An automated trailer coupling arrangement includes a downwardly opening receiver member supported in a bottom surface of a towed vehicle at a first vertical height and including pneumatic/electrical couplers, a shuttle member including pneumatic/electrical couplers to couple to pneumatic and electrical supply sources and an arm pivotably coupled to a towing vehicle at a second vertical height that is less than the first vertical height and including a carrier member to operably couple/uncouple with the shuttle member, and an actuator coupled to the carrier member to move the carrier between a first position where the carrier member is coupled with the shuttle member and the shuttle member is spaced from the receiver member, and a second position where the pneumatic couplers and electrical couplers are respectively coupled with one another and the carrier is uncoupled and spaced from the shuttle member.
