Shop RVs by Length: Find Your Perfect Fit
When shopping for an RV, bigger isn't always better—it's about finding the right size for your lifestyle. Your RV's length dictates two major things: What kind of vehicle you need to tow it, and where you can park it.
If you plan on exploring older Provincial and National Parks across Canada, a shorter rig will easily navigate those tight, heavily wooded campsites. If you plan on setting up at a seasonal park for the entire summer or traveling down south for the winter, a longer rig gives you the ultimate residential comfort and living space.
Browse our inventory by length below to find the perfect balance of road maneuverability and campground comfort.
1. RVs Under 20 Feet
The "Go-Anywhere" Campers
Agile, lightweight, and incredibly easy to tow. RVs under 20 feet are perfect for minimalist campers who want a hard wall between them and the elements without the hassle of a massive rig. Many of these units can be easily towed by mid-sized SUVs or light trucks, making them the ultimate weekend getaway vehicles.
-
Best For: Solo travelers, adventurous couples, and off-grid boondockers.
-
Where They Shine: Tight, remote campsites, easy driveway storage, and maximum fuel efficiency.
2. RVs Under 25 Feet
The Weekend Warrior Sweet Spot
Stepping up to the under-25-foot category gives you the best of both worlds. You gain fully functional amenities—like dry bathrooms, larger kitchens, and walk-around beds—while remaining short enough to fit into almost any Provincial or National Park site in the country. Most of these are easily half-ton towable.
-
Best For: Small families, couples, and first-time RV owners.
-
Where They Shine: State/Provincial Parks and cross-country road trips where maneuverability is key.
3. RVs Under 30 Feet
The Family Favorite
This is the most popular length category for families. Approaching 30 feet allows for deep slide-outs, dedicated bunkhouses for the kids, and larger living areas for those rainy days at the campsite. While you will need a capable half-ton truck or larger SUV, these rigs still tow beautifully and offer plenty of living space without feeling overwhelmingly long on the highway.
-
Best For: Growing families and campers who frequently host guests.
-
Where They Shine: Private campgrounds, family road trips, and extended weekend stays.
4. RVs Over 30 Feet
Maximized Space & Comfort
Once you cross the 30-foot mark, you are entering residential territory. These RVs feature massive living areas, multiple slide-outs, huge kitchens with islands, and private master bedrooms. Because of their size and weight, you will typically need a heavy-duty half-ton or a 3/4-ton truck (like an F-250 or 2500) to tow them comfortably.
-
Best For: Large families, extended-season campers, and luxury couples.
-
Where They Shine: Large pull-through sites, RV resorts, and long-term travel.
5. RVs Over 40 Feet
The Ultimate Home on Wheels
These are the giants of the campground. At over 40 feet, these luxury fifth wheels, destination trailers, and massive toy haulers offer unparalleled amenities. Think king-sized beds, massive residential refrigerators, multiple bathrooms, and soaring ceilings. These are generally towed to a seasonal site and left there, or pulled by a heavy-duty 1-ton dually truck for full-time living.
-
Best For: Snowbirds, full-timers, seasonal park placements, and luxury living.
-
Where They Shine: Seasonal RV parks, luxury resorts, and permanent lots.
