Thanks dabears and good question! The trailer axles are slightly off centre to the rear of the trailer so as when loaded the weight on the hitch (nose weight) is positive but most off the weight is carried by the trailer and not on the rear of the towing vehicle. Hope this makes sense

Just for you Snochaser and thanks for the coments, the whiskey box weighs 2kg (4.4lbs in old money)

Thanks for looking
