Carefree RV Service LLC

Carefree RV Service LLC is a mobile RV tech based in Forsyth, Missouri. It comes to you, whether that is a campground, a driveway or a storage lot, and it covers the greater Branson and Forsyth areas. It names no travel area beyond those two, so ask if your rig is farther out.

It works on absorption refrigerators, air conditioners and heat pumps, water heaters and furnaces, exterior systems, generators, solar power, plumbing, electrical, appliance repair, roof repair, awning repair and slide-outs. A rig with a stuck slide-out often cannot be moved safely, so a tech who comes to the campground can save a tow and a week at a shop. The business does not name which RV types or brands it works on, so ask before you book.

The trip fee is "$75 flat fee" within 20 miles of its Forsyth office, and "$75 + $2.00 per mile" outside that radius. Regular repair work is "$125/hour + parts" with a one hour minimum, and the first hour includes the diagnostic. Emergency work outside regular hours is "$225/hour + parts." Regular hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with Saturday and Sunday by appointment. The page also says "Our technician is available 24/7."

Richard Faulkner, a Marine Corps veteran and former federal government employee, is the named technician. His training came through the National RV Training Academy, and the business is also listed with the RV Technician Association of America. Ask which of the systems above his NRVTA training covered. The business promises "100% satisfaction guaranteed with our mobile RV service," and describes its technician as "Certified and insured." Google rates it 5 stars from 7 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner around Forsyth or Branson who wants the trip fee and hourly rate before the tech arrives, or for a traveler with a refrigerator, air conditioner or slide-out down at a campground in the area. Call 936.707.9977 and ask about the trip fee first.
