RVs and campers are tall, wide, and full of systems that can move or freeze. The transport plan should include the towable or motorized unit, its accessories, and the destination access—not just the VIN.
Measure the travel configuration
Record length, width, loaded height, weight, hitch or tongue weight, slide-out position, awnings, ladders, roof equipment, and propane or battery configuration. Confirm the route and trailer capacity.
Prepare systems and contents
Secure cabinets, doors, slides, awnings, antennas, vents, and loose accessories. Drain or winterize water systems when needed, follow propane rules, and photograph the interior and exterior.
Plan delivery access
Large RVs need turning room, overhead clearance, stable ground, and a plan for backing or final placement. Share a map and photos before dispatch.
