I'd say we're looking to get something like this.
20' would be the max, but more likely a 16-18' x 8' trailer. A/C unit on top, probably build a set of bunks, strap in our current kitchen counter carts, and maybe find a stainless sink that would just drain water out a hose to a drain/bucket/ditch. Would be great to have an awning on the side with an RV type door.
It would be a lot of empty space while towing, but something that would only require the smokers to be moved outside and adjusting a few things around inside the trailer to start the comp rather than our current double ez up, carts, table and multiple totes set up.
But I don't have any idea what that would weigh. An estimate of our current equipment is about 1400-1500 with meat and ice. With the larger trailer, we'd really only trim the carports and ez ups from the current load. And let's say an 18" trailer with air weighs 2700.
In the future, won't you want cabinets/shelves, a large water reservoir, a commercial fridge, big screen tv, and an FEC-300? And don't forget the generators for the juice. Try and get a truck that can handle the weight for everything you may possibly want in the trailer rather than just the stuff you have now.
