Forgive the stupid question, but why not just buy the kit from Harbor Freight and put it together? It took me a couple of days including the trip to Home Depot for the plywood, plastic tool box and misc hardware.

I am not mechanically inclined to put it together.
I want something that is ready to go.

Go to Northern Tool or Tractor Supply. They have a fully assembled (welded construction) 4ft x 6ft trailer for $350. That is what I use. You'll have room for a big tool bin. Then space for 1 set of wheels stacked flat or 2 sets standing on their treads. You'll also have room on the side to stash a 10x10 easy up, folding chair, air bottle, etc...

Only assembly required is for you to bolt the tool bin to the trailer and put your license plate on. Too easy. I'm just lazy and won't assemble one of those HF trailers.

Yep that would be the one I have. It used to be that only Tractor Supply was carrying them. Now the new Northern Tool that just opened has them. The older local stores don't have room for them.

Excellent trailer if you would prefer more room than the 4 x 3.5 HF trailers.

It has a heavy mesh floor. But I bought those garage floor pad tiles that look like jigsaw peices. Put 6 of them in the trailer and they fit perfect. Rims don't get scratched and beaten up since I transport them flat and stacked 2 high.
