The co-owner of the Yahoo group known as Walmart RVing recently announced the group will be shutting down. It was founded on December 14, 2005; nearly 14 years ago. The decision to shut the group down was made because of the impending changes Yahoo is making to the Groups feature of its website. Beginning in mid-December, “Yahoo Groups will no longer host user created content on its sites.”
Members of the group contributed information via email about Walmart locations that allowed or prohibited overnight RV parking. The group’s admin would verify the information and make it available in a spreadsheet and PDF format that could be downloaded. With Yahoo’s changes, this feature would no longer be possible. The group had nearly 10,000 members.
Over the past several years, the Walmart RVing group graciously allowed this website (Walmart Locator) to reproduce the list of Walmart stores that prohibited overnight parking. We deeply appreciate the efforts put into managing the information and are thankful the owner allowed us to reproduce the information for our site visitors.
