So... even if your trailer is legal at 8'6", can you have something (ie: Razor) hanging over the edges (bumpers sticking over)? If so, what do you need for that?

what you need for that is to get pulled over in BC, you will be parked on the spot until the problem (overwidth) is fixed. To get an oversize permit in BC you must be a commercial vehicle and have a "non-reducible load"
