I agree with Ulysses (as usual). I had a 4x8 trailer and didn't like it. The cart would barely go on it, and steering it on and off between the side rails was difficult. Also, it had small tires, and I did not have confidence in them. I got a bigger one, 5x10 I think, although it might be a 6x10. It is not so wide as to cause problems. It has full-size tires and wheels that also happen to fit my Jeep, so if I have a flat on the Jeep while towing the trailer, I won't have to use the small emergency spare, I can use the full-size spare off the trailer.

Think about greaing wheel bearings. Look for a trailer that has grease fittings that allow you to grease the bearings with an ordinary grease gun, without removing the wheels.

With the 10' trailer, I have room to mount two large plastic toolboxes on the front, in front of the cart. They are waterproof and hold lots of tools, ammo, bungee cords, etc.

I fastened wheel chocks on the deck just behind the tool boxes, and use ratchet-type cargo straps at all 4 corners of the cart.
