How easy or hard would it be to maneuver a 7064 lb travel trailer with 750 tongue weight on fairly level asphalt?

I have a 21' boat with a 5 liter V-8 which weighs about 5,000 lbs, and I use this dolly to maneuver it into it's spot on the carport. My surface is concrete, not asphalt. With that in mind, I have no problem getting the boat into place. You don't have to worry about tongue weight with that caster wheel unless you are going to try to roll over grass or dirt. The only real difficulty occurs when I have to turn the boat because the trailer has dual axles and the wheels like to go only in a straight line.

If you are 100 lbs and can lift 40 pound bags, then loading them into the cart and pulling it over rough grounds will be easy for you because the tires are great for handling rough grounds. My dad is about your age and he likes the cart too. It's definitely easier than using a wheelbarrow. I hope that answers your question.

It is very sturdy and would take a good deal of force to move when riding. You will be fine.

According to Curt Manufacturing it is rated for 1400 ibs tongue weight and 14,000 lbs trailer weight. I pull a 10,000 lb trailer with no problems.

It is pretty easy to maneuver even with 4-5 kayaks on it. Especially on smooth surfaces. Not so sure about rocky/bumpy surfaces. Can move it loaded through grass OK. weight well balanced on the rear axle.

I bought this for a Yamaha 212X on a tandem trailer. Total weight about 4500lbs. Concrete driveway that is slightly sloped. I can turn the tandem trailer 90 degrees. it takes a bit of effort but it's not too difficult. It worked great for me and I'd recommend it.

It's over a 100lbs! I could load it on a trailer by myself. I would use the tires and load the side with the tires and then pick up with the handle side, two people can load it no problem. It's a little two bulky for one person to handle. I have picked it up by myself, but it's hard for one person.

Yes, the 12 inch tires are rated for highway use and the load capacity of the trailer is 1060 lbs. I found the trailer to be very well constructed and easy to assemble. Even though the max speed rating is listed as 45 MPH I had no problems towing a full load at 65 MPH. However, I would make sure the bearings are adequately greased as indicated by other responses. There are grease fittings on the inside of the axle hub. I check the bearings for overheating throughout my trips. Usually by lightly touching the bearing hub with the back of my hand. I also note any heat difference between the two wheels. Yes, the 12 inch tires are rated for highway use and the load capacity of the trailer is 1060 lbs.

The trailer seems to be pretty durable. I like it mainly because it is lightweight. I've never tried pulling more than 30 pounds in it, so I don't know how much it is capable of.

I am 250lbs and felt that the thing would move a bit from side to side at speed but it would take a very deliberate throwing of weight to tip it over - the base is very heavy. The biggest issue is the tendency for one wheel to leave the track. See other reviews but this seems to be a combination of weight (230 lbs+) of user, occasional loosened bolts, and ungreased rails. If you are under 230, you may never have an issue but I was frustrated with it given that it is advertised as suitable for much heavier weights.

Sure. As long as the gross trailer weight is under 10,000 lbs. and the tongue weight is less than 1,000 lbs.

Depends on how much junk you have in the boat... and how far you're going to haul it. Big motor..? I wouldn't do it, since the weight would hang quite a bit back on the load. The trailer is stout enough, but I'd be sensible about how much it could handle.

No problem at all as the hardware is attached to the frame rails and hangs below the frame rails. My trailer weighs about 6,000 loaded and I compress the bushing to 2.6 inches and that is perfect for my set-up. Once you get yours dialed in you will love it. Very easy to hook up, no sway control to disconnect when backing in and it is silent as well. I bought a ratchet wrench to adjust the nuts and it works very well. Enjoy!!

This trailer is very light as is and is easily moved by itself. As for hauling large uncut logs I don't think it would hold up. It just bolts together and the steel is not that heavy nor hardened. I've bent it with ratcheting tie downs. Mine won't even square. The shape of the "bar" pieces is: __| |__

Since it snaps and screws together I would have to say that you probably wouldn't want to have to take it apart again but It's very light and can easily put on a trailer while still together to be moved! I had to move mine after I put it together and it work out for me.
