Ushuaia waives dump station fee for motorhomes to curb illegal waste disposal

Armed criminals stole a motorhome with a family inside in the Argentine city of Mar del Plata. The incident occurred on Monday evening on a highway when the father pulled over. Two children who were outside were left on the roadside but were later found safe by police. The stolen vehicle and trailer were located the next day in a vacant lot.

Armed robbers attacked a family from Mendoza in Mar del Plata after they stopped on Route 226. The assailants stole a Toyota Hilux pickup truck with an attached motorhome, which contained the victim's wife and two younger children. The two older sons, aged 11 and 8, were left on the roadside at night.

Motorhomes arriving in Ushuaia are exempt from paying for sewage discharge services. The free service is available at the Bahía Golondrina pre-treatment plant from Monday to Saturday. The measure aims to prevent illegal dumping in the city, where motorhomes are prohibited from overnight stays within the urban area.

Authorities have eliminated the fee for using the official wastewater dumping station for motorhomes. The measure aims to promote legal waste disposal and reduce environmental hazards.

A new tourism route designed for motorhome travelers has been introduced in Argentina's Mendoza province. The initiative aims to boost domestic tourism by providing dedicated infrastructure for this travel segment.

Argentina's La Pampa province has joined the federal 'Ruta de Rodanteros' network, offering 15 designated stops for motorhomes and travel trailers. The sites provide services like water, electricity, showers, and waste disposal. The initiative aims to attract the growing RV tourism segment and boost local spending.
