You don't know this. It's not specifically covered in the rules, but <G10> says:

ROBOT Starting Positions – Prior to the MATCH, each TEAM negotiates within their ALLIANCE to select one of the three LAUNCH PADS of the ALLIANCE. Each ROBOT is then HITCHED to the TRAILER assigned to the selected LAUNCH PAD. The ROBOT and TRAILER are then placed entirely within the LAUNCH PAD, and positioned such that the TRAILER is in contact with the AIRLOCK or guard rail (as appropriate).

Which implies that TRAILERS are assigned to LAUNCH PADS, whether there's a robot or not. Which means, there'd be 3 TRAILERS, even if there were only 2 ROBOTS. There is definitely a Q&A question here, just to be certain, but I'm pretty sure the TRAILERS stay. If they didn't, why would you bother putting any robots out? No robots = no goals to be scored in. As long as your opponent was foolish enough to field a robot, you'd only have to land a single moon rock to win the match.
