I have a 6x12' tandem 10k dump trailer with 24 inch sides, and an 18' tandem 14k tilt/equipment trailer, both weigh about 3k.
I live in the hurricane prone gulf coast. Both trailers are under a carport and the wheels remain chocked, but do they need to be strapped to the ground, or just have the tongue lowered when a hurricane is approaching? I'm only finding info on securing travel trailers and RVs, nothing on utility type trailers.
I realize nothing is going to stop tornado damage, just looking for hurricane wind protection up to 140mph or so.
