Backing up a TT

Any tips or tricks to backing up a travel trailer? I have a 21ft TT. TY
  • Practice practice go find a parking lot walmart,local school,and practice you can use anything, empty milk jugs,2 liter bottles.Some find it easier to hold the steering wheel at 6 clock,good luck and don't give up it gets easier.
  • >Practice

    >Put your hand on the bottom of the steering wheel and turn that hand the way you want your trailer to go.

    >back slowly
  • Get some empty plastic trash cans too and make lanes to practice as well.
  • Practice, practice, practice. A big open empty parking lot helps.
    I was a truck driver for a while and then went boating and camping on the weekends. It really confused me for a while if I tried to back-up WITHOUT a trailer.
