Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Workamping in the fall or winter?
Permalink  

If we start full timing in Sept or October will it be easy to find workamper jobs?  Or are most of the jobs starting in the spring and summer.

I am trying to figure out the timing of when to make the jump.  Kind of scary especially with the health care the way it is....

You won't have any problem finding workamping jobs in the fall. We workamp pretty much all year round. Just depends on what part of the US you want to be in. If you're not on Workamper.com, join. Lots of ways to find jobs there, as well as some free sites. Google workamping..

Workamping jobs are available year round but certainly the numbers are lower after northern campgrounds and tourist areas shut down for the season.  Most posted workamping jobs are advertised and filled a few months in advance, so if you want Fall or Winter jobs, now is the time to start evaluating and applying for positions.

However, there are also positions that become available due to illness, changes in workamper circumstances, employers needing more people than they thought, workampers not showing up for their commitment, etc.  This is where a Workamper News subscription that includes the daily Hotline email (Silver level subscription or above) comes in handy.  The Hotline includes positions that are more of an immediate need, and there is an email sent out of those positions every business day which are accessible through the website.

We are a Workamper News Concierge and have a description of the different memberships/subscriptions, which changed in July 2015, here:  Workamper News Memberships  

You'll be fine.  :)

If you're looking for a fall/winter workkamping gig, there's always Amazon.
