Follow these guidelines
Make sure to check your owner's manual to learn the towing capacity of your vehicle. Many vehicle manufacturers also list towing capacity on their websites.
Every U-Haul trailer has an empty and maximum gross (fully loaded) labeled on the inside of the trailer at the front.
Load your trailer with at least 60% of the cargo weight in the front half of the trailer closest to your car.
Secure your load with rope to the trailer tie downs. This will prevent the load from shifting or damaging your belongings.
