I had my tow dolly for 25 years and it was the backing in spots that finally convinced me to flat tow. Not that it is difficult, just I was getting older. The basic procedure is to unhook just before or just after the site. Then decide will the dolly be parked in front on in the rear of the RV. If in the rear, push the empty dolly into the site and make sure it is out of the way. Then back in. If in front, back in, then push the dolly up tight, perhaps sliding the tongue under the RV. In both cases, the addition of a drop down wheel on the tongue is a really big help. The drop down wheel is available at Walmart and online. In all my years of MHing I have only once been asked to store the dolly off site. Outdoor Resorts in Palm Springs had me store the dolly in their trailer lot. It really was not a problem as they had a transport vehicle (small tractor) to take it to the lot and return it when I was ready to check out. Not a problem at all.
