Ratcheting tie-downs - especially in open trailers:
For the last few 'clicks' when tightening down on the ratchet, capture the end of the tie-down strap. Will prevent end from fraying and, unless you've got really long straps, hold them pretty much out of the way.
My wife sewed the ends into a small loop and I use a small bungie to attach the free ends to either another strap or the anchor point for the strap. Of course this isn't needed when used out of the wind, but on an open trailer keeps them from flapping around.
