Caravans (like conventional trailers, boat trailers and horse floats) require consistent servicing and up keep to guarantee they are secure and will not affect your driving or breaking distance. Likewise, this will help keep away from extra fuel use.

Issues with brakes or wheel bearings can make it hard to control the trailer or caravan while towing and can incredibly increase breaking distance and fuel utilisation, particularly when heavily loaded.

To guarantee safety, the wheel bearings, brakes, and running gear of the trailer or caravan should be checked at least once a year. 

Roly's Automotive Services can check your brakes and bearings and let you know whether they need to be upgraded or replaced.

Furthermore, the majority of trailer and caravan manufacturers advise that towed vehicles be serviced every 10,000km or 12 months, especially for those who frequently tow their caravan or trailer; regular service can lessen fuel expenditure in addition to addressing safety issues. 

Even if the trailer or caravan is not often used, it should still be serviced at least once a year.

When driving off the beaten path, regular caravan touring can betaxing on the tyres, suspension, body, and othercomponents. To maintain your vehicle and make sure every thing is in working order, you should consider a yearly service. At the service appointment, our experts will conduct a thorough check list and habitation damp report.

Trailer maintenance is incredibly important. Even if you don't use your trailer regularly you should still have it serviced at least once per year. Lack of use brings its own problems and requirements, and you should still have your towed vehicle checked on a regular basis to ensure components have not failed or deteriorated without your knowledge.
