Well, I've been searching and thinking about the trailer box question for a couple of weeks.

I bought and returned a Rubbermaid "ActionPacker," for although it was of good dimension, it was just too hideous to contemplate pulling behind a gentleman's machine like the '60 Raleigh Sports with Full Chaincase.

The wicker and surplus [aluminum] trunk ideas are excellent, but preliminary research suggests that finding the right size at the right price could take a while.

In the spirit of "reduce, reuse, recycle," I'm strongly thinking about just staying with the cardboard box and use it until it wears out, then get another one. It doesn't rain much here, so a strong box ought to last many months. The concept has a strong whiff of homelessness about it, but I must say, aesthetically, it's vastly superior to the aforementioned Rubbermaid montstrosity.

All this thought into a box for my trailer. And to think, I'm not even retired.

Regards,

Mark
