This is my first time taking my Cub 23TT back to the dealer for a little warranty work, my question is should I unpack the entire trailer to prevent anything from getting stolen or do most people leave it all packed?

After reading the stolen kayak post, I think I will unpack, but still interested in hearing what everyone does.

We have never taken anything out of the TT.

I guess it depends on how much you trust your dealer.

We have never had anything taken. The again I have purchased 3 TT's over time there. I am a pretty good customer. Funny thing I was never looking to buy when I bought.

Happy Camping

Just don't leave any "valubles" in it. Cameras, generator, laptop, would be a no. Food, cloths, flip flops, pots and pans, would be a yes.

Padlin has it right on the nose. In general, nothing in our trailer has any value, so we leave it all in there when the trailer goes in for service. After all, the HTT is never secured unless it is closed up. Our son has climbed in by unsnapping a tent end - the door lock is pretty meaningless ;-)

Happy Camping!

Even the dealership management don't know everything about their employees, and who knows who's snooping around the place late at night. Don't leave anything in that you'll miss if it is gone.

All men over age 50 should get an annual PSA blood test. Mine had a low reading, but the yearly jump was significant. The biopsy showed cancer just entering the aggressive stage. Dr. Hackenslash removed it.

I use a very reliable dealer and never thought of unloading it when leaving it. One time, we were driving home from camping, called them on the cell and made arrangements to leave it there on our way home. We emptied the fridge and left everything else!

Never would have thought of removing anything before service. But then again, we leave the keys in our car and truck at night. I quess this is one advantage of living in a small town.
