Temporarily modified the car trailer
So 15 years ago, I cheaped out and bought an open rail Econo Trailer. I think I paid 1850 for it brand new back then. 12 years ago, I put 2x10's just inside the rails, and a 2x4 down the center, to lay a 1/2 sheet of plywood on. Worked great to haul the 4 wheelers hunting. Been like that ever since.
The temporary mod? I just laid a sheet of 3/4in subfloor on top of what was already between the rails and built a 2ft high 9ft by 6.5ft box to haul the crush for under the pavers we're doing for the patio/pavilion/pit area. We are halfway done the 13x32 area. I put a trucking tie down strap over both ends just so it can't bounce up and down. I can carry 4 ton in it without issue.
Oh, and guess what Honey - a patio does not get completed in 48 hours in real life like they do on HGTV.....
