How to Use This Template
This checklist covers a full pre-journey and pre-trade inspection of your van, trailer, or converted vehicle. It includes sections for tyres and brakes, lights and signals, fluid levels, gas system and connections, electrical hookups, generator checks, serving hatch and equipment, and general bodywork.
Do a quick version before every journey and a thorough version weekly. The gas system checks are particularly important — connections, hoses, regulators, and flame failure devices should all be inspected regularly. Note any issues and the date you addressed them.
This isn't just good practice — it's a legal requirement under road safety law, and many event organisers and local authorities want evidence of vehicle checks. Keep completed checklists for at least 12 months. They also support your insurance position if anything goes wrong.
