Power in trailer for battery chargers?

I was thinking of running a pig tail into my trailer to power three double battery chargers. I was wondering if anyone else has done this and if it is even a good idea. I like the idea of leaving my battery chargers in the trailer and running power from a temp. pole on the job. To take it one step further I had an idea to plug the battery chargers into a lamp/appliance timer and plugging in at home. I really don't know about this last idea?? (fire) Thank in advance for anyones input.

just insulate the trailer and add a heater, set to 45 degrees and leave everything in the trailer.

It is much better to keep your pneumatic tools above freezing also

Well, it only gets down to 20F here, if it got colder I would have to do a better insulation job and seal the vents.
