Advised not to repack bearings???
Two years ago, and with our previous trailer, we had a miserable and expensive bearing failure while 4k miles from home. At the time, we had buddy bearings and were under the impression that they did...

Since you really should inspect the bearings you may as well hand pack and install new seals. Easy lube misses that important step of inspection. I only see an advantage to a boat trailer where the hub filled with grease will better keep water out during launch.
First inspection and repack is most important. After you know it was done right the pack should last a long time. Manufacturer though mostly says to repack annually.
Carry an extra set of bearings, seal, nut, washer, pin & cap and you will never have a failure ;)
