Trailer tents are a great way to enjoy life outdoors while spending time with your family, but they don't always seem like a cup of tea when it comes to a holiday. It is often helpful to delve into the second-hand market before spending a lot of money to see if camping is right for you and your family. Below is a checklist of tips that can be helpful when buying a second hand trailer tent;
o Do not be afraid to bring your interlocutor with you for advice and moral support, especially if you are new to the campsite as a whole.
o Look at the rusty body and wet spots in the main body of the trailer.
o Check hinges and poles for deformation and damage.
o Check internal and external electrics. If necessary, connect the trailer to your vehicle for power.
o Check all the elements of the winding for the roof, as they are complex and therefore expensive to repair.
o Check tires for road safety, road safety is paramount.
o Check if the kitchen unit is turned on or not. Light the burners for yourself to check if they are working or not.
o Ask the owner to build the device and its awning. After checking, find signs of rotting or mold on the awning, especially where the canvas meets the base unit or around the poles.
When you inspect the trailer tent, ask the owner about any spare parts or other accessories they may own and want to get rid of such as water containers, gas cylinders, chemical toilets and other camping equipment, as you can choose to conclude a deal.
