Independent RV inspections in Longview, WA, rated 4.8 from 109 reviews, with mobile service and detailed reports.
Washington rigs see rain on the west side and hard sun east of the mountains, and both find their way into seals, roofs and storage bays. Thirteen mobile inspectors cover the state, and 11 of them handle pre-purchase work. I have paid for two inspections and walked away from one motorhome after the report came back wet. Here is how to use this list before you hand over money.

Of the 13 mobile inspectors listed here, 11 do pre-purchase inspections and 12 work on motorhomes. Eleven check for moisture and 11 handle leak work, which tells you the trade in Washington knows where the problems live. Only 12 list propane, so confirm that before you book if the rig has a furnace or stove you plan to use. Ratings average 4.1, with OGRVS at 4.8 across 109 reviews and Roots Mobile RV Service at 4.8 across 50. A1 RV Repair appears with several listings and mixed ratings, so read the reviews on the exact one you call. The count matters less than the match. A mobile inspector who does not travel to your storage yard is no help, and one without motorhome experience may miss chassis and drivetrain items on a Class A.
Schedule the inspection while your deposit is still refundable. A written report should cover roof condition, moisture readings with a meter, propane system checks, generator run time and fluid analysis where offered. Ask what the inspector will not check, since some skip the chassis or the roof if weather turns. Never use an inspector the seller recommends. Pay the inspector yourself so the report belongs to you. When the findings arrive, get repair estimates in writing before you renegotiate. On my first rig the moisture readings alone justified walking away, and the seller did not argue.
NRVIA certification comes in levels, and the higher level covers more systems and more training hours. Ask which level your inspector holds and whether the report follows that standard. A mobile inspector brings the tools to you, which suits rigs sitting in storage or at a dealer lot far from a shop. Keep the report, photos and any fluid analysis results with your purchase paperwork. If a problem shows up later, those records show what was checked and when. Confirm the inspection price and travel fee up front, and get the report in writing rather than a phone summary.
Thirteen. Eleven of them offer pre-purchase inspections and 12 work on motorhomes, so most of the list can handle a Class A or C before you buy.
Eleven of the 13 check for moisture, and 11 also list leak work. That is a good sign for a state where rain and condensation find weak seals.
Certification is not required by law, but it signals training. NRVIA levels differ in how many systems are covered, so ask which level the inspector holds and whether the report follows that standard.
No. Pay for it yourself so the report is yours and the inspector answers to you. An inspector recommended by the seller has a reason to go easy on the rig.
