I'll be storing mine on a rack in the rear of the trailer.

For right now, I am about to put a 3100 Watt Champion in the forward part of the bed. I am going to consider setting up a rack on the rear of the trailer to move some weight further back.

Use to set it in the hall just inside the door in our W hawk but after getting excessive tire wear on the passenger side tires that many say was caused by too much weight on that side, I switched it to the driver side usually under the dining table. My WH has a kitchen slide so the fridge and stove are located right over the passenger side axles. Time will tell if that helps even out the tire wear.

It weighs 44 lbs empty. I could store it in the dinette seat and leave the plywood cover off but it's awkward for me to reach to the middle section. The first section has an electrical box in the corner which is in the way. It could become damaged if I try to put the generator in the first section closest to the door.
My 2000w Powerhorse generator goes in the truck bed under the tonneau cover, and the dog rides inside with us. I don't think that I have any useful suggestions for your issues.

Mine fits nicely in the forward pass thru. Sometimes I put one 2000 generator on each side if I am going to need both.

Go to Goodwill Buy a fluffy comforter
Wrap it around generator and stuff it in tub
And make sure it can’t roll around.
Ours is in the bed of the TV as the passenger cabin is separate

X2. I have the trailer tray also. When I'm not hauling my bikes, only 4 bolts remove the bike rack and the generator goes up there.
