I did mine at a busy RV repair location that also does RV sales. Went by and talked to them about an appointment, they told me one was not necessary.
When I came in, the inspection qualified tech took a short break from the repair he was doing on a Class A, checked my lights worked, my tires for excessive wear and had me pull forward and stop with the trailer brakes. Then completed the paperwork - all in less than 10 minutes.
I asked why they stop work for an inspection, and was told that in order to be able to inspect new trailers and motorhomes which come into Texas, they have to offer annual inspections. They could lose their inspection station license if they don't accommodate annual inspections, and for trailers those are very simple.
