The TentBoxing code: simple rules for adventuring the right way

Last update by Sarah

At TentBox, we're all about freedom and adventure – but with that freedom comes a bit of responsibility. To make sure we’re welcome wherever we go, we all need to follow a few simple rules.

1. You’re responsible

First and foremost, you are responsible for yourself, your vehicle and everyone in your group at all times. 

2. Drive safely

Seems obvious, but always follow the Highway Code and be a considerate, safe driver – on and off the road.

3. Respect the locals

When passing through or parking up, be considerate of local communities and follow all local rules and regulations.

4. Be neighbourly

If you’re sharing the space with others, park considerately, keep noise levels down (especially at night), and always be friendly. 

5. Leave no trace

This is a big one. Take all rubbish and waste with you. Leave the place cleaner than you found it.

6. Take nothing 

No matter how tempting it might be, don’t take anything from nature – no flowers, rocks or driftwood souvenirs. Look, enjoy, and leave it be.

7. Toilet talk

We get it – nature calls. Use a proper toilet whenever possible or bring a portable one. Never go in the wild unless it's absolutely necessary and you know how to do it properly.

8. Camp respectfully

Follow all campsite rules. If you’re wild camping, learn and follow the local regulations – every area is different.

9. Follow TentBox user guidelines

Make sure your TentBox is installed correctly and checked regularly, following the official TentBox user guidelines

10. Be an ambassador

Wherever you go, you’re representing the TentBox Community. Let’s set the standard and make sure we’re always welcome.


Final thoughts

This code is all about respect. Together, we can protect the places we love, respect the people we meet and grow the TentBoxing movement in the right way.
