Recommended Options To Securely Lock Cargo To 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2 Hitches
Question:
Hello eTrailer Experts - I purchased a etrailer Cargo Carrier Item# e988743 two days ago and realized items that I store on the carrier may not be theft proof. Does eTrailer have a enclosed box or other solution that will fit on e98874to keep the items secure? I would use cables and locks to secure the box. Or is there another product that I should have purchased?

For an option to use with your etrailer Cargo Carrier, # e98874, I recommend using an enclosed box like the DeeZee Specialty Series Storage Box - Chest Style - Poly Plastic - 3.6 Cu Ft - Black, # DZ6535P. This box is 35" long x 14" wide x 13" tall, and will require locks like the Master Lock Padlock, # ML1KA, along with a cable lock or permanent mounting solution.
Another option is the etrailer Cargo Bag w/ Mounting Straps - Weatherproof - 20 cu ft - 59" x 24" x 24", # 988501, that can be secured with the Master Lock Covered, Solid Body Padlock - 3/16" Diameter Shackle, # 131D and a cable lock like our 10' Long Cable Lock, # e98891.
We also have enclosed Cargo Carriers like the Rola Tilting Enclosed Cargo Carrier for 2" Trailer Hitches, # 59110. This is a locking trunk that attaches to the cargo base so you can load and unload your gear in one location and then lock it into place for transporting. I've attached a link to all of our enclosed hitch mounted cargo carrier options. If you have a roof rack, you may also consider a roof box like the Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - AeroSkin Black, # TH6357B. I've linked the roof box page for you as well.
