A retractable trailer enclosure system for use in covering at least part of the bed of a trailer includes a flexible cover which may be retracted to reveal or extended to cover the trailer bed and items thereon. An elongated spindle is mounted to the trailer and is movably supported in a horizontal orientation by a spindle mount along a generally arcuate extending path. The spindle mount consists of a pair of spaced pivot rods elongated from a first end to a second distalmost end. The first end is secured to an associated pivot while the second end is movable along the arcuate path. Each pivot rod is provided as a telescoping rod with the distalmost end being movable radially outwardly from the pivot. A tensioner resiliently biases the distalmost end to the retracted position. A drive selectively rotates the spindle to thereby extend or retract the cover.
