Wheel bearings When to repack

Is repacking based on miles or time. I repacked them about a year ago and we have only traveled about 3000 miles this year. Just trying to give my back a break if possible.

Thanks

Personally, I ran 10 years and about 10k miles before repacking. I'd hit my EZ-Lubes with a half-dozen shots of grease every year and would check for play at the same time. I had them re-done last year, just on general principle and the shop said I had no leaking grease and seals and bearings still looked good, with very little play. Had the brakes adjusted at the same time, too. YMMV...
