I was curious, when do you usually wash your trailer? Do you do it before you leave for a trip so you have a clean trailer while camping, or do you wash it after the trip to get all the bugs and stuff off. Or Both? It seems strange to wash it just before you store your trailer since it does get dirty while sitting there.
Thanks
Mike

I try to keep it clean, meaning that if it get bugs or whatever on it I'll wash it after a trip. Just be carefull if you use a power sprayer, I peeled a decal off in about a half second.

Both, want it clean while in use and the bugs seem to get harder to get off the longer they are on there.

Before and after here too. It sits uncovered so I wash it a few days before we leave then after we get home if there's any bugs or grime on it.

I wash my trailer just before we leave. I always wash the front cap to get rid of the bugs every time we arrive at a new CG and when we arrive at home. I always wax the front cap before leaving on a trip to make the bug removal easier.

I do as Duck does... before / wash the front of bugs when arriving / and when we get home... use one of those brushes on the extened handle, take a few minutes.
