Here are a few things to keep in mind when caring for your SPACE Trailer.

Maintenance

Upkeep is essential for the safety of any trip. Luckily with our storable trailer, maintenance is quick and painless, which means you can stress less and enjoy more adventures. Here is a short list of things to check on your storable trailer before or during a trip.
  • Always check your tire pressure and taillights.
  • Yearly, lug nuts should be tightened, and the bearings lubricated.
These may seem like small things but simple checks on your SPACE Trailer can really save you a lot of stress, time, and money down the road.

Cleaning

Our storable trailer is made of a galvanized steel frame, powder-coated box steel panels, and poly-coated Marine-grade plywood for the bed. To ensure your new SPACE Trailer maintains its new glow it is important to use cleaners that do not erode those protective coatings. While common contaminants like oil, grease, and moisture may cause stains if left unchecked, cleaners like Comet, Clorox, or Simple Green can remove contaminants from the storable trailer without affecting the finish.

Storage

When you put away your storable trailer, SPACE Trailers have the unique benefit of vertical storage. This unique method of trailer storage opens up more floor space for other items in your garage. When storing your SPACE trailer, level ground is very important. Solid flat ground will secure the trailer in its place and help keep it from moving or falling over.
