Bud,
Unless your tow vehicle is from the 60s or 70s it has sealed bearings that never need to be serviced. You drive them to failure.
Your RV does not have sealed bearings. If you have disk brakes, with fewer issues than drum brakes, you can likely go 2-3 years between packing bearings. The biggest driver for annual service is inspecting the brakes.
