Both work, bunks are cheaper and have less moving parts. I plan to put a few wide rollers along the keel just to make me feel better and ensure centering.
Van...good luck with it. IMO the worst part about trailering is the maintenance of the hubs/breaks/rotors/bearings with seawater and air...I wish someone made composite wheels and breaks for trailers that didn't corrode. I think my last trailer had 60 miles on it and the wheels froze to the breaks and I had a wash-out kit and it still corrodes. Seawater+ air+ time+steel = nightmare
I like that idea of a couple of rollers to keep in on center. If I have issues that will work.
Also while researching this whole subject, I found a manufacturer that said TO avoid freezing of the pads to the discs while in storage, wash well, let them dry, then spray paint the discs right up to the pads. That will prevent sticking and corrosion and the paint will burn off within minutes and not cause any lack of braking power. Of course NEVER use grease or nevaseez or wd-40. I might try that paint trick
