Mileage Maintenance: Leave it to the Experts
For customers who select the mileage option, Premier will manage all maintenance behind the scenes so it's one less thing to worry about. Receive alerts directly to your client dashboard when each of your trailers is due for regular inspection. Simply bring the trailers to a Premier location and we'll perform the following maintenance tasks:
- Annual FHWA inspection
- Replace any tires and brakes due to normal wear

RoadCARE maintenance is included. For a small fee, we can also schedule a vendor to come to your facility and perform all of the maintenance procedures listed above, wherever you are.

Ensure every journey is smooth riding. Our Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) provides coverage for any physical damage to leased trailers without the added hassle of scheduling and unscheduling insurance for each rental. Claims are never reported to your insurance provider.
What is the Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) ?
Premier offers the Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) service to its customers to cover the trailer in the event of a loss or damage from a covered peril. For companies that schedule LDW, this service provides the physical damage coverage you need without having to schedule and unschedule insurance for each rental. Claims are never reported to your insurance provider.
In the event of a casualty, trailer values are always covered in full. In the event of a claim due to fleet damage, rental charges stop when the deductible is paid. We offer competitive rates and reasonable deductibles and stop charges as soon as rental or lease is terminated.
What does the Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) cover?

- Damage that is the result of fire, hail, wind or tornado
- Theft of trailer (police report required)
- Recovery of the unit, towing and storage — $5,000 maximum
