Question:
Can anyone offer info on converting a standard utility trailer into a
covered trailer for carrying camping or works tools etc. We are thinking
about buying a 4 by 8 foot utility trailer with a flat deck, 14 inch wheels,
and putting a goos storage box on it, with rear doors, and a height of 60
inches.... has anyone done this, or are using one while van or auto
camping... any scout groups use one of these,,, any information would be
appreciated.
Answer:
-I purchased a used utility trailer that has the tools boxes taking up
the sides of the trailer. You know, like the kind you see on phone &
gas company trucks. If you get any storage box on yours, make sure it
can be locked up and not removable. When I get mine done it will have
almost the whole nine yards- lots of locked storage, a 45 gallon water
tank, etc.
-I made one once when I had a welding business. It was for our Scout group.
They are great. A place for everything, easy to keep organized. We pulled it
with a Suburban, so it made much more room in the vehicle. We turned lots of
heads and got lots of compliments on it. You can do an awful lot with one
