You Always leave the screens open at least a bit.  Thats why we have such a large screen in the front and both of the windows with screens as well. These are your primary sources of ventilation.  If you close everything up you will suffocate.  vents are no different. They also have a screen. If you close a vent, you will have the same results .  It's no different then the 3 screens provided.  You must have air flow. Thats why they call them vents. It is short for "Ventilation". The 3 screens are your "vents".  Always make sure you have a proper source of air flow, and never completely close all your screens.

This question should be answered based on where you decide to store your trailer during the winter months. If it's stored in a damp environment, then yes definitely remove it. If it is in a heated garage, there is no need to worry about it. Everyone has a different place they keep their teardrop stored. I leave my mattress inside the trailer all year round. However, My teardrop is stored inside my shop and the shop is temperature controlled all season. When in doubt, pull it out :-)

Here is another question we receive a lot. Should I take out my battery during the winter months ? Well, it really does not depend where you are storing it. If it's inside a garage or outside in the dead of winter. I leave my battery in my boat all year round ( outdoors). I also leave it in my snowmobiles ( outdoors ). The key to a prolonged life of a battery is to trickle charge the battery throughout the season. A low amp trickle charger will keep your battery fully charged at all times. The damage occurs when you let the battery die completely and then try to charge it again in the springtime. It does not matter where a battery is stored, as long as it receives a slow trickle charge. If it did matter, then you should take your car battery inside every night before bedtime. The reason your car battery works all winter is because every time you start your car, your alternator tops up your battery amps. Same idea applies with a teardrop trailer. Take it out of the trailer if you want, but if you don't slowly trickle charge it throughout the season it may still end up dead. The fact of the matter is, If you don't charge a battery, it will die. No matter where you store it. Although, "Cold weather makes it more difficult for an already weakened battery to hold its charge, Storing your battery in a garage during spells of cold weather should keep the battery warmer and, easier to charge, but trickle charging will make it last a lot longer. Keeping your battery fully charged means your battery will have a longer lifespan and use energy more efficiently". More tips can be found at this link here: MTA Most importantly remember this: It is better for your battery to opt for the slow charging method, because A fast charge increases the potential of overcharging your battery and can create permanent damage.

We have been asked many times when our rentals will be available again. As long as we continue to be busy throughout the winter season we will not have time to build any rental units. For now, We have this section available on our forum for existing customers that may decide to rent their own teardrop trailers to the public. Please note: we have no affiliation with these rental units, and any transactions or business conducted with any of these rentals has no relationship with The Teardrop Trailer Inc. This is only a page that will link, update or allow other private teardrop trailer owners to post available rental dates. All agreements are made between the private teardrop trailer owner and the customer and Not between "The Teardrop Trailer Inc". This is only a platform for renters to meet teardrop owners.

Here's another big one. If you decide to take your little teardrop south for the winter and you end up driving on our salty roadways, wash it off before you store it. Salt is deadly on any surface, including aluminum if left over the wintertime. It will pit the aluminum. It can be polished back to a new look again, but it is a lot of unnecessary elbow grease, when all you needed to do in the first place was wash off the salt after a long road trip.

After a few years of building our teardrop trailers, we have realized that some people do not know how to properly care for, and maintain their new little campers, So we are going to create a list of ways to avoid damaging it, and suggest ways to properly maintain and store them... This will be an ongoing list of hints and tips, and outright do's and don't s. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the subject. So here we go. First and foremost. If you are not using your trailer and plan on leaving it outside during the winter months, Cover it. That's right, Cover it. Especially if it's a woody. Although these trailers can be used anytime of year, they are primarily made for 3 season camping. If you want to use your trailer in the winter time, you should have checker plate fenders and checker plate under carriage. If you want to avoid rusting the frame you should also get the frame galvanized. We can galvanize the frames, but they take 6 to 8 weeks to get dipped. That means we can only accept orders for galvanized frames between October and February. Even with all these precautions, you still need to cover your trailer when not in use. People cover their boats, snowmobiles,motorcycles, RV's and yes, even their classic cars. One thing people need to remember is that our trailers are made of wood, steel and aluminum. Wood expands and contracts, aluminum and steel do not, which means in the winter months an uncovered trailer that has expanding or contracting wood with temperature changes can allow ice to penetrate the hinges and door frames. This will eventually melt in the spring and if left unattended and neglected will cause mold. So if you want to keep your trailer looking like new, cover it when not in use. Think of it as the same as a classic car and it will last for many years to come. Leave it exposed to the elements, and you will have a costly restoration repair bill, that we can easily help you with.

Not only do they get in the way for a semi flexible solar panel, obstruct the wind flow for an aerodynamically favorable roof, They leak. We install internal fans and have screens on our doors. We also have a pass through screen between the bedroom and kitchen, and best of all we don't put a big hole in the roof for a fantastic fan. Last thing I want over my head on a major rain storm, is a leak. Want more proof ?

I went through some of my older videos that I totally forgot about, Back when I originally started building in my back yard. If you want to know how to make your teardrop shine, check out my old archived video entitled Polished Aluminum rear galley tear drop Trailer. I can literally see my face in the back of the galley door. Check it out... ( Note: this was the second or third trailer I ever built, We have made major improvements to our trailers since this video with over 300 trailers built to date. We also now have a 3000 sq ft shop, and no longer build in the back yard. This video is just a testimonial to how well you can polish your trailer, with a little elbow grease and a polishing kit from Princess Auto or Harbour Freight.

This is where it all began. We already had our first teardrop trailer built in the spring of 2014. Dec 8 2014, I didn't have any orders yet, But I really wanted to get this business off the ground, So I started TeardropTV. Interviewing other Builders across the USA, and learning from them and their techniques of building. Well the show never really took off, but sales did. We have built and sold over 300 trailers for customers across North America, and this is the very first video I produced on green screen ( Very amateur ) in my kitchen, and Mandy sitting in the living room as my number one supporter. I look back now and laugh. We truly started from humble beginnings, But with a lot of hard work and determination we have branded a product that can be seen at local campsites across Canada and The USA. And it all began with my first video. Enjoy...
