Question:

Hey etrailer, We'll mostly be carrying coolers, duffel bags, and firewood on our MoveHitch. Do you recommend using a cargo net, and if so, which one fits best? Thanks! Melissa

Hey Melissa! A cargo net is definitely a good idea when you're carrying a lot of gear like that. The Benton HotMesh Cargo Net # B32FR is going to be the best option since its specifically designed to fit a 24" x 60" like the Benton MoveHitch # B86VR.

This stretches over coolers, totes, firewood, and other bulky gear to help keep everything contained while your straps hold the load securely in place. We also have the Benton MoveHitch available with the cargo net # B38VR.

What kind of trips are you planning this season?

Thanks for the quick response! This is exactly what we're looking for. Mostly local camping trips, we like to keep it spontaneous!

@Melissa you're welcome! The carrier # B86VR paired with the cargo net # B32FR is going to be a really nice setup. Hope you have a safe and fun time on your camping trips. If you need anything else don't hesitate to reach out.

Can I still use ratchet straps underneath this net? I like the idea of the net keeping smaller stuff contained but I'd still want the coolers and heavier gear strapped down.

@DerekC absolutely. I would still use straps to secure your heavier cargo to the carrier and then stretch the # B32FR over everything to help keep the rest of your gear contained.
