As you can see it's fairly easy and everyone has the same basic steps so I won't reiterate the same stuff here.
Ultimately the steps are fairly simple and you will figure it out pretty quickly so I'm only going to suggest what i think is a safety issue in all these steps.
Like ah64id states in rule #9, the safety chains stay attached until the trailer is disconnected, the wheels are chocked, and you have verified it's not going to roll away. I go one step further and when it comes time to break camp I try to always hook up a chain right after I back under the coupler.
If you want to know why, just stay on these forums for a while and someone will post about disconnecting the hitch and then trying to stop their trailer as it is rolling down the hill toward the lake. :E
