Re: Team Trailer Ideas?
1676 had a trailer donated three years ago, also white. I would guess about 6 x 10, 5 feet tall inside.
A local graphics company, that specialized in truck wraps (adhesive vinyl sheets, printed with whatever and applied professionally to the vehicle) was cajoled by a sponsor who uses their services into donating a wrap job. See the photo.
The handiest thing we have are tie-down D-Rings in the floor and walls, which allow us to use rope to secure whatever's in the trailer. You do not want the load to shift! The trailer walls are not strong enough for one of those 'spreader-bar' type holders you see in pickup trucks or big tractor-trailers. Also the roof is not strong enough to hold any weight.
A light inside the trailer is very handy when packing up after dark, which is typical in winter.
A crank-type front 'wheel' helps when storing the trailer, otherwise you need some kind of holder to keep it level when not attached to a vehicle.
Wheel chocks are indispensable! You need four.
A spare tire is not a bad idea, either.
