Travel Trailer Information

A travel trailer is a recreational vehicle that is towed by a hitch attached to your car or truck. Travel trailers can be a variety of sizes; they can accommodate a weekend trip or a multi-week vacation. Many people even live and travel in travel trailers year-round.
  1. Benefits

    • Vacationing with a travel trailer is economical, according to Travel Trailer Center. In addition, there are no worries about lost luggage or flight delays. Recreational vehicle (RV) parks are located throughout the United States, providing a wide variety of vacation destinations.

    Amenities

    • According to RV.net, many travel trailers have lots of the comforts of home; some are fully equipped, including a kitchen.

    Flexibility

    • The flexibility of being able to unhook your vehicle from the trailer allows you to drive around in your tow vehicle and explore the area where you are vacationing, according to RV.net.

    Fifth-Wheel

    • RV.net indicates that a fifth-wheel trailer attaches to a tow vehicle (generally a pickup truck) with a hitch that is secured to the center of the bed of the truck. The fifth-wheel hitch gives the pickup-and-trailer combination a better ride and allows the pickup to pull a heavier trailer. These larger travel trailers offer more luxurious accommodations.

    Safety

    • The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends taking precautions in a travel trailer. FEMA provides safety tips for stove and propane use, security in RV parks, and fire prevention measures.
