1. Clean Your Car

Face it, no one likes a messy car- especially if you’re cooped up in it for hours! Take the time to give your car a thorough clean-out before you start loading it up! Everyone will thank you.

2. Get Your Vehicle Inspected

It may feel like a pain , but it’s really important to get your car serviced before you head out. Schedule an appointment with our service and repair team and we will get you road ready!

3. Create the perfect playlist

This one is important. Take the time to dig through your music and put together an awesome playlist for the trip. Great music makes everything better and road trips are no exception.

4. Pick Some Games

When you’re travelling long distances in the car, there’s always the danger the driver could become a little tired and lose focus over time. Aside from taking regular rests and switching up the driving responsibilities, playing trivia games can help you stay alert. Do a little research before you set off and find some fun games you can play in the car (safely) and put together your own general knowledge quiz.

5. Have an Emergency Kit

Accidents and emergencies happen to everyone. It’s better to be prepared than not. Make sure you have a first-aid kit and a few basic tools, like a screwdriver, duct tape and zip ties.

6. Snacks on Snacks on Snacks

Snacks are an integral part of any successful road trip. You don’t want to be stopping every couple of hours for more food because it’s time consuming and expensive. Make sure you do some snack shopping before hand!

7. Get some cash

Make sure you have a bit of cash on you, just in case. You never know when you could get stranded in the middle of absolute nowhere with no way to access your money!
