I've lived in campgrounds and RV parks (monthly rent) that the only way they would allow a truck camper to be off loaded from a truck was for it to have a Stable Lift for the jacks OR to be on a flatbed trailer.
I do not know their reasoning for it and I never asked. But it is something to keep in mind.
I personally see no problem with a truck camper sitting on a flatbed trailer. But then I may be considered a "redneck". I do not consider that to that to be the insult most here think it is. Most of the bumper pull trailer mounted truck campers that I have seen had the camper sitting over the tires similar to how it would sit on a truck and storage boxes were tucked under the front of the camper. Gooseneck trailers tended to have the camper pushed up to the front with the bed overhang over the gooseneck section. Both of these positions left a nice "deck" out the rear of the camper It looked like a pretty good idea to me.
Our truck camper is on a Stabile Lift. But it is rarely removed from the truck.
