Company Information

About Sandy Vans

At Sandy Vans, we build adventure-ready vans and premium modular systems designed to elevate the utility, comfort, and style of off-road and overland vehicles. As part of our continued growth, we’ve acquired Solid Wood Worx (SWW) — now fully integrated into our operations as our in-house woodworking and fabrication division.

This means we now not only build the vans — we craft every drawer system, bed platform, and custom wood component that makes them feel like home on the road. If you’re passionate about building with precision and want to be part of a hands-on, fast-growing team, we’d love to hear from you.

One of the best parts about being part of a growing company is that you get to wear many hats — your ideas matter, your contributions are seen, and you have the opportunity to make a real impact as we scale.
