In the spirit of "every bike's a cargo bike", show us how you use your trailer to get stuff shifted. Yes I've got a cargo bike but it's got a big box on it. When I want to move big things I often find myself using my Carry Freedom Y trailer instead. The flatbed is bigger and when the trailer is unloaded I can ride faster than I can on my Bullitt (and I'm not so afraid of changing flat tyres either!). So - two years ago I picked up some bedside tables on the way home from work, via fb marketplace:

This evening on the same bike and trailer (but a new Wheeltop wireless electronic groupset!) I repeated the experience:

I do love the look of confusion on the seller's face as you arrive with a cycle helmet in your hand. This time as I was leaving there was a kid/teenager on the first floor looking down at me I assume with some surprise. I hope I expanded his mind a bit to what's possible with a bike. Lead by example! 😁

I don't have mine any more, so no pics.

It was a single seat Slokey Joe trailer, and once Mini D had outgrown it I preformed surgery and turned it into a flat bed cargo trailer with a 10mm Marine ply bed.

I once used it to move a slimline dishwasher from my place about half a mile to it's new owner at the other side of the village.

Sadly when I moved for various reasons (short timescales, lack of sheds and storage at rhe new gaff) I had to he a little ruthless and it ended up going in a skip.
