RV Transport Safety Checklist

RV trailer preparation

• Check tire condition, inflation and visible age or cracking.
• Verify wheel bearings, brakes, breakaway system and exterior lights.
• Confirm the coupler, kingpin or hitch components are secure and serviceable.
• Retract and secure slide-outs, awnings, steps, antennas and stabilizers.
• Lock windows, doors, exterior compartments and roof vents.
• Remove loose exterior accessories and secure interior belongings.
• Provide safe access and enough turning room at both locations.

Motorhome preparation

• Tell us accurately whether it starts, runs, steers and brakes.
• Check fluids, tires, batteries and basic operating systems for drive-away moves.
• Secure all personal items, doors, windows, awnings and slide-outs.
• Remove toll tags and record condition and mileage for your own records.

This is a general preparation guide, not a mechanical inspection. Repair concerns should be handled by a qualified RV technician before transport.
