The fact is that a co-owner can invite whoever they want into the property. Accordingly, you have no rigts here to claim tresspass. What you can do is to force the sale of the trailer. In a situation when joint owners cannot agree as to ownership matters, the law provides the remedy of "partition". Accordingly, the court will order that the property be divided if possible. If not, such as in the case of a trailer, then it will order a "sale in lieu of partition". Pursuant to this, the property will be put on the market and sold for fair market value. The proceeds will then be equitably distributed. However, before being offered to any 3rd parties for purchase, any owner who wants to buy out the other owner(s) can do so.
