Depending on where the fresh water and low point drains are located, you my not want the camper sitting flat on the trailer.
I would fasten 4 X 4's around the perimeter of camper bottom. Leave spaces for forks from a forklift. Camper could go on and off the trailer with a forklift, and, the 4" space below the camper could be used to plumb the drains out the side.
My FW drain is up front. Before I did the 4 X 4 thing to my TC, if I wanted to drain the fresh tank, it dumped into the truck bed, and the camper was sitting in the water. Now, it drains out behind the truck.
