Hi -I found a new boarding facility for my horse and the parking spot they have for my LQ horse trailer is uneven ground. It's uneven terrain where all four tires would be on different levels (probably have to use 4WD to get it outa there in the rain kinda parking spot) - and since I'm new to trailering (this is my first LQ and just got it) -- I'm not sure if that's going to bad for the foundation of the LQ.I was thinking of asking them if I can just buy some gravel and fill the area in and make it somewhat level - I would think they'd be okay with free gravel....Thoughts?

If the trailer will be stored, an uneven pad won't hurt anything. If the LQ and its equipment will be used during storage, a more level area will alleviate any appliance problems. Before you haul any gravel, you might consider RV jacks that are used to level various types of RVs. Another consideration is a small hydraulic jack and some concrete blocks, to temporary level the trailer while its in storage.
If the trailer is going to be often moved, the only reasonable recourse is to have a fairly level pad.
