Waterproof Hitch Cargo Carrier Bag — 12.5 Cu Ft Soft-Shell
Product description
Note: hitch-mounted luggage basket is not supplied with the bag.
Water-resistant construction: The carrier is fabricated from durable 600D Oxford fabric and features a Velcro-over flap along with dual waterproof zippers. Sealed seams add an extra layer of protection so items remain shielded from rain, snow, wind, sun and sand while in transit.
Security and fastening: Eight reinforced, adjustable safety straps attach the bag to a hitch-mounted cargo basket and help keep it firmly anchored during travel. The seams are reinforced and the closing system is designed to help prevent water ingress. After use the soft-shell carrier folds down for compact storage.
Capacity and fit: The bag measures 53" W x 20" H x 20" D, giving about 12.5 cubic feet of capacity — enough for several sleeping bags or a few medium suitcases and other gear. It is intended to sit on a trailer hitch cargo basket or rear-mounted carrier to expand trunk space for moves, vacations and outdoor activities.
Installation and use: Attach the eight adjustable straps to your cargo basket and cinch them tight; installation typically takes only a few minutes. It’s recommended to position the empty bag on the basket before loading items to ensure correct placement. The bag is not designed for roof mounting — it’s made for rear baskets and pickup beds.
Compatibility and applications: This hitch cargo bag fits vehicles with a rear basket or compatible platform and works well on SUVs, off-road vehicles, MPVs, pickup trucks and RVs. Ideal uses include camping, tailgating, transporting sports equipment and adding temporary cargo capacity for road trips.

Good for temporary use
Average build and awkward to handle. Straps worked but the bag was tight for large suitcases; useful as a stopgap, not for frequent heavy use.

Useful but not fully watertight

Solid so far on calm trips
Performed well for a short trip. Straps held gear securely and the bag stayed put. I used it in calm weather only, but the construction seems solid and should resist rough roads.

Extremely durable and protective
Extremely sturdy — fit my Jeep's hitch without issue. Kept contents dry in heavy rain and protected from heat. Bulky but effective for long drives.
