Where can I get transit bus repair?

OCRV Center repairs transit bus in-shop at our Yorba Linda facility, the only full-service RV, van, and trailer collision and service specialist in north Orange County. We handle collision, paint, structural, roof, slide, and systems work, bill every major carrier direct, and keep our estimates written and detailed.

What we repair on transit bus

We repair Transit Bus units of all years and conditions at our Yorba Linda facility. As part of our buses and municipal fleets work, a transit bus gets a documented inspection, a written estimate, and the full range of collision, paint, structural, roof, slide, and systems repair where it applies.

We work on all years, all makes, and all classes, and transit bus get the same specialist treatment as everything else in our shop: a documented inspection, a written estimate, and direct billing with your insurance carrier when the work is a claim.

Body, cab, and structural repair

For fleet and commercial trucks we are a body, paint, structural, and equipment shop, not a mechanical shop. We repair cab, box, and reefer bodies and the structure that keeps them square and weatherproof.

Keeping trucks looking sharp and running safely is a real business advantage, and it is exactly the work we focus on.

Equipment, doors, and lift gates

Doors, lift gates, service and utility bodies, racks, and hitches wear and break, and we install and repair all of them. Equipment that works every day needs a shop that fixes it fast and correctly.

We scope the body and equipment work clearly up front so there are no surprises.

Refinishing, graphics, and DOT marking

We refinish, apply graphics and wraps, install DOT reflective marking, and apply protective coatings. What we do not do is engine, drivetrain, or DOT inspection work.

Being clear about that up front gets your truck to the right shop for mechanical needs and keeps our work focused on what we do best.

Our in-shop process

Every job follows the same clear, documented path so you always know where your vehicle stands.

Bring it in or file a claim

Drive in for a thorough collision estimate or open an insurance claim. We work direct with every major carrier and handle the paperwork with your adjuster.

Inspection and written estimate

A specialist inspects the vehicle and writes a detailed estimate. Hidden damage is documented with photos so your claim reflects the real repair.

Approval and scheduling

We get carrier approval, order parts, and schedule the work. You get a clear timeline and a point of contact for the whole job.

Repair by specialists

Structural, body, paint, and systems work is performed in-house by techs who only work on RVs, vans, and trailers. No farming the hard parts out.

Quality control and delivery

Every repair is inspected against our standards, color matched, and road-tested where applicable. You pick up a vehicle that looks and works right, backed by our warranty.

Why OCRV Center

Owners choose OCRV Center for transit bus repair because we do the hard parts in-house instead of farming them out.

  • Specialists, not generalists: structural, fiberglass, slide, paint, and systems work performed in-house by techs who only work on RVs, vans, and trailers.
  • The insurance repair expert: we bill every major carrier direct, document hidden damage, and push for the correct repair so your claim covers the real cost.
  • Warranty that means it: written workmanship guarantee on all collision repair, plus our systems and paint warranties.
  • In-shop only, one standard: everything happens at our 35,000 square foot Yorba Linda facility, with no mobile shortcuts and no sublet surprises.
  • Honest, written pricing: thorough collision estimates, ballpark ranges on every page, and a written estimate before any work begins.

Insurance and your claim

A damaged RV, van, or trailer is not a normal auto claim, so the shop you choose matters.

We document visible and hidden damage with photos, write a complete estimate, and submit supplements when teardown reveals more, so a thin first estimate does not leave you paying out of pocket. Collision estimates are written after inspection and insurance walk-ins are always welcome.

We bill these carriers direct: Progressive, GEICO, State Farm, AAA SoCal, AAA Enterprises, Mercury, Allstate, American Family, Wawanesa, National General, CSAA, Foremost, Liberty Mutual, Tesla, Cincinnati, AGWS, with direct repair relationships on select carriers. Insurance-billed jobs may use carrier-negotiated rates that differ from our posted retail rates.
