There are devices known as cellular backup units that can be used with the alarm system in your RV. These devices allow an alarm signal to be transmitted to an alarm monitoring center who can in turn call the police when the alarm is triggered. When you moved the RV to a different location, you would need to call the monitoring center and give them an update on where you were parked.
There are also more sophisticated types of alarm monitoring systems that incorporate a GPS that would give your exact position. These are primarily intended for commercial applications but could be used in your situation as well. One provider of such systems is Contigo:
There are now entirely self-contained home security systems that are made for unique applications, (dorm rooms, boats, construction sites, etc). You may want to look into these as an option. They’re not cheap (they’re not overly expensive either), but they’re worth the investment.
