The Must-Have Checklist from iCheck TPMS
Whether you’re towing a caravan to the Coromandel, hauling a boat down to Taupō, or moving gear across the country, keeping your tyres in check is one of the most important steps to ensure a safe trip.
At iCheck TPMS New Zealand, we’re proud to help Kiwis tow with confidence. Here's your essential checklist for safer, stress-free towing on New Zealand roads.
✅ Tyre Pressure: The Foundation of Towing Safety
When you’re towing anything heavy, tyre pressure becomes critical. Incorrect pressures can lead to uneven wear, overheating, blowouts, or poor handling, especially on winding or uneven roads.
Before hitting the road:
Check the tyre pressure of both your vehicle and your trailer or caravan
Adjust for the load you’re carrying
Always follow manufacturer recommendations
🎯 Want to make pressure adjustments easy? Our Pro Series Tyre Deflators take the guesswork out:
📡 Real-Time Monitoring for Peace of Mind
Once you're on the road, tyre pressure can change, especially with long drives, elevation changes, or variable loads. That’s why a TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) is a game-changer for towing safety.
It continuously monitors each tyre and alerts you to:
Low pressure
High temperature
Sudden deflation
🛠 We offer systems to suit all towing setups:
Perfect for caravans, trailers, boats, horse floats, and more.
🔧 What Else Should You Check Before Towing?
A few quick checks before you hit the road can save you major headaches:
✅ Tyre condition and tread depth
✅ Trailer lights and brake connections
✅ Spare tyre (inflated and accessible)
✅ Towbar and safety chain secure
✅ Load balanced and tied down properly
And don’t forget an iCheckTPMS Digital Tyre Inflator for reinflating tyres after long journeys or pressure adjustments.
