Default Transporting ATV Trailer

Hi, SO I decided to buy an ATV trailer. I'm just not sure how to transport it. Do I need a really long trailer to carry the atv and trailer now? Or is there some other trick you use, like flipping the atv trailer upside down over hte atv? Any help would be appreciated.

You can try standing it on end if there's enough room on a shorter trailer.

I guess there would be room but the trailer hitch will be sticking up about 12ft that might get caught on wires.

Equinox ATV Trailers - The Explorer XL4

Just the box is 7ft long plus the tongue, and the bed of the trailer it's on is already 2ft off the ground.

THATS a nice trailer! and now that I see it and hear the specs... yeah I'm guessing 12ft would be close... I would just lay it ontop of your atv upsidedown and tie it down... Or in your truck bed? or you could modify the tongue to make it detachable That's pretty simple to do.

That trailer's a couple of feet longer than I expected. No wonder you don't want to stand it up. I think Alex got it right.
