Summary:A collapsible vehicle trailer comprises a detachable lightweight enclosure (1), consisting of flexible, collapsible walls (21) and floor (22). The enclosure has two or more support frame members (2) integral to the structure of the enclosure. The support frame members are integrated into the structure of the enclosure by virtue of horizontal loops (3) and vertical loops (4). The enclosure is detachably connected to the rigid frame of the vehicle trailer, by means of the integral support frame members and the front transverse frame member (5) and the rear transverse frame member (6). The enclosure becomes a self supporting, freestanding structure when detached from the trailer frame. The enclosure also acts as a storage bag for the constituent components of the collapsed trailer frame.
