Might sound stupid but is there any reason why you can't park your rv on grass is there reason why it has to be concrete I'm thing moisture causing rust but is it really that bad please .

Thanks Luke

Hi,
  Kills the grass perhaps?? Hard to mow under??


The rust theory sounds interesting, looking forward to other comments on this one.


cheers

None, as far as im concerned, but:

you will end up with a depression in the ground if left over winter (wet)
the grass underneath will die
it will be harder to mow around  the edges, and the grass will grow up around it. This may lead to moisture retainment.

Perhaps embed a couple of large concrete pavers in the lawn.

Mine is parked on grass all the time as is my truck, then again I'm on about 6 acres so I roll it forward or back every couple of weeks.
