Do you build one-off custom platforms?

If BamBeds designs the platform (a vehicle or layout we do not already make), that work starts at $5,000 and is quoted before production. A 3D scan in San Luis Obispo, California is usually required.

If you already have cut files, we can machine them. That program starts at $500 plus cut charges. See the Custom Design page.

If you want a vehicle added to the catalog, email support@bambeds.com with year, make, and model. That is a request, not a custom order.

Are there sales or discounts?

We don't ask for tips, please don't ask for discounts!

Are there any special care instructions for BamBeds?

Bamboo Care:

Wax is applied to the bamboo during initial finishing to protect from moisture and to bring out the best colors from the material. If you notice your Bamboo starting to fade you can reapply a basic beeswax to restore the finish. Recommendation Here: Howard's Feed n Wax

Birch Care:

If your boards are used in wet environments, i.e. not under a camper shell, exposed to fish guts or have wetsuits left soaking for days. It can be beneficial to coat your boards with a water based polyurethane sealant like this: Minwax Wipe On Poly

Sanding:

If you want to do a full refinishing of your boards, use a 150-250 grit sandpaper to eliminate any deep stains or blend away scratches.

Does it fit with my aftermarket accessories?

Our products are designed for the most common OE version of the vehicle. Any accessories including OE accessories may need to be removed in order to use our products, if you have any questions please email photos of your parts to support@bambeds.com.
