I always ask a copper questions like these, they are public servants !
Sorry don't know the true answer
No.
That does not actually cover the question asked and at first sight neither do any of the other sections

Thinking aloud.......I would suggest one of the main issues would be the insured liability aspect, as without it attached to a vehicle there is no 3rd party liability in the event of an incident.
While attached to a vehicle it will be insured and covered.
Would the same issue apply to a caravan ?
Skips would be insured and would have a permit?
It would be illegal to leave any trailer unattended on the public highway (the highway extends from kerb to kerb or hedgerow to hedgerow)and also an offence would be committed if it was not displaying an index number (registration number).
There's no problem with it being left on private property without an index number. If parked with a vehicle during the hours of darkness on a public highway then lights must also be displayed.
HGV's sometimes 'drop' their trailers in lay-bys but again this is illegal unless the towing unit is attached.
So the answer to your question David is 'no'
thank for the replies it was hypothetical really say you was on a job and a mate rang said he had broken down come and tow my trailer home drop yours off whip the numberplate's off to use on his.
though on odd occasions i have dropped the tailer off to go to the shop to get breakfast/lunch (smack my wrist)
