well there are much cheaper ways to go then the trailer that those guys make.
for starting out I would try to find a kid trailer used on craigslist or freecycle and put groceries and whatnot in it, for most of your hauling needs I would think that would be sufficient and much much cheaper. and you can even strip out the cloth and put down some plywood and bolt rubbermade boxes to it.
check out bikeforums.net for a good bicycle specific forum, and they have a utility bike section which has great info and has many ideas that will help give you ideas for a trailer if you really want to do it.
