A collision involving your travel trailer, fifth wheel, or motorhome is stressful. Here is a practical sequence that protects both your coach and your insurance claim.
- Safety first. Move the unit out of traffic if possible and check for injuries. Call emergency services if needed.
- Document everything. Take clear photos of all damage, the other vehicle (if any), license plates, and the overall scene. Note the date, time, and location.
- Notify your insurance company. Report the claim promptly. Ask whether they have preferred RV body shops in the Rancho Cucamonga / Inland Empire area and whether you can choose your own repair facility.
- Choose a shop that understands RVs. Regular auto body shops often lack the experience and equipment for fiberglass caps, aluminum sidewalls, and RV-specific structural repairs. Look for a facility with enclosed bays, in-house paint capability, and a track record with major carriers.
- Get a professional estimate. Schedule an appointment so the damage can be properly evaluated. Bring any insurance claim number and adjuster contact information if you already have them.
At Inland Valley RV we handle the coordination with State Farm, Progressive, GEICO, Farmers, Nationwide, Mercury, Safeco, The Hartford, Travelers, Allstate, Foremost, National General (NGIC), Liberty Mutual, and other carriers so you can focus on getting back on the road. Labor on our work is backed by a 60-day warranty. Learn more about our collision and body repair process.
