How Do You Install a Storage Cover on a Tall 5th Wheel or Travel Trailer

Question:

I am just curious about how you get these large covers over a 22 ft. box that is over 10 f t. tall. Is there a recommended procedure, or some tools to help?

When installing a cover such as # 290-52272 you pretty much have to get on top of the trailer and install it from the top down. Ladders and a couple of old enough kids or grand kids also help. But if you are doing it by yourself the best option is to get on the roof.

I have linked a video on a different cover below. It shows our installer climbing up to the roof to install the cover.
