-Go to a truck stop and spend a few bucks on the highly certified scales.
(That is your trailer empty weight.)
-Then go online and/or somehow obtain the weight of the hauled vehicle.
-Add the two together and compare to OEM trailer max specs.

I once drove a loaded Ford van across the country filled to the ceiling and at 150% GVW.

Check tires and grease the bearings. Drive 60 and keep plenty of space in front.
You will do fine forever.
