If you can pull a trailer OUT of a spot, you ought to be able to back INTO that same spot. So when backing into a tight spot, picture the path you would follow to drive out. The trailer will need to follow the same path, and the tow vehicle will follow the trailer.
The other day my neighbor was trying to back his brand-new 40 foot fifth-wheel RV into his driveway. He knew it could be done, since the dealership had previously delivered it with no problem.

His rig simply couldn't make the turn without running over his mailbox. I told to pull over to the left and start over. He got it in on his second try. If he had visualized the path he would have taken pulling out of his driveway, he would have realized he needed to either enter from the opposite direction or use the left side of the street.
