Expert Answers about Toyota Hitch Cargo Carrier Bag


  • Does the Curt Cargo Bag # C18211 Have a Weight Capacity
  • Cargo bags, like the Curt Cargo Bag # C18211 that you referenced, do not have weight ratings on them. The reason being is that they are intended to protect cargo and not really to lift and move cargo. The weight capacity of a hitch mounted cargo bag will depend on a few variables. You will need to know the weight capacity of your cargo carrier, trailer hitch, and your vehicle itself. If the Tongue eight (TW) of your trailer hitch and vehicle is at least 500 lbs then you could potentially...

  • Will Golf Bags Fit in a Thule Arcos Enclosed Cargo Carrier # TH25YE
  • Typical golf bag dimensions are 50 x 12 x 10 inches, respectively. The Thule Arcos Enclosed Cargo Carrier # TH25YE has internal dimensions of 55-1/8" long x 20" wide x 17-5/16" tall therefore a golf bag should fit easily. You will need to measure your golf bag to determine the exact length. You will want to measure from the tip of your driver (which should be your longest club) to the outside bottom of the bag to get an overall length of what is to go in the carrier. If you find your...

  • Will the Cargo Bag for Carpod Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier # M2202 Keep Bag Contents Dry
  • The Cargo Bag for Carpod Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier # M2202 that you referenced would keep the contents of the bag dry under normal rain circumstances. As long as the flap that goes over the zipper is folded down over it the rain would deflect off of the bag and not make it's way inside the bag. For added security I would recommend putting the cargo in a plastic bag if you know you will be driving in heavy rain.

  • Availability of a Cargo Carrier Bag to Fit a 60 by 19 inch Cargo Carrier
  • The best fit bag for a 60 inch by 19 inch cargo carrier would be the etrailer Cargo Bag, # e98990. It measures 40 inches by 20 inches by 20 inches high. I have included a link to the installation details and a video review for you. The bag is not waterproof but is weather resistant. It is possible that water could get inside in a very hard rain. Anything you do not want to get wet should be put in plastic bags.

  • Recommended Cargo Carrier for a Nissan Juke and Class I Hitch
  • The ThuleEnclosed Cargo Carrier you reference, part # TH665C, is meant to be used with a Class II hitch, which typically has a 3500 lb towing and 300 lb tongue weight capacity. Your Nissan Juke uses a Class I hitch, that you referenced which has a 2,000 lbs towing and 200 lbs tongue weight capacity. The hitch and the frame members where it attaches to the vehicle lack the strength to safely use that carrier. I recommend using a Class I compatible carrier like the Curt 20x48 Cargo Carrier...

  • Can Larger Cargo Bag Than Hitch Cargo Carrier Platform Fit Without Issue
  • You can use a larger than needed cargo bag on a cargo carrier like what you mentioned. Basically you'd have more cargo room available than needed but as long as you secure the bag down well it won't be an issue at all. You can use a cargo net like the part # C18200 which will easily keep the excess bag and cargo secured. Basically you'll just stretch the net over the bag and it will hold everything in place. I attached a review video for this net for you to check out as well.

  • What is the Overall Height of the etrailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier Cargo Bag # 988501
  • The 24 inch height of the cargo carrier bag # 988501 is the overall height but given that the bag is flexible I do not think you would have any issues getting a 23-1/3 inch tall item to fit. This bag is considered weatherproof, not waterproof, so given enough hard rain the contents could get a little wet. Going with an additional tarp over it like # EM56999 would help quite a bit, especially with electronics in the bag.

  • Inside Dimensions of Reese Cargo Carrier for 2 Inch Hitches
  • The "24 x 60" you are referring to are the inside dimensions of the Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # 63153. It measures 60" long x 24" wide on the inside of the carrier and 61-1/2" long x 25-1/2" wide on the outside of the carrier. This has a robust 500 lb weight capacity and it's shank has a 2-1/2" rise which means you get optimal ground clearance. In order to secure it to your hitch you will need the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63232. And if the cargo you are carrying...

  • How Much Weight Can Be Carried on Hitch Cargo Carrier on 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  • From your purchase records I see that you have purchased the Draw-Tite Sportframe Class I Trailer Hitch 24833 is designed to fit your 2007 Pontiac Solstice and is no longer available. The trailer hitch has a Class I tongue weight rating of 200 pounds. Since Pontiac determined that your vehicle is not designed to tow a trailer, there is no stated maximum tongue weight capacity for your Solstice in the owner's manual and any weight carried on the hitch will be carried at your own risk....

  • What are the Dimensions of the 15 Cu Ft Curt Cargo Bag # C18211
  • The Curt Cargo Bag # C18211 that you referenced measures 56" long x 22" wide x 21" tall. It fits hitch mount cargo carriers that are at least 56" long x 22" wide. If you don't already have one then I recommend going with the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18151 which fits a 2" hitch receiver and measures 59" long x 24" wide and can hold up to 500 lbs of weight. Please note that you will need to check the Tongue Weight (TW) capacity of your trailer hitch receiver and your vehicle to make sure...

  • Golf Bag Capacity of the Yakima Exo Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier
  • Based on the dimension of the inside of the Yakima EXO Cargo Carrier, # Y62VR, 51-11/16" long x 17-1/2" wide x 14-9/16" tall, I would venture to say that 2 golf bags full of clubs at most would fit. You can compare the dimensions of your bags and clubs with these dimensions to see how much you will be able to load inside. If you need to carry more than two, I have a solution. Take a look at the Yakima EXO with 2 enclosed cargo carriers # Y74ZR! I have included a link to the installation...

  • Can Viking Solutions Stack Rack II be Used for Golf Bags
  • The Viking Solutions Stack Rack II # 310-VSR201 could potentially be used to carry golf bags. The lower cargo carrier piece measures 32-5/8" x 17-5/8" on the inside and then the top piece measures 29-1/2" x 14-3/4" on the inside. If you measure your cargo bag(s) you should be able to tell if this will work for that application or not. I will say since this only has 2 bars at the bottom you'll need to make sure the bags aren't moving at all so they don't fall through the bottom. If that...

  • Can Side Panels be Added to 24x60 Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier
  • The 6" height of the rails (5-1/2" on the inside) for the 24x60 hitch cargo carriers, like the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18152, is a standard height and none of them have a side panel add-on to increase the height of the rails. If you're looking for a way to contain some cargo inside this carrier then you might be interested in the etrailer Cargo Bag w/ Mounting Straps # 988501. Aside from this you might be interested in the 23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier # M2200. This isn't as wide as...

  • Cargo Carrier Options for 2015 Toyota Highlander with Panoramic Sunroof and Factory Roof Rack
  • Panoramic sunroofs and other such glass structures built into a vehicle roof are not designed to carry weight. Your Highlander owner's manual should indicate what the roof weight capacity is, and chances are that it also says not to place any cargo at all on top of the panoramic sunroof. If this is the case, your options are to install a metal roof basket or ABS plastic cargo box on the existing crossbars, or to use a 2-inch hitch-mount cargo carrier like # C18151 along with a weatherproof...

  • Recommended Swinging Arm Cargo Carriers to Carry a Propane Tank 18-Inches Tall
  • The dimensions you provided are correct, but we don't currently offer a enclosed cargo carrier where the inside height dimension of the pod is 18-inches or more. The Yakima cargo carrier we currently offer is # Y62VR. It is 14-9/1 inches tall inside the pod, laying the propane tank on its side could be an option, although it would decrease the amount of cargo you can transport. If you keep the propane upright within the pod the cargo carrier may not close properly. An option to consider...

  • How Long are the Straps on etrailer Cargo Bag Mounting Straps 988501
  • I went out to the warehouse to measure and the straps on the etrailer cargo bag # 988501 are each approximately 60 inches long. There are 6 straps and 6 tie down points on top of the bag so the straps don't have to go all the way around the bag just from the mounting points on the bag to the nearest rail on your cargo carrier. I have linked a video review of this cargo bag for you.
