Hopefully the link to the pic will work.

It is a tricky downhill turn with the corners of the buildings at odd angles and still the gates to get through.

I'd struggle to do it solely with mirrors. ย Hats off to truck drivers who do this every day

It'll be fun getting that back out too...

Yeah, I might be unhitching the trailer and using the disco to manoeuvre the neighbour's car before trying to get that back out of there!

I got it out with a few inches to spare.

I thought it looked simple until I noticed the little car, dual axle?

Yes it's a twin axle trailer, the blue car was just in about the only spot that would allow the turn

Something deeply satisfying about getting a trailer into a tight spot. Just threaded our hay trailer round a corner and between the hedge and a pickup with only inches to spare.

First time I ever towed was also the first time I ever drove a tractor and I had to reverse it through a gateway with less than 6" clearance either side terrified of catching a tractor tyre sidewall on the hinges.

It's a shame you always pull off the best moves in a single attempt when no one is watching. As soon as someones watching it goes to shit.
