Contact your insurance company before contracting for any collision repair to your RV. Some insurance companies have their own lists of approved RV repair dealers. Copy the list and do some investigation about the recommended repair dealers. If you disagree with your insurance company, put your objections in writing and wait for their reply.

Check with clubs or groups you belong to. As an RV owner, you probably have membership in an RV club or group such as Good Sam or Coast to Coast. There may be recommendations from the club or group members who've gone through the same thing. Ask the administration of the club or group if there are any "official" recommendations for collision repair dealers.

Call the RV dealer where you bought the RV. The RV dealer may have a collision repair shop on site, or they may be able to recommend a collision repair dealer. Make sure you ask if they've used the repair dealer before and if they were satisfied.

Contact the RV manufacturer to find an RV repair dealer they would recommend. Go online to your manufacturer's official website, and look for a "service locator" button. Click the button and a map will come up. Click on your area or enter your zip code to find an RV repair dealer recommended by the manufacturer.
