Beyond The Wheel

Ep. 36 Skoolie Homes

Have you ever seen a school bus going down the road or filling up at a gas station and thought, I bet that would make a great home on wheels? Well, you would be right! On today’s show, we are talking with Skoolie Homes owner, Missy Miller. Missy talks about the build process of taking a school bus and converting it into a Skoolie. Sean and I were certainly schooled in this episode since neither of us has real experience with Skoolies. Skoolie Homes can help find you a bus, then completely gut it and rebuild you a custom home that will be a perfect fit your needs. Missy tells the customers, “Look at how you are living right now. To keep yourself healthy not only physically, but spiritually, mentally, and emotionally and bring those things into your Skoolie build to accommodate those needs.”

Skoolie Cost

Something that really surprised us was the affordability of a skoolie. When I hear the words “custom build” I equate them to “big money,” but a skoolie home actually is cheaper than purchasing a new RV of equal size and amenities. If you are a bit of a DIY person, Skoolie Homes is really going to be able to save you some money, because they offer so many ways for you to build your own dream bus. They have mobile classes on how to build a skoolie on your own, blog posts, an online master class, and a new how-to book called, DIY Skoolie Guide: A Step-By-Step Bus Conversion Textbook.
