Are Trailerstead RV tools free?

Do I need an account to use the RV checklists?
No. Trailerstead is local-first, so you can start with a trailer profile and save core progress in your browser. Optional cloud sync is separate.
What is the best RV checklist to start with?
Before a trip, start with the RV Trip Checklist. At the campsite, use the Campsite Setup & Departure Checklist. For storage season, use the Winterizing Checklist and Seasonal Maintenance tools.
Can I track RV maintenance too?
Yes. The free Maintenance Log records service dates, work completed, costs, notes and optional next-due dates alongside the seasonal checklists.
