Trailer Maintenance Checklist for Peak Performance

Owning a trailer is an investment, and like any investment, it requires regular care to keep it performing at its best. At EmergencyTrailer.com, we recommend a monthly and seasonal maintenance schedule that keeps your trailer road-ready year-round.

Monthly checks:

• Inspect tires for wear, proper inflation, and damage.

• Check and lubricate the hitch coupler and safety chains.

• Test all lights and wiring for functionality.

  
  

Seasonal checks:

• Grease wheel bearings to prevent friction damage.

• Inspect the frame for rust, cracks, or loose bolts.

• Reapply protective coatings to wood decks or touch up paint on steel decks.

  
  

Not only does routine maintenance extend the life of your trailer, but it also ensures safe operation and reduces costly downtime. If you need professional trailer servicing, our experts can inspect, repair, and upgrade your trailer to keep it working as hard as you do.
