A small trailer also makes a good "reserved" marker at a CG to ensure one's pad doesn't get taken, assuming good security on it.
We have had 3 or 4 little hauling trailers (open 4x8s) stolen off the street with all kinds of locks on them, tongue locks, padlocks. The only thing we havent tried is a wheel lock. I wouldnt leave it anywhere without some kind of really good lock on it. Altho I do trust the campgrounds I stay at.
At the risk of derailing the thread, I learned from the local LEOs here that tongue locks are for the most part worthless since the bad guys just use chains to move the trailer, especially if it is a small, light one. If you want theft-resistance, leave a token lock on the tongue (so a thief doesn't think it is open for all), and use a wheel clamp or chain. While wheel locks won't stop someone with an angle grinder, it ups the ante to keep things in place.
