You can find information on how much a cord of wood weighs. It varies
depending on the type of tree. But if it were me, I would make the
rails higher than what is necessary for hauling wood. That way the
trailer is suitable for hauling lighter things such as taking leaves
to the dump. The tires might give you a good idea of how much weight
the trailer can haul.
