Trailer-packing

I'm looking at an alternative to carrying a traditional pack, just for as short period.
Due to some imminent shouider surgery I need to avoid carrying weight for a few months.
Can anyone suggest a suitable trailer?

What kind of ground are you going to be on?

Mostly footpaths and LRTs, although there's going to be around a km of quite rough stuff. Hopefully no deer fences!

Well my surgery is done, now it's back to hunting for a trailer again. I'm doing the TGO Challenge on 18th June, so I need to get my fitness back AND find a trailer. So far I've come up wth this option from Austrailia. It seems a bit fiddly but it might just do the job: https://trekkersfriend.com/

And a couple of bamboo gardening canes might work to support the trailer whilst you can still use your trekking poles yourself ??
