How often are trailer inspections necessary?

Regular trailer inspections are essential to keep your trailer in the best possible condition. A good rule of thumb is to schedule annual trailer inspections . The weight of the trailer may also determine the appropriate schedule. For instance, North Carolina requires any trailer with a gross weight that exceeds 4,000 pounds to be inspected once a year.

How long do trailer tires last?

Trailer tires last for several years, but their exact lifespan depends on how frequently you are driving the trailer. For instance, if you drive between 10,000 and 15,000 miles each year, you can typically expect your tires to last about 3 to 5 years.

Inspections: Keeping up with inspections is a safety issue you don’t want to forego. A problem with a trailer can endanger others on the road, not to mention the investment you have in your truck, and even pose a risk to you personally. A regular inspection will give you peace of mind and also provide documentation to prove you take trailer maintenance seriously.
Floor and Door Repair: The last thing you need is to be held liable for loss of part of or an entire load because the floor or door of your trailer failed. Let us inspect and repair these pieces before they become a risk to your profits.
Brake Repair: Most owner-operators never fail to keep the brakes on their truck in top condition, but they sometimes overlook the brakes on the trailer, which are just as important. Have us check those out during routine trailer services and make any repairs needed.
Lighting & Wiring: We can quickly diagnose and resolve any issues with the wiring in your trailer, so you won’t be fined for lights out, or worse, be involved in an accident because a driver wasn’t alerted properly due to your brake lights or turn signals not working.
Tires: Affordable, reliable tires for your trailer are just as important as the ones on your truck, and may be even more so. We’ll provide the right solution for your trailer tires to fit your usage and budget. We also perform alignments to reduce the wear on your trailer tires.
