Trailers are the all important middle-man between garage and sea.
For that reason, keeping your trailer in good condition is essential.





- Give it a visual check for soft or bald tyres, dangling brake cables, damaged lights, broken mud guards, missing break-away cables and general corrosion.
- Carry out a regular full service: strip the hubs and brakes and either visually inspect the bearings or if they are sealed units listen for signs of damage from water ingress.
- Ensure you have a number plate that matches your car.
- Strap your PW down with at least 2 straps.
- Always carry a spare wheel, jack and a wheel brace.
- Ensure you have the correct classification on your driving licence (licences obtained after January 1997 may require an additional endorsement).
- Remember you are limited to 60mph on a motorway, or less if restrictions apply and you are not allowed to use the third lane.
