Here are some tips for storing your utility trailer:
1. Choose Appropriate Space: If you have to park your trailer outside, applying a protective cover can prevent weathering and fading by shielding it from the elements.
2. Cover the Trailer: Covering your trailer can help protect it from the elements and prevent weathering and fading.
3. Relieve the Pressure: If you're storing your trailer for an extended period of time, it's a good idea to relieve the pressure on the tires by removing them or placing them on blocks.
4. Protect the Tires: To protect your tires from dry rot, clean and inspect them regularly to remove dirt and debris.
5. Grease the Moving Parts: Greasing the moving parts of your trailer can help prevent rust and corrosion².
6. Remove the Batteries: If your trailer has batteries powering the hydraulics and emergency breakaway systems, remove them and store them at room temperature to get the maximal battery life.
