing the Schwan's yellow food truck roving through the rigs (assume to make deliveries). They have some great dishes.

We're certainly not set on any particular place. We will definitely check that out. Another related question- I know you guys have been there a lot- is there someplace to unhook my fiver and then look around for a place to camp, or do we just drive around hooked up til we find a spot? Thanks everybody for all the replies!

Thanks everybody for all the replies! You can always go to any of the free BLM areas and drop your RV there while you look around. You'll probably have to register with the camp host, but it's free and you're not obligated to stay there if you find another place you like better.

Lou Schneider Posted January 1, 2022 Report Share Posted January 1, 2022 (edited) Just IMHO in having spent the last 20 years or so winters visiting Q, but expecting someone to come out and service you kind of defeats the spirit of staying in a boondocking area. Even if they're scheduled, they're likely to be in short supply during the peak weeks as the demand increases. You just can't build the kind of infrastructure necessary to provide that level of support for the number of people who are only there for a week or two.

Good Lord man- I just want to be able to empty my tanks as needed; this isn't some kind of spiritual journey. I might just stay longer than a week or two. But thanks for the input.

So people who use a blue boy and/or a water bladder in their truck aren't boondocking? Since boondocking apparently means not needing such service? Are we not supposed to go dump and fill during our stay as well? The OP was just looking for a way to not have to move his rig during his stay in the desert.

hemsteadc Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) If you don't like your neighbors within spitting distance you may find the pay areas more amenable. The Hi Jolly free area, for example, is usually wall-to-wall, and I imagine now it's pretty crowded.

Jerry Campbell Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 It seems that no one answered your question La Posa South about 5 miles south on 95, on the left. As far as I know it's the only one of the ltva's with water, dumpsters and dump station. Good luck and have fun Jerry Quote 1975 Crown SuperCoach Solar Electric WVO Powered 6-71N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vermilye Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 All the LTVAs have dumpsters, but La Posa South is the only one in Quartzsite that has a dump station & water. The water & dump station is about 2 miles from the entrance.
