What are the key benefits of joining a motorhome club like NZMCA (member discounts, park-over properties, social events, advocacy)?

Some motorhome clubs offer a range of benefits, including fuel and ferry discounts, access to designated "park-over" properties, social meetups, and resource sharing (such as routes and tips). They also play an important role in advocacy for motorhome owners across the country.

How much does it typically cost to join NZMCA or similar motorhome clubs?

For the NZMCA, annual fees are roughly $90–$110 for individual members, plus a joining fee. Other clubs may be cheaper or more expensive depending on the benefits they offer, so it is best to contact the club directly or check it’s website for the most current rates.

Are there online forums or Facebook groups where New Zealand motorhome owners share tips and experiences?

Yes, there are online forums for motorhome owners. The NZMCA has its own member forums and Facebook groups, such as New Zealand Motorhome & Motorvan Owners, which are very active. You can also find valuable discussions and community threads on Reddit and various RV blogs.

Are there motorhome clubs or associations in New Zealand that I can join, like the NZ Motor Caravan Association (NZMCA)?

Yes! Beyond the big NZ Motor Caravan Association (NZMCA), there are many niche communities. For instance, our clients love the Wilderness Motorhome Owners Group. You can also check out the NZMTG. Facebook is generally the best place to find a club that matches your specific travel style.
