Hello,
I'm am a brand new camper owner and I've never personally towed anything either. I pick up my Shasta from the garage this week and we'll have to tow it about half an hour to home. I want to make sure I'm not missing anything for a safe and legal trip. I am in PA.
Help? Please don't feel that any suggestions are "too obvious".
The garage towed it from the camper dealership across the street.
When I pick it up from the garage it will have new tires and packed bearings. They checked the brakes and said they looked "like new". (Camper last used in 96 from litter left in it)
I have purchased mirror extenders and stick on tow lights (the electical is not working)
Taked my dad into towing it home with his vehicle. He's familiar with towing his trailer loaded with scrap and such.
We'll be followed by another vehicle and go slow.
There is a safety chain.
Trailer dealership will have the plates and title ready for me when I pick it up.
What am I missing?
Do I need a registration sticker for a camper?
What else do I need for a legal trip home?
Tammy
