WALK-AROUND TRAILER INSPECTION

The majority of potential roadside issues can be eliminated by a walk-around visual inspection of the trailer. This should be done after hitching the trailer to the tow vehicle, and again at each fuel or rest stop. 

Make A Quick Visual Check Of: 

  • Coupler

  • Safety cables

  • Emergency brake cable

  • Wiring connector

  • Tie-downs

  • Tires

Look For:

  • Any obvious fluid leaks

  • Unusually hot brakes or hubs

  • Damage caused by road hazards 

  • Low tire pressure

Make a point to pay particular attention to the right (starboard) side of the trailer, as this is typically where most road hazard damage occurs.
