Abstract

A transportable storage container assembly (20) for transport by a tow vehicle V. The assembly includes a trailer (22) having a center rail (44) with a two-point trailer hitch (24) at the front end and a pivotable single wheel (26) at the rear end. The trailer has a first cross channel (46) adjacent the front end of the rail and a second cross (48) channel adjacent the rear end of the rail. A storage container (32) mounted on the trailer includes bottom support skids (36, 38) at each end that seat in the cross channels and are secured in the channels by casters (40) that are attached to the skids through mounting holes in the cross channels. There is a jack (50) on the bottom of the trailer rail adjacent the midpoint to facilitate the raising of the trailer for attachment to, and disattachment from, the tow vehicle trailer hitch.
