The first step to take before engaging your vehicle's towing system is to take some time to familiarize yourself with the manufacturer's owner manual to verify towing capacity and tongue weight. Knowing this information is imperative to ensuring a safe ride.

Before any towing trip, it is critical to perform a safety inspection on all of the vehicle's towing equipment to confirm that all components are in working order and are properly secured. It is especially imperative to verify that the trailer lights are connected and are in working order. Using towing mirrors will also ensure a safer ride.

When packing the load, it is important to verify that the weight is evenly distributed. It is recommended to load the heaviest items first.
