Brenda, when you said you moved so many times I was figuring that your dad was with the railroad, we moved an average of 7 months for the 15 years I was with the railroad, I should have gotten a big truck to move with, paid for enough u-hauls to have bought one LOL

I originally wanted a 18 to 24 foot mobile shop,, but the better half said no. Its not like I want to keep everything,(well I do,lol). The deal is, I can drive for long hours and she can't, which means if I had the huge trailer she would have to be driving and towing it while I pulled the 5th wheel. So I improvised and got the small trailer for now to tote behind her truck which will be hitched up behind the 5th wheel as a *train, Its a win win situation..

The main RULE to loading a storage trailer is as follows, Pack it tight, and those little small open areas between said packed boxes and totes is to fill them in with small stuff. Remember, pack it tight and some what organized. Start at the front with things you will need later on immediatly, but not thinking about it at the time. Work your way to the back of the trailer keeping it organized and packed tight, utilizing every little space available. When you finally get it all tucked real tight,, close the door, secure the latch,, and then,,,,,,,,, and only then,,,, realize the padlock that locks the latch is indeed at the very front of the trailer, in that small box marked locks and straps and rope,,tucked in the tight corner space.  At this time as you realize your organizing skills, you just leave the latch unlocked,, go in the RV, crack open a cold one or 2 or 5 and say heck with it.    But on the bright side,, You wanted a road trip to the hardware store anyways .  Ahhhhhh,, the silver lining on the gloom cloud.

As Rich said, that is a great addition to your collection, of course you know the think you want will be at the front of the trailer so you will have to unload everything to get to it. LOL

I noticed that while towing it home,,, it could just about slide up into the back of the truck. 

I told better half that I have to much stuff under tarps behind the RV and would be so much easier to keep it inside a trailer.

Hey Lakota, what a nice little addition, looks like you could almost pull that up in a truck bed if you was to have bearing problems or other necessities. Nice find!
