If you have B+E license then it is the Train Weight and axle weights that are important. Always load car and trailer so that you don't overload your rear axle weight limit.
Seen many a caravanner chuck everything in the boot of the car and then put 75kg nose weight on the towbar in the aim of stability without any regard to axle weight. You only need between 4-7% of the trailer weight as a nose weight provided you don't exceed the towbar limit.
