  How to Use the 5.5' x 10' Carry-On Utility Trailer

  This versatile 5.5’ x 10’ utility trailer is great for hauling furniture, appliances, lawn equipment, trash, small construction materials, and more. Here’s how to use it safely and effectively:

  
  

  ✅ Step 1: Hook Up the Trailer

  • Ensure your tow vehicle has a 2” ball hitch and a working 4-way flat plug for lights.
  • Back your vehicle up slowly and lower the trailer coupler onto the hitch ball.
  • Lock the coupler and secure the safety chains in a crisscross pattern.
  • Plug in the light connector and check that brake lights and turn signals work properly.

  
  

  ✅ Step 2: Load Your Items

  • Distribute weight evenly from front to back and side to side.
  • Place heavier items over the axle(center of the trailer).
  • Use ratchet straps or tie-downs to secure your load to the D-rings or railings.
  • Avoid stacking too high—stay below the trailer’s side rail height.

  
  

  ✅ Step 3: Drive with Caution

  • Drive below the speed limit(especially on curves and hills).
  • Allow extra stopping distance—trailers add weight!
  • Take wide turns and avoid sudden lane changes.

  
  

  ✅ Step 4: Unload Safely

  • Park on level ground.
  • Use ramps (if available) for heavy wheeled items.
  • Remove all straps before unloading.

  
  

  Important Tips:

  • Max load capacity: Approx. 1,500–2,000 lbs (check sticker for exact rating).
  • Make sure your vehicle can handle the load.
  • Do not overload the trailer or tow over capacity.
  • We are not responsible for your vehicle.
