RV & Trailer Towing for Falfurrias drivers, done by licensed Coastal Bend operators. An RV breakdown in the middle of a trip is stressful. A Class A motorhome is a small truck and needs a heavy wrecker.

What is rv & trailer towing like in Falfurrias, TX?
US-281 carries 2,500 trucks a day through Falfurrias, and the checkpoint is 13 miles south with no help in between.
Falfurrias is the Brooks County seat, sitting at the intersection of US-281 and SH-285 about 78 miles southwest of Corpus Christi. Edward Lasater founded the town in 1904, brought in Jersey cattle, built a creamery in 1909, and made Falfurrias butter a name known across Texas. The dairy's gone but the identity stuck. The town still calls itself the Land of Heart's Delight. Brooks County is one of the lowest-income counties in Texas, and 92.6% of Falfurrias residents are Hispanic. Spanish is not the second language here. It's the first. The US-281 Falfurrias Border Patrol Checkpoint is 13 miles south of town, a three-lane facility that opened in 1994 and was expanded in 2019 with new X-ray equipment. About 10,500 vehicles pass through daily, and around 2,500 of them are commercial 18-wheelers. Every northbound truck gets inspected: brake lines, tires, weight, paperwork. A truck with a defect that makes it through the checkpoint but can't hold speed heading north has nowhere to go. Falfurrias has no heavy-duty truck repair, and the nearest real yard is in Alice or south Corpus. We've run down US-281 to pull commercial rigs off the shoulder before, and we'll do it again. SH-285 heads east from Falfurrias 33 miles to Riviera and US-77. There's nothing on that road between the two endpoints: no fuel, no mechanic, no cell tower you can count on. A driver who takes SH-285 and has engine trouble halfway across is calling from the middle of South Texas brush country. We know that route. Si su vehículo se quedó tirado en el 281 o en la 285, llámenos. Despachamos en español y conocemos estas carreteras.

Can a Class A motorhome be towed?
Yes. The heavy wreckers in the network are rated for Class A motorhomes up to 50,000 lb GVWR. For diesel pushers, driveline disconnect prevents transmission damage. Give the year, make, and chassis when you call so the right truck goes out.
What about a fifth-wheel?
Fifth-wheels need a safe disconnect from the tow vehicle before recovery, which the operator handles on scene. From there, the trailer goes on a landoll or lowboy for transport. If the tow vehicle is what broke down, both can move on the same job.
