High Weight Rated Folding Cargo Carrier Recommendation
Question:
What is the folding hitch carrier that can handle a heavy load the best? I will be carrying 3-400lb loads on rough, steep dirt roads. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
All of our cargo carriers are rated for a certain amount of weight carried on paved roads. When you introduce rough back roads or trails that would be significantly rougher than what most travel on the capacity for the carriers becomes less defined.
The highest rated folding cargo carrier we offer that folds would be the etrailer brand Cargo Carrier part # e98874 which has a 500 lb capacity. If you are only planning to carry around 300 lbs and take it very easy on the rough roads you would most likely be fine, but I can't guarantee that.
