Question:
Looking for a carrier for my 2023 Forester to carry a non-electric wheel chair. It is 36 inches high, and I want to put it into a waterproof bag for transporting. Your folding carrier is interesting.

Hey Randy,
I typically recommend our etrailer folding cargo carrier # e98874. It has the convenience of the fold away feature and also allows for up to 500lbs of cargo if you ever wanted to add to what you carry on it. Since it is not enclosed you won't have to worry about height, but it will allow you to use that weatherproof bag and easily tie it down for safety. It comes with an anti-rattle bolt to reduce any movement in the rear when in use.
Are you wanting more of an enclosed style carrier?
