Looking for Cargo Net Measuring 8 by 12 Feet for 5 by 10 Foot Trailer

Question:

I have a 5foot x 10foot open trailer that I use to carry furniture, cardboard boxes, etc. I am looking for a cargo net, approximately 8foot X 12foot that I can use to keep the stuff from falling off the trailer, or shifting on the trailer, while in transit. The trailer is designed for golf carts and has an 8inch steel rail around the sides.

The HitchMate StretchWeb Cargo Net, part # HE4256 would be ideal for your application. Its un-stretched dimension is 6 by 12 feet, it would easily stretch to the size you need. Keep in mind, that the net is not intended to secure heavy items. It would work well for the cardboard boxes, as long as they are not very heavy, but for heavier items you would want to use tie down straps like the Erickson # 51333, which are sold individually.

I will link you to our selection of ratchet straps. You will want to choose straps of the proper length that have a Working Load Limit (WLL) equal to or greater than the weight of the items you are wanting to secure.
