When you create a LLC you create an operating agreement (similar to a shareholder agreement) identifying the trustee as the owner. For good measure, you should draft a bill of sale giving all of your interest in the LLC over to the trustee. All LLC contracts, licenses, insurance policies, etc. should be signed by you as trustee so there is no confusion who is the owner.

Name the trustee(s) of the Trust as the member(s) of the LLC when you first file the organization papers with the Secretary of State.
