Maybe it is a bunch of very used and abused motorcycle parts, and couple of handlebar sets tossed in as well. Smiles, MH

A rolling bike shop. You've taken on a contract with the local police and travel precinct to precinct maintaining their fleet.
I say this because my mechanic/mentor did exactly that for the Toronto force in exactly that size of trailer. He towed his with a diesel Toyota Land Cruiser.

If that's the case, then I hope @merziac has good insurance that would cover that trailer, a hitch lock, and an Apple Airtag or something similar hidden somewhere within. I am sure he has that covered but I would be paranoid putting all my favorite things inside a box with wheels.
Never say never, of course.

I got the doughnut right?
Two doughnuts and 6 empty 7-Eleven coffee cups? Beef Stew instead of the chicken? A twinkie from 1973?
Dibs on the Twinkie...

The embarrassing thing is the fact that I had to purchase said temporary unit because I have over-flowed any and all storage in my garage...

And the garage, basement, big shed, huge patio, part of the attic, the other part will be overun when we finally get done with the wiring for the years long kitchen remodel, going to have to floor it for the amount that needs to go up there now. Going to have to break down a lot of bikes that shouldn't be broken down, they may never recover.
Here's a good idea how bad it is, the tool box is over 12 1/2 feet long, 6+ft. high and 3ft. deep, barely holds its own against the tide at its back.
I do manage to keep a path clear for the two riders and work on small projects on the steps into the house when necessary, the bike shop is in the basement.

I think the old ratty Bianchi is the problem...hee hee.
I live in the lowcountry so no basements possible...that would be the ultimate in perfect. One car garage. Once I clear the back yard out for a working shed, perhaps.
...Or maybe, I will just N-1 until just the "not from my cold dead hands will they be released" bikes are left.

Merziac,
There seems to be a renewed interest in the Matco boxes here, I think because we can stand impact socket straight up in the top drawer. And the Ball Bearing drawers help in opening and closing the drawers. I won't get into a shop full of tool boxes debate as I have too many here in the shop. The War Department is gonna have a huge tool sale when I'm gone. You should watch for the notice of my demise. Smiles, MH

I wish your better half good luck when you depart, that big Matco is an albatross at this point.
Tried to sell it several times and couldn't give it away which I'm not going to do, maybe mine will bury me in it.
