Must be missing something here.
Standard cart is 4' wide and at least 7' long.
Are you loading them sideways?
How are you getting them up there?
Pictures?

Sideways is how Kenny does his...made ramps to load and the cart goes up front. Don't have any pictures, but I know his trailer is at least 22' long.

Side loading is a popular option, for both open & closed trailers. Obviously, the length you need will depend on the combined measurements of the 2 vehicles. If a 20' will provide barely enuff room, I'd go with a 22'. And, who knows, you may wanna haul a longer vehicle, later on down the road. So, I'd go with the longer trailer.

In my photo gallery there is a photo of my Corvette and a cart on a 18 or 19 foot Big Tex, towed perfect.

Good luck,
Dave

Yup, Brian Thompson had a custom made open trailer made to haul his Stock and Super Stock Mustangs together along with his golf cart. Looks really long with everything loaded up, and looks even longer when empty!

Dale,

My trailer is a 34 ft tag trailer, custom made for me by Top Notch Trailers. Well built with (2) 7K axles.

Tows great. The cart loads from the side.
