SO HOW DO I GET AN ESTIMATE

To provide you with an accurate estimate we will need to know the following information:

  • Tow vehicle information including:
    • Year
    • Make
    • Model
    • Edition
    • If you have an aftermarket bumper installed (you will need to provide a picture of the bumper or bring your tow vehicle by).
  • Motorhome information:
    • Year
    • Make
    • Model
    • Chassis brand including gas or diesel.

I HAVE AN ESTIMATE AND I AM READY TO START THE PROCESS!

Each flat tow setup is unique, meaning these are special order parts.  We do require a deposit on all parts to get these items ordered.  Labor will be due at the completion of the installation.

Once we have received all parts, we will call you to schedule an appointment.  This appointment will be for the vehicle being towed, not your motorhome.  On average, we will need your tow vehicle for 3-days minimum.  90% of labor is spent on the tow vehicle itself.

Whether you drop your motorhome off at the same time as the tow vehicle or schedule it for a few days later, once the work on the tow vehicle is complete, we will then need your motorhome to complete the tow package.  This allows us time to check for any adjustments that need to be made for height difference between the motorhome and tow vehicle, we also fully test the braking system for proper operation.  Additionally, if your motorhome has a diesel engine, we will need to install an expansion tank.    Allowing us time with both vehicles ensures your vehicles are safe for towing and ensures a seamless demonstration at pick-up time!

Finally, you will be scheduled for pick-up with a full demonstration.  Feel free to record the demonstration and ask questions.  We take pride in the work that we do and want to ensure you feel confident and safe towing your vehicle.
