FREQUENCY OF CHECKS AND SERVICING

This all depends on what type of trailer and how often it gets used, but a typical guideline is as follows:

Before each journey - particular checks are necessary for safety reasons e.g. lights, tyres, wheel nuts, breakaway cable and security of load.

Every 3000 miles (5000 km) - for industrial / commercial trailers with intensive usage, by type of application or mileage towed, plus boat trailers which have been immersed in water.

Every 6000 miles (10,000km) / Serviced annually - for leisure and caravans.
