Winter Maintenance Tips

With the winter months right around the corner, many trailer owners are getting ready to store their trailers away for the season. As a first-time owner, it can be a little difficult to know exactly what to prepare for - that’s why we’ve created a short guide to help you properly store your trailer for the winter.

An important step you should take in preparing your trailer for storage is to wash off all dirt and debris, giving your trailer a proper cleaning prior to storage is the easy way to prevent rust and grime build-up.

Another precautionary measure you should consider is removing your trailer’s battery. If your trailer model features a brake battery, it's best to remove the battery and have it stored indoors in order to maximize your battery's life. Removing your trailer’s battery also gives you the benefit of being able to charge it intermittently throughout the winter months.
