when to do walk through?

1. Schedule the PDI (walk through) days before the delivery date.
2. Do the PDI. Create a hit list of items that need to be fixed.
3. Schedule the delivery.
4. Show up, do a walk through to make sure all items are taken care of.
5. Sign the papers and pay.

What they said.

On a new trailer, it is after you sign.
I would assume it would be the same on a used, or they would be walking through every tom dick and harry that looked at the trailer

It normally is stated in the contract how it will be handled.

When you sign the paperwork and pay for the unit, it belongs to you.
Don't sign or pay until everything is working to your satisfaction.

After.
Fist I would accept the rig. Why buy and pay for something that maybe broken. They want your money that is the only reason they show up. You deserve to get what you pay for, not pay for a rig that needs work. As Marcus would say, Your money Your rules. I would be very cautious about due bills. Some rigs have been in the shop for months waiting on due bill work. They will do paying customers first, they already have your money...why should they hurry.

I wouldn't sign anything until after the walk through and they fixed or gave me a due bill for any deficiencies that I found. Once you sign and pay for the trailer you lose the strong position of holding the thousands of dollars of your money that they want to get their hands on.
