The serial number and VIN are typically printed on a label or plate placed somewhere on the trailer's pole tongue, although it could possibly found elsewhere on the trailer frame, possibly on the inside edge of the frame so it's more protected. Many times the sticker will also include the axle rating, GVWR and other important information.
