Motorhome, Marine & Equipment Testing

Certified onsite testing for motorhomes, marine vessels, and equipment across California—helping you stay compliant with minimal downtime.

Mobile Clean Truck Check Testing for Diesel Motorhomes

California-registered diesel motorhomes with a gross vehicle weight rating over 14,000 pounds may be subject to Clean Truck Check reporting, annual fees, and emissions testing.

We help motorhome owners complete the required testing and resolve CARB or DMV compliance issues.

We Come to Your Motorhome

There is no need to drive your motorhome to a testing facility.

Our credentialed tester travels to the location of the motorhome and completes the required OBD test or smoke opacity and visual inspection.

Testing may be available at your home, storage facility, RV park, repair facility, or another suitable location.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Often Is Testing Required?

Most motorhomes subject to the CARB Clean Truck Check program are required to complete emissions compliance testing once per year. The exact testing schedule depends on your vehicle and CARB requirements. Our team will help you determine your testing dates, monitor deadlines, and ensure your motorhome remains compliant.

What Type of Test Will My Motorhome Need?

Most diesel motorhomes with 2013 or newer engines require an OBD test.

Motorhomes with 2012 or older diesel engines generally require a smoke opacity test and a visual inspection of the emissions control equipment.

We can confirm the appropriate test before scheduling your appointment.

Registration Hold or SB 210 Notice?

A Clean Truck Check registration hold may occur when the motorhome has not been properly reported, annual fees remain unpaid, or a passing test has not been submitted.

Send us the notice or contact our team. We will review the situation and explain what is needed.
