Thank you all for the obvious, but enlightening information about trailers, per se. Jacking sequentially from the corners (single operator) would cause undue torque to be applied to the wooden or aluminum box seams and joints. I want no leaks, especially when there are alternative storage methods.
I will simply drive the 5er on a long 2x6 (one for each side), air up the tires to recommended pressure, give them all a squirt of Armor All® protectant, and cover them, as I planned!

Thank you very much,

PSDave
