Sam's Mobile Washing and Carpet Cleaning LLC
Yuma RV owners call this family-run outfit for mobile washing, waxing and carpet work, and its 4.9-star rating comes up a lot.
Yuma RV owners know what the desert sun does to gelcoat. It chalks it out, dulls the decals, and leaves black streaks that seem to come back overnight. There are 3 trailer washing detailers listed here, and they average 4.8 stars, so you have real choices. Two of them will come to your rig. One handles oxidation removal, which matters more in this town than in most places. Call ahead in snowbird season, because everybody wants their trailer cleaned at once.

Yuma detail shop with a 4.9 rating, handling RVs, boats, cars, and vans plus ceramic coating.
Mobile RV wash and wax serving Yuma and nearby towns, rated 4.5 from 127 reviews.
Three detailers show up in these listings, and all three offer trailer washing and wax. Sam's Mobile Washing and Carpet Cleaning LLC holds a 4.9 rating across 93 reviews and comes to you. Extreme Clean Detail Center also sits at 4.9 with 50 reviews and is the only one here doing ceramic coating, so if you want a coating applied after the wash, that narrows it fast. Benjamin's RV Wash has the most reviews at 127 and a 4.5 rating, and it is the one listed with oxidation removal and roof cleaning. If your fiberglass cap looks chalky and gray, that is the detailer to call first. Wax on top of oxidation just seals the mess in.
Two of the three detailers are mobile, which saves you hauling the trailer across town in summer heat. Ask two questions before you book. First, do they bring their own water and power, or do they need a hookup at your site. Second, what is the price per foot, since trailer washing is almost always quoted that way and the number varies with length and how much roof and awning get scrubbed. Wax is worth the money here. The sun works on fiberglass year round, and a coat of wax slows the fade. A ceramic coating costs more up front and needs occasional upkeep, but it lasts longer than wax. Neither is a permanent fix for gelcoat that has already oxidized, so get that handled first.
Move the trailer somewhere they can reach both sides and the roof without fighting a fence or a low carport. Empty the tanks if the detailer mentions interior work, and pull out anything you would rather not have moved. If you live in a park with rules about washing rigs on site, check those before you schedule a mobile visit, since some parks only allow it in certain spots or seasons. One detailer here lists roof cleaning, and that is not a step to skip. A dirty roof sheds streaks down the sides every time it rains or the dew burns off, and the sides look worse within a week. Ask for the roof to be washed along with the trailer, and ask whether the price covers it or adds to the total.
Three are listed here, and all three offer wax as well. The group averages 4.8 stars across their reviews. Two are mobile services that come to your trailer, and one offers ceramic coating. Call ahead in winter when snowbird traffic picks up and appointment times fill.
Yes, one of the three is listed with oxidation removal. That is the service to ask about first if your fiberglass has gone chalky or the decals look faded. Wax over oxidized gelcoat does not fix the problem, so have the surface corrected before you pay for a wax or a coating.
Wax costs less and you reapply it more often, which suits a lot of owners in Yuma sun. Ceramic coating runs higher up front and holds longer, but it still needs some upkeep to keep beading. Either way, correct the oxidation first. One detailer here offers ceramic coating.
Ask whether they bring their own water and power or need a hookup at your site. Ask for the price per foot and confirm whether roof cleaning and awning scrubbing are included. And check your park's rules on washing rigs on site before you book, since some places restrict it.
