Winter Worries? Know How to Properly Store Your Teardrop Trailer for the Winter
The teardrop trailer has become your new buddy. During this Covid-19 situation, camping or self-drive holidays is undoubtedly one of the best choices for you. A lot of people have used Australian made teardrop vans from Wotpods for their holidays or camping trips this year. Teardrops from Wotpods are comfortable, affordable, durable and offer excellent service. But if you want to ensure that your teardrop camper lasts for a long time without any problem, you should store it properly. Often teardrops get damaged because people incorrectly keep them. Here are some tips for maintaining a teardrop trailer properly for the winter season-

Check if the exterior is in good condition

The first thing you need to do is to prepare the exterior body of the trailer for storing it during winters. The best way is to go for a detailed inspection of the whole exterior portion of your beloved trailer. It will help you to find the problem areas. You should always try to repair if there is a problem and then store the teardrop. Holes or dents and broken seals can be fatal for your trailer as water and ice can seep through the gaps and damage the trailer. So, ensure that the trailer is in the right condition. If your camper requires any repair, you can get it done for extra safety.
Choose a proper location

The next important factor is location. Although teardrop trailers take very less space, they should be stored properly to prevent any kind of damage. It is best if you park the trailer inside your garage or a shaded area within your property. If there is no such space available in your home, you need to find a place that is sheltered and can protect your trailer from ice storm or winds. Try to cover the trailer with a cover if you are parking it in an open place inside your property.

Cover it up

As it has been said before, you should always cover your teardrop trailer even though you are storing it inside your garage. A unique weather cover for winter offers a lot of benefits. It protects the trailer exterior and also prevents wind or ice from damaging it. So, try to buy a good quality cover for some added security.

Take care of the batteries

The batteries are an essential part of your teardrop trailer. It is often the main thing that power up your camper. Since you will not use it for a long time, the best way is to separate the battery from the trailer and store it separately at a secured place. Batteries lose their charge in winter due to the cold climate. So, try to fully charge the battery and then store it in a dark and dry place away from water or moisture. Please try to check the charge.

Here are the tips that can help you to store your teardrop camper safely during the winters. You can keep the Wotpods trailer rocking and ensure it does not get damaged during the long winter season.
