Some day I may get an enclosed trailer but I couldn't afford one right now so I got what I could that suits my main needs.
I have considered storing out-of-season clothes in PVC float bags, then in a plastic tote and then wrapping it in a tarp for storage on the trailer. That way I don't have to store my heavy coats and clothes in the van when it's 80 degrees out. Or store more than a few tshirts in the van when it's heavy coat weather.
