RV Security Made Easy: Protect Your Home on Wheels with Kangaroo

Hitting the open road in your RV is all about freedom and adventure, but that doesn't mean you should compromise on security. Whether you're a seasoned RVer or a weekend warrior, protecting your home on wheels from theft and vandalism is essential. The National Insurance Crime Bureau reports that RV theft has been on the rise, with thousands of RVs stolen each year. But don't worry, Kangaroo offers a range of smart, easy-to-use security solutions that cater specifically to the unique needs of RV owners.

Why RV Security Matters:

RVs, campers, and utility trailers are often targeted by thieves due to their valuable contents and relative vulnerability. Unfortunately, RVs are often left unattended for long periods, making them susceptible to break-ins. Additionally, RVs can be parked in remote campsites or rest areas, making them easy targets for opportunistic thieves.

Additional Tips for RV Security:

Lock Up: Always lock your RV doors and windows, even when you're inside. Remember, opportunistic thieves can strike even when you're relaxing at your campsite. Use a high-quality padlock on storage compartments and ensure all windows and doors have robust locks. Consider adding secondary locks, like deadbolts or window bars, for an extra layer of protection.

Wheel Locks and Hitch Locks: Prevent your RV from being towed away by using a wheel lock or tire boot. This simple device can deter thieves and make it significantly more difficult to steal your vehicle. Additionally, invest in a hitch lock to prevent your RV from being detached from your tow vehicle.

GPS Tracker: Install a GPS tracker on your RV. This allows you to track its location in real time and can be invaluable in case of theft, aiding authorities in recovering your vehicle.

Invest in an RV Backup Camera: This isn't just about security; it's also about safety. A backup camera improves visibility and helps prevent accidents while parking or maneuvering your RV, especially in tight spaces or unfamiliar campgrounds.

Security System Signage: Displaying a security system sign, even if you don't have a full-fledged system, can act as a deterrent. Thieves are less likely to target RVs that appear to be protected.

Don't Leave Valuables in Sight: Keep valuables like electronics, jewelry, and cash hidden away in a secure location, like a locked safe or storage compartment.

Park Smart: Choose well-lit and secure campsites whenever possible. Park close to other RVs and utilize campground security features if available.

Be Neighborly: Get to know your neighbors at the campground and look out for each other's RVs.

Finding Safe and Secure RV Spots:

Research Campgrounds: Read reviews and check ratings for campgrounds before booking. Look for those that have security measures in place, such as gated access, security cameras, and on-site staff.
Utilize RV Park Directories: Online directories like RV Parky or Campendium can help you find campgrounds with security features and positive reviews from other RVers.
Consider Membership Campgrounds: Some campgrounds offer memberships that provide additional security benefits, such as gated access and 24/7 security patrols.
Talk to Fellow RVers: Ask other RVers for recommendations on safe and secure campsites. Online forums and social media groups can be valuable resources for gathering information.
