well due to living in a terraced house with permit parking at the front and no rear access we had hoped to bring trailer home, drag it through the house and sort out what was going in it ( this is its first outing) but just measured it and we can't get it through the font door unless we take the wheels off!
It currently being stored in OH warehouse so will pick it up thurs day before we leave, fill up and take back to warehouse to go and collect early hours sat.
We live in a semi but have the same problem as our side access isn't wide enough. We take the wheels off our trailer and take it down the passageway down the side or through the house and out the French doors. Security is better with the wheels off anyway as we don't have anywhere to store ours so it's stands up locked to the ladders and drain pipe! The wheels are kept locked away so trailer would be pretty useless to anyone. Must be great to be able to keep stuff in the trailer, we have to unpack ours and lug everything up to the loft as we don't have a garage.
We pack on the morning of departure and unpack on the day we get back!

We're hoping to get a trailer before our first trip next year....the plan is that it will live in the garage, with the lid on and we'll store the tent, carpet, footprint, cooker, kitchen box, air beds, electrics etc etc in it all year round. Anything such as sleeping bags, blankets etc will be stored inside and put in the car boot each trip along with clothes, toys etc.
