Locks on the trailer, chain and lock trailer to car but I would say its rare for a small trailer to be unhitched and stolen, backing up to a wall works as well

Locks on everything? I never bothered with pulling a wheel.
Just got matching locks for a new trailer from PackLock. Pretty decent looking/feeling. Lock drawbar to tow vehicle, and the coupler latch on the trailer. Puck locks on the rear and side doors. Stay in decent areas. Someone really wants in, they can cut through a trailer easily. They can also unbolt a coupler. |

Dontt forget to put a lock on the coupler and trailer hitch
If it has a rear cargo door then back up against a utility or light pole Get a room where you can see the trailer from Put solar powered stick on motion lights on the trailer Call the local PD where you are staying and ask them to do a drive by patrol a couple times Put a bio-hazard decal on the trailer |

Is it a big enough trailer that you can stick a Korean on it's roof?

I have traveled all over the country pulling a job trailer. All cargo trailers have a place for a padlock on the door. You can work a padlock into one of the safety chains if really worried about that. Avoid hotels in the ghetto and you'll be fine. Even in the ghetto you are still going to be fine most of the time.

One of the Harbor Freight driveway/motion alarms can be useful.

Pick up a couple Biohazard and Infectious Substance placards and slap them on at night; do not leave them on while moving.

The big locks that look like a hockey puck and back up into something to block the door.

Gotta find a way to work it onto the trailer but you could try one of those cable locks that also have an alarm on them.
Just for the alarm's sake of it all. |

Quote HistoryThere are a lot of really good hardened steel puck locks that can't be bolt cutter-ed off. |

There was one parked in front of our business that had a coupler lock, heavy hasps on the doors, and a bar that ran through both wheels with locks on both ends.
It still got stolen. Sleep in the truck in a walmart lot or trucker lot where there is less crime than a shitty motel maybe? |

My cousin stayed at a hotel in The Woodlands TX for $200+/night. (It’s hard to get less shitty than the Woodlands.) His trailer was broken into and his tools were stolen. |

Cheap driveway alarm put the sensor in the trailer and the receiver in your hotel room. Carry a gun and a big spotlight.
