why so much money?
where is the padlock on it?
 
Thieves these days carry angle grinders, for things like car catalytic converters, bicycles etc.
Generally a padlock and certainly your hasp & staple have no defense against them.
Padlocks only keep out the casual passer by, the determined thief will get into it.

Before you spend a penny on a padlock, go on Youtube, look on the LockpickingLawyers or Bosnianbill page and search within his video for your chosen lock.
They may show you how easy it is to open it. (that's for those that do not carry a grinder).

Put sheet metal on the underside of the hatch for the nuts side of dome headed coach bolts on a good quality (i.e. expensive) hasp and staple.
Also do the same for the hinges, protect them from attack too.

do you mean it is a hole in the floor, and a thief might crawl under the trailer to get in?

you could bolt it shut from the inside. Or put a heavy box on top.
