Ensure that the [trailer is equipped with robust braking](https://muscletrailers.com.au/trailer-brake-drums/) systems, including both service brakes and breakaway systems, which are crucial in emergency situations.

Lastly, it is important to ensure that load securing equipment, such as tie-down straps and hooks, are included and used effectively to prevent shifting during transit.
