Expert Reply:
The UWS Underbody Aluminum Trailer Toolbox # UWS04012 does not include any mounting hardware since it is a general-purpose product. So you'll determine the best installation method for your preferred mounting point on your specific trailer. The amount of weight you'll load into it should be taken into account as you determine the mounting location and method of attachment. The box itself weighs about 50-lbs.
You might use L-brackets like # CE10211G, if you don't mind drilling into the box, which would let you use multiple attachment points to best distribute the total weight along the mounting area. But certainly you could also use steel strapping if you prefer not to drill into the box.
We also have heavy-duty steel outrigger brackets # LC301704, meant for mounting RV steps, that could certainly work too. This item is shown in the linked photo.
