Want To Buy Utility trailer

[OKRuss]

Good day everyone! I'm in need of a single axle utility trailer and thought I'd post here since not finding what I want on CL or FB. We've got a redneck hunting blind without a platform stand. We'd like to set it on a trailer so can be moved around the property, if needed. Don't want/need it elevated. The redneck blind is 6' x 6' outside dimensions.

Ideally, I'd like to find a 6' x 8' trailer so wouldn't have to build any kind of frame under the blind. Realistically, I would settle on a 5' wide knowing it'll need something to raise it over the tires/fenders. The flat floor trailer(without any railing) would be great if the floor is ABOVE the wheel height. I figure will find a 5' x 8' with railing about 18" or so high around the 3 sides. If so, I'll have to cut some angle iron to weld onto the railing on sides in order to make a support for the blind to sit on.

Would be something like this picture just without the platform stand and bottom of blind sitting either on the trailer bed or on a metal support connecting to the sides. Thanks!

Might watch for a junker pop up camper, then clear it off to bed of trailer

Not a bad idea. Appreciated!

Meant to add, if not apparent, I don't need working lights and tires only need to be good enough to get onto a 16' trailer.

I’ve got an old Apache pop up camper that I was going to restore, but I’ll probably never get around to it. I’d be willing to sell it. I can get you some pics of it in the morning, but here’s an example. Mine doesn’t have the upper sides or roof.

I gotta 4x6 trailer that I’ll let go for $380. May not be ideal, but it’s cheap!

Weld up a skid to mount it on. Put a solid anchor on one end to drag it where needed.

If on trailer you will need something on end opposite of jack to steady it.

If ever needed, the skid and blind could be on slid on a trailer to move to new property.

You’re right! I use jack stands to “brace” my portable box stand, and it’s steady as a rock.

I'm liking the skid idea. More thinking to do.

More thinking to do.

I thought I smelled something burning.

Here's what we ended up with. Guess I can close this WTB ad!
