Driving a Campervan around Anchorage
- No toll roads operate in or near the city, so you only pay for fuel.
- Campervans up to 13 ft 6 in (4.1 m) height can pass under all bridges on the Glenn and Seward Highways, but check height limits on older downtown overpasses.
- Winter tyres or chains are required from October to April. Studded tyres are legal statewide.
- Parking overnight on public streets is not allowed. Use an RV park or a state campground outside the city limits.
- Most petrol stations operate 24 hours along the Glenn Highway, which is helpful for early ferry departures from Whittier.
- Moose often cross roads at dusk on Minnesota Drive and the Seward Highway. Drive slowly and keep headlights on low beam.
- Free waste dump stations are available at the municipal station on the Old Seward Highway and at many highway rest areas.
- Downtown parking has fees on weekdays from 09:00-18:00. Pay at the machine or with the EasyPark mobile app.

Frequently Asked Questions
What licence do you need to drive a campervan in the USA?
All drivers must have a current and full driving licence to hire a vehicle. Foreign licences are generally acceptable if they are in English or accompanied by an accredited English translation, otherwise, an International Driving Permit is required.
In addition to your driving licence, you will often be required to show your passport at the time of pick-up.
Some companies may require an IDP or official English translation depending on the language of your licence. For example, Road Bear requires an international driving licence translation if the original licence doesn't have an English translation, and Britz recommends an international driving licence for translation purposes.
Can I travel from the US to Canada in my hired campervan?
This depends on the company. Several suppliers will allow you to travel to Canada in your hire vehicle, including Road Bear, El Monte, Cruise America, Escape Rentals, Campervan North America and Travellers Autobarn (Canada entry fee applies).
Please contact support for information on other suppliers. You must comply with visa and customs requirements at all times.
Can I rent a one-way campervan in the US?
Yes, a large number of companies allow for one-way rentals. One-way rentals are not available on all routes, and additional fees apply, depending on the pickup and drop-off location.
Our comparison tool will automatically factor rental costs between two locations and show you which vehicles are available on your preferred route.
Are there any restrictions on where I can take my RV in the US?
Most hire companies only allow their vehicles to be driven on sealed roads.
In addition, note the following restrictions regarding specific areas:
- Mexico - Travel to Mexico is generally prohibited in hire vehicles; some suppliers (such as El Monte) may allow it under certain conditions and with additional insurance.
- Death Valley - Restrictions can vary between suppliers. Some suppliers restrict travel during the hottest months of the year. Check with your hire supplier for full details.
- New York City/City Centre Manhattan - Some hire suppliers restrict travel in or through Manhattan (and sometimes parts of NYC). Check your hire agreement for full details.
- Canada - Motorhomes are generally allowed; however, travel to certain locations may be restricted during colder seasons.
If you take your vehicle where it is not permitted, you will be liable for all damage incurred, and an additional fine may be imposed.
Check your hire agreement for any further restrictions regarding your motorhome hire.
