A trailer includes a set of removable castor wheels attached to a rear portion thereof, wherein the castor wheels are oriented to face rearwardly when the trailer is oriented in the traditional horizontal position. This arrangement allows the trailer to be tilted upwardly into a vertical orientation so that it rests on the castor wheels, thus providing an apparatus and method for easily moving and storing trailers more efficiently due to the reduced footprint required for such trailer storage. The castor wheels, in one embodiment, include mounting brackets that may be attached to the trailer using a securing rod, similarly to the mounting mechanisms commonly used for removably attaching trailer hitches into trailer hitch sleeves, thus rendering the castor wheels removable from the trailer when they are not in use for storage purposes.
