Meet the Crabby RV Services Family!
We are Tyler & Victoria Porter and together we proudly run this small business - Crabby RV Services - with our two adorable little helpers, out of our very own Camper!
Tyler is an Air Force Veteran with a background in criminal justice and law enforcement. Victoria is a hair stylist turned full time home-schooling Mama. We live in our RV year-round and travel as much as possible; but always try to make it home in time for crabbing season!
When we aren't busy working we enjoy exploring local zoos, state parks, marshes and anywhere else the wildlife is. Also we love a good pool day, crabbing (of course!), & the famed Sunday-Fundays hanging out with all our friends and family - wherever that may be!
Thanks to our families deep love of everything Blue Crab - here is our new logo! And despite what our name suggests, we promise that Crabby RV Services will happily be there for you, ensuring you have the most enjoyable camping experiences!
Well, in short: because in spring of 2021 we decided to sell our dream home and everything we owned, buy an RV, and hit the road! We honestly had no idea what we were doing. All we knew was that God kept calling us to build a better life for our kids. Not that it was a bad life before- we had everything we were supposed to have. But we weren't fulfilled. We wanted a life that allowed us to be more intentional and hands on with how we raised them. A life where we got to choose how and where we spend our time and how to take care of this great world we all tend to take for granted.
We tried a few different 'workamping' experiences after some time of just roaming around - including one cool summer at The Gaylord KOA followed by the UnBEETable Experience in MI. This is where we fell in love with the lifestyle! But in order to continue living it we needed to come up with something mobile that we could ideally do together. Above all: we wanted it to be something that would make a difference to people just like us.
This led us right to the NRVTA: where Tyler graduated as a Nationally Certified RV Technician! We decided to start small and pick a specialty as we navigated this new area of expertise; Leading us to both become certified tank cleaners. Our 'side hustle' took off almost immediately! So it was time to make it official. After much prayer and planning our family business was finally born in April of 2024! We are truly blessed to finally be living our American Dream, even if it appears somewhat unconventional from the outside.
