Generally 4-strokes have a recommendation to NOT carry them standing up. I believe the reason is that oil could get past the piston. I'd also drain the gas from the tank so it doesn't leak. I've seen the mess that makes. I've seen many people transport them nose up and reported no problems, but YMMV.

which model hf trailer did u get? the heavy duty 1800 pounder? i have the 1450 and would be afraid to throw 2 quads on it, just too much weight for the tongue, i seen the tongue collapse on the 1450 from overloadin them, the are quite thin, i wouldn't do it unless u strengthen the trailer tongue
