What You’ll Need to Strap a Car to a Trailer

✅ Heavy-Duty Ratchet Straps with Axle Sleeves (if using frame tie-downs)
✅ Secure Anchor Points (D-rings, E-Track, L-Track)
✅ Optional: Wheel chocks or trailer stops for added alignment

How to Secure Your Car the Right Way

Load the Car

Center on trailer, slightly forward of axle

Secure the Front Wheels

Option A: Over-the-Wheel Strap Method
Option B: Axle/Frame Tie-Down (with caution)

Repeat at Rear

Mirror the method used in front

Final Safety Check

Confirm strap angles, tension, and hook position

Avoid These Costly Tie-Down Errors

❌ Over-compressing suspension
❌ Hooking to weak frame parts
❌ Using worn or low-quality straps
❌ Wrapping around body panels or bumpers

Trust Note:
“A single mistake can lead to thousands in damage. Don’t take chances with inferior gear or bad technique.”
