Title: Gear storage and Hunting Trailers
Post by: jboettner on December 13, 2020, 01:43:20 PM: Looking to get some ideas on hunting gear trailers whether they are enclosed or not, for hauling camp and gear to and from your spots. Post some pics of your setups that help you avoid playing Tetris with your truck beds.

I use a open box 10 x 5 trailer with drop gate. 24 inch sides. I have thought of a closed box trailer but for me the trailer has to serve many roles. Hauling camp couple times a year is just one.
After camp is up it hauls water,straw,firewood, and game. At home it is always on the road for some project.

Get a trailer with the lights up or very protected. Drop gate is golden.

Here mine.

Most of my gear has been put in totes on wheels. Grab the tote up the ramp and go.
A tote for dry food,kitchen needs, cook shack and each tent has its own tote.

Open box you can do a lot more with it.

I am sure I can find a waterproof cover with bungees or something also if necessary. Nice setup.
