Thumbs down Uneven Tire Wear

I have a 2012 Wildwood 32BHDS. I have noticed that the tires on the passenger (entry) side have been wearing almost bald on the outer edges, and to a lesser degree on the inner edges, ever since I have owned this camper (since new). The tires on the other side have worn fine. This year, I swapped the tires from side to side, and the same thing happened again after only a few trips. I just ordered a new set of tires, but I am wondering if there is something causing this very strange, uneven wear, only on the one side. I realize trailer tires do not last more than three years or so, but we have not taken any long trips in the three years we have had our trailer. Any thoughts?

I'm not familiar with a 32bhds. Since you see wear on the outer edges, it seems like overloaded tires. Could it be that you are heavier on that side? Say a slide out or kitchen on the passenger side? The chart says under inflation, but that could be due to overloaded.
