I agree with the general consensus.
OK to rent IF you are also OK with damage to your trailer.

If doing it all over again, I'd gone with a smaller one bike trailer ( one made just for the bike )

Enclosed is great for hauling stuff but a pain for me ( backing up and storing )

As a side issue rather than installing conventional wheel chocks I would install a Condor wheel chock .I saw them demoed a Laughlin River Run and wish I knew about Condor when I set my trailer up!

Condor is overpriced!

You definitely want to double check with your agent on this. Most states vehicle policies will cover an attached trailer for liability, but not for property damage to the trailer itself. For example: if you backed into another vehicle or if the trailer became unhitched & caused damage to another vehicle, the other vehicle/person's damages would be covered, but not the damage to your trailer.
