I have a 6.5 x 10 skid house. Looking for ideas on how everyone is loading/unloading quickly to make transporting it easier between lakes. Currently takes me 30 minutes to load and tie down. Unloading is an easy as I currently have a 22’ flatbed and winch the skid house in and back my 4 wheeler up to it, pull forward drop the hitch and drive off. Need an easier idea for loading. Interested in possibly a bigger trailer and a side by side.
Front winch on trailer. Winch it right up.
Depending on what your trailer flooring is it helps to have plastic down on both the skid and the flooring. I have a 80″ wide x 13′ long x 1200lb aluminum skid house that I can physically push on the trailer by hand. You won’t move it uphill but you could push it off and side to side if you wish. Otherwise a front winch like Bearcat had mentioned is a fairly simple add on. I also drive mine on and back it off while hitched up with my sxs but I have a 24′ trailer and use every available ” of it.
I do have a winch up front and currently winch it up backwards so I can just hook up and pull it off but it takes a while ti do all of that. I’m leaning towards a big trailer curious how it is backing it off while connected?
Maybe post a pic of your setup. Might help getting the creative juices flowing.
The last thing I think of for a skid house is quick and easy…
