Reese 60x24 Hitch Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - 500 lbs Capacity - Glossy Black
My 9 year old and I were able to assemble and install this in about an hour. The anti rattle bolt recommended in the video, and the lights, were great additions and I definitely recommend them too. Handled a 900 mile round trip around the northeast and had plenty of room to bring Xmas presents home in the Curt waterproof cargo bag.
This is a solid Cargo carrier. I was originally looking for a rooftop carrier but I came to realize that a cargo carrier is a far superior option for increased weight and size, ease of access, stability and aerodynamic. Although this one doesn't fold up, there is still adequate space to access the rear hatch on my SUV.

23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 4" Rise - Folding - 450 lbs
After purchasing a 2018 Honda CR-V Touring, my honey-to-do-task of having to bring trash to the dump every week must be done. I am not a big fan of placing trash inside my new car, despite having a rubber liner. So I purchased the Curt 2 inch receiver hitch and had it installed by my local mechanic. I did not want to have to hook up my small utility trailer to go to the dump since I have to go to work and park in a parking garage after making my trash drop off. I came across this Carpod M2205 walled carrier. I am thrilled with this and like the way it folds up when not in use. There was a simple assembly process to go through after it was received (quick shipping by the way). It is a little heavy placing into the hitch receiver, but note it is easier to place it into the hitch when folded up. I wrapped a piece of duct tape around the exact place of the insertion bar to line up the holes of the hitch pin. Its carrying capacity is well within what I need, and I am quite impressed. There is not much movement of the carrier while driving except for big bumps or potholes. This is an excellent alternative to carrying household garbage inside my new car. The walls are held in place with metal pins and a strap, that is a little short and could be a little bit longer. That would be my only complaint about using this car carrier. Otherwise, I highly recommend this for anyone who needs to carry items outside or to need more space.
I've owned the cargo carrier for 1 year now. I put it on the back of my Subaru Forester and I haven't taken it off yet. It's so useful for so many things, vacations, delivering big packages and taking items to the landfill it was a good purchase for me

24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Tilting - Folding - 500 lbs
I love this unit! I’m an avid Camper and Jeeper. My rig has big tires including the spare that requires additional clearance. In addition to hauling my gear, I had concerns about ground clearance off roading and stability. This unit exceeded my expectations on every point! I can even open the tailgate with the unit on and it still has enough clearance to fold up when not loaded. In addition to a great product, the order was confirmed and shipped same day and on my doorstep two days later. It was pretty easy to put together but having a second person to help and fit it on the first time is helpful. Great product!
Easy assembly. Took about 15 minutes. Includes everything needed, even 2 wrench tools! Feels sturdy and well made. Feels just like our other one( curt brand)

Curt 60x24 Hitch Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - 500 lbs Capacity - Matte Black
Great cargo rack! Well made and strong. We modified ours to carry our ebikes on top of our generator and cooler. We've been from coast to coast with no problems.
Used it a hand full of times for camping with two different SUVs and its been great. Once over 2000 miles round trip. With the waterproof bag you can hold more gear since it goes above the side rails. Just be careful if your driveway slopes down you’ll lightly scrape the ground when backing out. And if you have a smaller suv or car make sure you center the heaviest items or it will feel it pulling back and forth on the freeway.

23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier w/ Lid - 2" Hitches - Steel - Folding - 450 lbs
We had an issue with the pin holes aligning that allow the sides to connect to one another. I sent etrailer a message and they were quick to replace it. It’s not a really high quality basket but it’s one of the few that are caged in and fold up and out of the way like this. I use a hitch stabilizer with it as well since this is on the back of a 5th wheel. Overall happy with it but feel like the consistency and alignment of the walls could be better.
Very Good product that fit our needs well for extra carrying space for 5 day road trip with 5 people in Subaru Outback. Wanted something in addition to our cartop carrier that we could lock up gear in as we left car parked for several hours as we explored the coast and Redwoods. Stored a 52 qt cooler, Coleman collapsible 2-burner propane stove, milk crate, similarly sized-plastic bin of odds and ends, 3 camp chairs, large sun shade, blue tarp. All fit with bag closed and top on (used 3 same keyed locks with long U shackles (think 2 inch). Worked great and could barely see it in rearview mirror (had to really look for it) and could not hear it when travelling ( Did use antirattle plate, and hitch lock) . With gear did not feel it alter driving feel at all. Fit 2 inch hitch well and allowed rear gate to open with a couple millimeters clearance to spare (Fantastic! didn't think we would be able to open gate). Fitted with lights, harness was easy and I opted to attach all with twist ties. Quickly made lic plate holder out of sheet metal and used a battery powered light to illuminate plate to stay legal at night. Added some reflective tape all around. Set up worked great and without any problems. No problem travelling with in either up (folded up, no gear) or down (gear stowed and top locked on) position. While at campsites used as counter top for light items and place to spread out wet towels. No problem with CarPod bag but did not have any real precip to test, kept dusty roads out though. The corner ties on bag are a bit short but no big deal. Thought I might build a frame to add rigidity but wasn’t really necessary for us. Overall good item.

24x48 Lets Go Aero BigBoss Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs
This product is great for those who own SUVs. My Wife and I bought this hitch box for our Highlander to get some added hauling space for our family vacations. The added space allowed us to bring our BOB double stroller and beach chairs which would not have fit in the car with the coolers and suitcases. In a Highlander XLE this hitch box almost doubled the storage capacity of the vehicle for us. We took careful measurements of all of our gear before picking this model. The PROs for this hitch box are ease of installation on the vehicle, plus the multiple tie down holes make it easy to pack. ALSO FOR PARENTS! This hitch box will hold a BOB double jogging stroller. The wheels will fit right around the top edge (see photo) which means you do not loose storage space UNDER the stroller! This allowed us to put umbrellas and other bags in the box and the stroller+straps stopped these items from falling out. The CONs for this hitch box are the ease of assembly and the shipping material. The box was a little worse for wear when UPS dropped it off with some bent corners on the side panels of the hitch box. The primary main issue with assembly is two of the bolts that hold the bottom to the side are above the main center support making these two bolts incredibly frustrating to install. The second issue with assembly is the corner braces that firm up the vertical corners. The holes perfectly align on each corner, making tightening the bolts fully hard because you may not be able to fit a wrench in the space.
Good, rugged design. I sometimes worry about the ground clearance, but that has more to do with my vehicle and hitch than the design of the Big Boss. Once mounted, the silent hitch pin does a great job of securing the rig and eliminating noise. Very sturdy. I really like that there are several hole punches for tying down or ratcheting down your goods. I like the 6" tall walls, really keeps everything well protected. I was able to fit 3 full coolers on the Big Boss, and the best part is that my hatch was still able to open and close with ease. The license plate and brake lights are both still visible, so there is no need to move the tag or set up trailer electronics. Awesome!

24x27 TorkLift Lock and Load Maximum Security Cargo Tray for 2" Hitches 500 lbs
Excellent product! Should include a lockable pin for the receiver instead of just the pin. Someone could just take the whole thing . lol
The service at trailer is far and above anyone else in this industry. They are consistently helpful when making or researching an item. Prices are mostly comparable to the competition but the reason I buy from them is the service both pre and post sale.

23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier w/ Lid - 2" Hitches - Steel - 450 lbs
This my the second Carrier. I backed my first one into a pole and "TACO'd" it. I wouldn't have bought the second if it wasn't such a necessary option for my RV Good quality!
I gave etrailer.com 5 stars for there product support and getting the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier #M2200-2201 to me in time for our trip despite the bad weather across the Country and 5 Stars to Carpod for a great product that was easy to assemble and mount on my trailer. It easily held all needed it for.
What our customers are saying:
"I purchased the 2" trailer receiver Cargo Carrier along with the folding attachment. They both work great! I ended up also buying the brake light kit. Taller cargo itmes can block the vehicle tail lights. Hind sight being 20/20, I should have purchased the Tail Light Kit with the Cargo carrier."
