If you’ve ever tried to park your travel trailer in a tight spot but struggled because your towing vehicle just couldn’t maneuver it in there, you’ll appreciate the Parkit360 electric trailer dolly. In this post, we explore Parkit360 – what it is, what it can do, how it works, and who might benefit from one.
What Is the Parkit360?
The Parkit360 is a compact, battery-powered electric trailer dolly that can maneuver trailers weighing up to 15,000 lbs, including travel trailers, boat trailers, and utility trailers. Parkit360 power dollies push and pull almost any-sized trailer easily, allowing you to maneuver your trailer into the tightest spaces. They’re easy to operate and are compact enough to fit in the back of a Mini Cooper.
Made in Canada of powder-coated alloy steel, Parkit360 models are compatible with several ball-mounted hitches. The Parkit360 can be powered by the battery on your trailer (via a power cable adapter) or by placing almost any 12V battery into the battery box and powering it.
The Parkit360 electric trailer dolly is available in three models, each with different features and capacities tailored to your trailer moving needs:
Scout 3K
The Scout 3K is a small trailer dolly that isn’t powered at all (other than by you).

This lightweight, hand-operated dolly is designed specifically for parking very lightweight trailers with a gross weight of up to 3,000 lbs and a tongue weight of up to 300 lbs. With a manual crank handle and a 20-inch ball mount adapter, it comes ready to assist you in moving your small trailers into even the tightest spots by hand.
Force 5K & 10K
The Force 5K and 10K are motorized and are designed to assist in parking large camping trailers and boats. They come with two hitch balls (2″ and 2 5/16″). To use them, you simply engage the motor, connect the battery, secure the ball mount, and move your trailer to your desired location.
The Force 5K has a towing capacity of 5,000 lbs gross weight and a tongue weight of 900 lbs. The Force 10K has a towing capacity of up to 10,000 pounds gross weight and a tongue weight of 900 pounds. The 5K and 10K are both electric trailer dollies equipped with 1.5 HP motors that can operate at either high or low speeds (high is best for long distances, while low offers better control in tight spots). On both models, the motor can also be disengaged for unrestricted manual movement.
Both Force units have 6.5-inch tires for traction on asphalt, concrete, gravel, or grass. They’re not recommended for use on grades greater than 6%. These units utilize Intelligent Speed Control (ISC), enabling them to automatically adjust speed and braking according to the terrain on which the dolly is traveling. Both models provide the ability to use the trailer’s tongue jack instead of the ball attachment for added convenience and stability.

The Force 10K doesn’t appear to be available on Amazon, but it can be found for sale on the ParkIt360 website.
Transformer 15K
The Transformer 15K is the most powerful model in the Parkit360 series. Designed for moving ball-mounted, fifth-wheel, and gooseneck trailers weighing up to 15,000 lbs gross and 3,000 lbs tongue weight, the Transformer 15K features a 1.5 HP motor with ISC, a dual-chain drive system, and an adjustable fifth-wheel attachment.

There are three versions of the Transformer 15K, all of which include a wireless controller, battery charger, smart brake controller, and two U1 sealed batteries:
- 15K-B: The Transformer 15K-B is a ball mount-only unit with a maximum capacity of 10,000 lbs GVWR and 1,000 lbs tongue weight. It includes a stabilizer system and comes with a 20″ ball mount, a ball mount kit, and two hitch balls.
- 15K-BF: The Transformer 15K-BF is a ball mount and fifth wheel unit with a maximum capacity of 15,000 lbs GVWR and tongue weight of 3,000 lbs. It comes with a 20″ ball mount, a 50″ kingpin adapter, and universal stabilizer bars (including a kingpin box for trailers with round legs or a landing leg connection for trailers with square legs).
- 15K-G: The Transformer 15K-G is a custom gooseneck dolly with a maximum capacity of 12,000 lbs GVWR and a tongue weight of 1,500 lbs. The gooseneck is customized based on hitch ball size, trailer leg style, and the height from the ground to the hitch. It comes with one custom hitch ball (measurements required) and universal stabilizer bars.

A 2-year manufacturer’s warranty covers all Parkit360 trailer dollies, and a 30-day return policy protects purchases. If you’re not completely satisfied with your Parkit360 trailer dolly, you can return it within 30 days for a refund, minus the return shipping cost and a restocking fee.

I have one and it's really a 'life saver' for me. I have a tight, crooked driveway that also has a house eve that is close to that drive. Impossible to back it into place with my truck/van. This makes it possible and saves quite a bit per month if I had to use a rented spot.
That said... the only tough part of using one, for me, is turning the Parkit while hooked to the trailer and you aren't moving. If I have to reposition the Parkit to set things up for a tight curve, street to driveway it takes a LOT of pulling on the handle to position the Parkit to make that turn.. then back to the front position.

I have a Parkit 360 10k and am disappointed with the amount of personal force that I have to use to manage moving a light trailer. Instead of two wheels, I wish I would have bought one with the third wheel to keep it level for moving the trailer.
