Built for the jobsite week

Everything between the jobsite and real life.

Boom Town Gear is organized around the practical rhythm of a traveling crew: where to stay, what to pack, how to keep an RV working, where to wash clothes, what to eat, how to cool down, and where to go when the shift finally ends.

Starter kit

Shop by the problems crews actually have.

Each kit page is built like a real packing list, with enough depth to cover heat, RV life, workwear, laundry, food, sleep, charging, and truck utility without making crews hunt through random recommendations.

Work boots, hard hat, cooler, water bottle, and RV gear arranged on a pickup tailgate

Quick filter

Find the right category fast.

Heat survival, RV living, work gear, lunch prep, laundry, recovery, charging, and truck utility are treated like real departments instead of loose recommendations.

Local Directory

Local options workers can scan quickly.

Filter by need, scan the short notes, and jump straight to local businesses or request help when the problem needs a human follow-up.

Common needs

The problems that come up every week.

Heat, RV living, laundry, showers, food, and transportation are the repeat problems. Boom Town Gear keeps those categories easy to scan so crews can solve the next thing without starting from scratch.

Abilene area

Useful after the shift, too.

The area pages help crews and visiting family find downtown resets, outdoor breaks, family stops, nearby towns, and local places worth spending time and money.
