Abstract: A telescoping trailer comprises an outer tube frame and at least one inner tube frame. The outer tube frame defines a void space and at least one inner tube frame is constructed and arranged to fit within the void space and slidingly engage the outer tube frame. The trailer has a sliding position and a secured position wherein in the sliding position an inner tube frame slidingly engages the outer tube frame and in the secured position a securing wall of the inner tube frame is secured against a securing wall of the outer tube frame such that the securing walls of the at least one inner tube frame and the outer tube frame are substantially parallel. The portion of the inner tube frame within the outer tube frame while in the secured position defines an over-lap area.
