Stealth Camper Van

The Essential Guide

This is a primer for anyone looking for information on how to setup a stealth camper van and live comfortably, safely and economically in a typical urban or suburban environment. There are plenty of reasons why you want to make a home in your vehicle. It might be to enjoy the freedom of the road, or perhaps you cannot afford to pay rent, or don’t want to. Perhaps you don’t trust the government and want to fly under their radar. Or maybe you are working to save money and want to live close to where you work. Whether through choice, or through hard times, living in a stealth van can be a good way to go – but only if you go about it right. It shows you how to live so as not to be noticed by the law or others, making no problems for anyone and minding your own business. Most communities have anti-vagrancy laws, but as long as you stay unnoticed and don’t create problems, stealth camping is usually tolerated by law enforcement. They have bigger problems to worry about than you not paying rent.
