Having driven a tractor Trailer for a living many years ago I learned the technique that SargeW described by setting yourself up using what I call the snake maneuver. Hug the side your site will be on, as you pass it turn your tow vehicle to the opposite side of the road until the back end of you TT is at the entrance to your site. Turn your steering wheel in the opposite direction that would do normally if you did not have a trailer and begin backing up. Your trailer should now be heading into your site. As you are backing up you will now need to start correcting your steering following your unit into your site. I f room allows pull forward to straighten out your combo and complete backin. Be patient as other have stated.
I also use orange cones if no spotter is available and will place chocks behind rear wheel where I want to stop.
