Will The Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly # TVXL2 Work In Grass/Dirt/Gravel Mixture?

Question

Question:

Hi, Im wondering if the Trailer Valet will work for my situation. I have a very odd angle to back my boat trailer into my garage and its pretty difficult with a truck due to the size of the garage door vs. trailer. Please see the attached photos of the area Id need to use the valet on. Its grassed / compacted gravel, relatively level though there are some slight dips and also there is a lip at the edge of the concrete slab. I realize if the area is wet, it wont work but wondering if its relatively dry if that would work okay. Im eventually going to pave the area, but not able to just yet. My boat probably weighs about 3500 lbs or so with a tongue weight of around 500lbs Im guessing.

Yes, the Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly # TVXL2 will work in your situation. The solid rubber tires have treads which will give you traction in the grass/gravel/dirt situation you find yourself. As this is rated for trailers up to 10,000lbs with up to 1,000lbs of tongue weight you will have no problems with weight. With having a lip you mentioned you may need to add some dirt there if the Trailer Valet is not able to push it over the bump.
