The Covered Wagon 5 x 8 Enclosed Cargo Trailer is a compact, secure, and highly mobile solution for transporting tools, supplies, and sensitive goods. It features a 5-foot wide by 8-foot long interior cargo space, enclosed by durable aluminum panels with a sleek red and silver exterior finish. The trailer rides on a single 3,500 lb-rated axle, fitted with 15-inch radial tires and white mod wheels for smooth towing. The front end includes a diamond plate stone guard for added protection against road debris, while the 2-inch coupler, jack stand, and safety chains ensure secure hitching. Inside, the trailer offers plywood-lined walls and floor, ready for shelving, tie-downs, or custom storage solutions. The rear swing door provides easy access, and the roof is sealed and vented to prevent moisture buildup. This trailer is ideal for mobile vendors, tradespeople, and small business owners needing a weatherproof, lockable transport unit.
To maintain this enclosed trailer in top condition, regular care is essential. Begin by inspecting the roof seams and door seals monthly to prevent water intrusion—especially during Eldoret’s rainy seasons. Lubricate the door hinges, latch mechanisms, and jack stand threads every few weeks to ensure smooth operation. Check tire pressure weekly, and rotate tires every 5,000 km to promote even wear. Grease the wheel bearings bi-annually or after long-distance hauls to prevent friction damage. After transporting dusty or corrosive materials, clean the interior walls and floor thoroughly, and sweep out debris to avoid buildup. Touch up any exterior scratches or chipped paint promptly to maintain rust resistance. For long-term storage, park the trailer on level ground, elevate the tongue, and use a weatherproof cover to protect against UV exposure and moisture.
