Here is a LONG LIST of jobs that real RVers do to make money while RVing. Maybe you’ll find something you’re well-qualified for and would enjoy…
One of our RV Lifestyle members recently posted on Facebook to find out what other REAL RVers do to make money while on the road. She wrote:
What do you do for remote work when you’re living/traveling in RV. We’re looking into traveling, my husband is retired, and I’d like to find something remote.
We’ve written a few articles on how to find jobs while traveling, but we’ve never made a long list of job possibilities. This Facebook post, along with several others, gives us great insight into the many jobs RVers do from the road.
So, we decided to compile a long list of ways people make money while RVing based on the hundreds of Facebook responses. We figure there’s no better way to be inspired than to see just how many options are out there.

Main Categories of Work You Can Do From the Road
Generally speaking, there are broad categories of work that RVers can do from the road. Most positions fall into one of these three categories.
Traveling Jobs
These positions require you to travel to different locations to work. Some examples of traveling jobs include traveling nurse or railroad worker.
Remote Work
With the rise of remote work, many companies now allow their employees to work from anywhere as long as they have a stable internet connection. Having stable internet on the road is challenging, but it is possible.
Freelance Work
If you have skills like writing, graphic design, or programming, you can find freelance work online and complete projects from your RV. You can often do these jobs without a constant internet connection.
Online Business
Starting an online business is another way to make money while RVing. You can start a blog, sell products online, or offer consulting services.
Seasonal Work
Many RVers work seasonal jobs at campgrounds, national parks, and tourist attractions. These jobs can include campground hosts, tour guides, or maintenance workers.
Other seasonal jobs revolve around the holidays, including retail, delivery drivers, pumpkin patches, Christmas tree lots, and more.
Workout
Working out is a combination of work and camping. RVers can work at campgrounds, RV parks, and other outdoor locations in exchange for a free campsite and sometimes even a wage.

How to Get the Perfect Camp Host Job
A camp host, or work camper (sometimes spelled workamper), is a person who does things around a campsite in exchange for a free camping spot. In some cases, camp hosts are also paid. Camp host jobs may be on a public or private campground, though each working opportunity works a little differently.
