Hey, I had a Large Carry Freedom trailer for a while, carrying similar things.
They come up for sale on eBay here and there at a good price.
I really rated it, super well built, easy to store in a compact way.If you need bigge the Donkey Trailers seem to be the way to go.

Trailer newby here, any advice appreciated,
I'm looking to transport a 30kg heatpress to local events. It's a heavy, dense weight, 70cm x 42cm, so figure the weight lowdown on a trailer would be best (over a cargo bike or rack) plus could be mounted to any bike, and also used to transport by foot/train if needed.
Any recommendations between 2 or 1 wheeled? I'm guessing with the width & size of the press, the only option might be the squarer 2-wheel models. Any difference in handling? Current plan would be v infrequent use, over relatively short distances, and ideally would store flat when not in use. Budget would be whatever it's worth spending money on ie, not the cheapest if the bearings turn to dust in 6 months and it chucks cargo into the road.
Finally any other pointers would be appreciated, what to look out for when riding, anything I should adapt, optimising visibility/flags etc.
