personaly i would say buy a decent size one as i found the small one very twichy. something like this trailer

But take into consideration storing in and weather you would use it for any other purposses.

For me i ended up with a trailer that can take 8X4 sheets of timber as that what i require for my work.

I used a brenderup 1150s and also had roof bx on top of it with the light bulky sleeping stuff. This trailer was great to tow. (It is for sale on this website classifieds now.)
