Fleet Maintenance Tips
Trailer Inspection Checklist for Indiana Fleets
Use this trailer inspection checklist for Indiana fleets to catch safety issues before they lead to roadside violations.
Why Trailers Get Overlooked
Trailers are easy to forget until something fails. They do not have engines or odometers, but they carry heavy loads and face the same roads as tractors.
Core Trailer Inspection Items
- Breakaway system and emergency cable
- Brake operation and adjustment
- Tire tread, sidewalls, and wheel hardware
- Floor, crossmembers, and frame condition
- Lights, wiring harness, and 7-way plug
Make Trailer Inspections Part of PM
Build trailers into your PM schedule instead of waiting for annual inspections or breakdowns.
