RV Dump Stations In Laramie, Wyoming

41.3114° N, 105.5911° W

Quick Overview

Laramie has several RV dump stations in the area, with some offering free access to travelers in this university city on the high plains of southeastern Wyoming. This Albany County seat of about 32,000 sits at 7,165 feet along I-80 and is home to the University of Wyoming, giving it a cultural energy unusual for a community of its size. RV dump station access and sani-dump facilities in Laramie serve I-80 corridor travelers and those exploring the Snowy Range Mountains to the west, where the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest provides excellent mountain recreation within a short drive of town. The sanitary dump station options in Laramie are important for cross-country RV travelers since the next major services eastbound on I-80 are in Cheyenne 50 miles away, and westbound the drive to Rawlins covers 100 miles of wide-open high desert with limited services. Laramie's downtown historic district features Victorian-era buildings, local restaurants, breweries, and shops that reflect both the university influence and the town's frontier heritage dating back to the Union Pacific Railroad's arrival in 1868. The Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historic Site where Butch Cassidy was once imprisoned provides a fascinating look at frontier justice. The Snowy Range Scenic Byway climbing to over 10,800 feet west of town is one of Wyoming's most spectacular drives during summer months.

Traveling to Laramie by RV

Laramie sits on I-80 at exits 310, 311, and 313, about 50 miles west of Cheyenne and 100 miles east of Rawlins. Highway 287 heads northwest toward Medicine Bow and Rawlins while Highway 130 climbs west into the Snowy Range. The I-80 corridor through Laramie is straightforward for all RV sizes. Wind is a persistent factor -- check forecasts as this corridor is prone to strong crosswinds and occasional road closures. Fuel stations and a Walmart are available near the interstate exits. A Safeway handles full provisioning. Cell coverage is good in town but fades in the mountains to the west.

Before You Go: RV Trip Essentials

Dump stations are only one piece of the trip puzzle. Before you set out for your trip to Laramie, Wyoming, it's worth taking thirty minutes to check that the basics are in place — the four areas below are where unprepared RVers most often get stung.

Check your RV insurance coverage

A standard auto policy rarely covers a Class A, Class C, or travel trailer the way a dedicated RV insurance policy does. If you're financing a motorhome, lenders typically require comprehensive and collision; full-timers should additionally price in vacation liability and personal belongings coverage. Rates vary widely by state and travel pattern — compare quotes from multiple RV-focused carriers before each season.

Know your roadside assistance options

RV-specific roadside plans tow motorhomes and trailers that regular AAA coverage won't touch — flat beds, mobile mechanics, tire service for duallies, and even emergency lockouts at remote campgrounds. Good plans cover your spouse and trailer even if you're driving a separate vehicle, and some include trip interruption reimbursement if a breakdown costs you a reservation.

Decide about an extended warranty early

Original manufacturer warranties on new RVs typically run 12–24 months — shorter than most buyers realize. An extended service contract (essentially a mechanical breakdown policy) covers the appliances, slides, levelling systems, and drivetrain components that can run $3,000–$10,000 to replace. The time to price one is before the factory coverage expires, not after something breaks.

Set up a travel rewards card for fuel and fees

A no-annual-fee travel or gas rewards card pays for itself on a single month of RV travel. Expect to spend $400–$800 per week combined on fuel, campgrounds, and propane — 3–5% cash back on gas alone covers the next oil change. For bigger trips, a sign-up bonus can offset campground fees for the whole season.
