Why not just put the ball in the socket on the trailer hitch and clamp in in place just like when you are towing. Put a padlock on it so no-one messes around and drops it on thier toes.

I made a home made handle to allow me to use one hand for hitch and the other to latch the coupler. Pictures are from old hitch but still works the same with the New Blue Ox hitch.
