Comprehensive Utility, Boat & Box Trailer Inspections – Under 16,000 lbs

Regular trailer inspections are essential for keeping you safe on the road, protecting your equipment, and preventing costly breakdowns. We recommend a bi-annual inspection for all trailer types—Utility, Boat, and Box—to ensure everything is functioning properly and to stay ahead of wear, corrosion, and mechanical issues.

Whether you rely on your trailer for work, recreation, or hauling equipment, our trained technicians will complete a thorough multi-point inspection and provide you with a clear report of any maintenance needs.

Why Trailer Inspections Matter

A full, comprehensive inspection should be completed twice per year.  This will help you:

  • Prevent accidents caused by brake failures, light outages, or worn components

  • Extend the lifespan of your trailer through proactive maintenance

  • Protect your investment and avoid major repairs

  • Ensure legal compliance and road-readiness

  • Feel confident hauling heavy equipment, recreational gear, or watercraft

All inspections cover trailers under 16,000 lbs and follow a detailed multi-point checklist including brakes, hubs, bearings, electrical systems, suspension, frame condition, tires, safety chains, couplers, lights, and more.
