I am have been searching and considering to buy a trailer dolly like a Power caster or Trailer Valet XL. I want to be able to move and manuever my box or flat bed and/or ultimately my stacker trailer behind my gate at the house. Will any of these work. They say rated up to 10K weight?

Force Electric Trailer Dolly – Parkit360

Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly with Chain Drive - 2-5/16" Hitch Ball - 10,000 lbs Trailer Valet Trailer Dolly TVXL25 (etrailer.com)

Power Caster Models

It is tight and at an angle for the trailer to get tucked behind the gate. It will definitely fit but multiple tries with truck. Anyone have real experience or suggestions on this? I know forklift but my house does not have the additional room for a forklift.

 
I bought one of these and it works really well. Moves my 32' fully loaded with no problems. Yes, it's expensive but it works!

I used to have one of the smaller Parkit Force models. Said it was rated for 10k. It would move 9k backward and forward but turning it was a PITA. The new one I have has two motors and so it power steers. The wireless remote is awesome. I can stand at the back of the trailer and drive it into the shop and stop right where I want it. 

I wouldn't waste your time with a Valet, especially with a heavy stacker. Power Caster are nice but what about when you don't have 110v to plug into? I take my dolly with me in the back of the trailer and use to put my trailer into my spot at the campground. This allows me to pull it in forward and then my rear door is easy to drive in/out of all weekend. 

Text me or call me if you want any more info on the one I have. 

 
I also have the PC3 and it works great. I did a U turn in my driveway with a 3 axle 32-foot box trailer. I only did once because it was horrible on the tires, but it handled it no problem. 

 
I have a Power Caster PC3. Trailer is a 24’ box enclosed tandem axle with 1000 lbs of tongue weight and an overall weight of 8500 lbs. My PC3 has no issues pushing that trailer wherever I need it to go. I chose electric over battery because I didn’t want to hassle with battery maintenance/replacement. I will say that if the concrete is wet or sandy than traction can be a problem. Power Casters are also built like a tank.

 
Just can't justify it. Gonna go broke in this sandcar game and bidets inflation.😪🤣🤣🤣
don't know if you saw my link in his post, there's one in my town and can ship to you if needed.
