    Why Schertz

    Built for Schertz owners.

    Schertz family households often own a boat and an RV both. Driveways here are big enough for a 28-ft travel trailer or a Class C motorhome, and most owners trailer to Canyon Lake (30 minutes) or take state-park trips with the family rig. We work Schertz neighborhoods on a weekly rotation.

    Owner profile. Schertz is family-suburb NE of San Antonio with mid-size lots, driveway boats, and a healthy population of Class C motorhomes and travel trailers used for state-park trips to Garner, Pedernales Falls, and Inks Lake.

    A truck camper is a self-contained RV that drops into the bed of a pickup. Slide it in, tie down four corners, drive anywhere your truck can drive. They're the choice for hunters who want to overnight at the lease, dispersed campers who want to go where trailers can't, and overlanders who put a Northern Lite on a Tundra and drive into Big Bend. They take a beating — gravel road dust, tie-down rub on the bed rails, propane tank exposure, and the cab-over bunk that sits over the truck cab. Most local detailers won't touch them because they're awkward to access (especially when still in the truck bed) and the cab-over is a steep climb. We do them all.

    Schertz questions

    What owners always ask.

    Yes — Schertz home driveways, storage yards, and resort sites are all part of our regular Schertz route. We bring our own water and power so site hookups aren't required.

    Yes — we work around the truck. We use a ladder to access the cab-over and roof, and we hand-wash the underbody from the sides where it's exposed. If you'd prefer the camper on jacks, that's fine too — we can work either way.

    Yes — every detail includes a tie-down inspection. We look for fiberglass wear at the four corner anchor points, stress cracking around the anchors, and abrasion on the truck bed rails. Anything concerning gets photographed and flagged.

    Yes — we set up the camper if needed, clean the canvas or hardshell pop-up, treat the gaskets, and reproof any fabric panels. Pop-up campers have unique seam care needs and we treat them appropriately.

    Yes. Caliche dust and Texas backcountry dirt come off with the right pre-soak and pressure rinse. Off-road underbody degrease is an add-on if the chassis is heavily caked.

    We service home driveways, storage yards, and most local RV parks. For remote ranch service (Brackettville, Cotulla, Carrizo Springs), we'll travel with a minimum job size. Call to discuss.

    A standard exterior + interior on a Lance 825 or Northern Lite 8-11 starts at $400. A larger Eagle Cap 1165 or Arctic Fox 1140 with heavy oxidation runs $600-800. Add ceramic coating or pop-up canvas reproof and it pushes to $900.
