cargo trailer

Hitched storage box

A cargo trailer is an unpowered wheeled container towed behind a vehicle for hauling goods or equipment.

Unlike open utility trailers, cargo trailers are fully enclosed, protecting contents from weather and theft.

They range from small units behind passenger vehicles to large commercial trailers: We rented a cargo trailer for the move.

Also called enclosed trailers.
