BagMate 20ft³ waterproof hitch cargo carrier bag
Got a family trip coming up or a weekend away and don’t fancy taking half the garage with you? The BagMate 20ft³ (566 L) hitch-mounted cargo bag gives you room to breathe — and keeps everything bone-dry. Made from tough 600D PVC tarpaulin with heat-welded and stitched seams plus a double waterproof zip, it’s built for proper British weather, whether it’s drizzle or it’s absolutely bucketing down.
Features
- Triple waterproofing – three layers of protection: waterproof fabric, heat-welded and stitched seams, plus a double waterproof zipper for extra peace of mind.
- Generous capacity – 20ft³ (566 litres) with external dimensions of 152.4 x 60.96 x 60.96 cm, perfect for suitcases, camping kit or bulky shopping.
- Heavy-duty fixing system – eight tear-proof straps with sturdy buckles to keep the bag firmly attached to a hitch-mounted rack.
- Security and storage – comes with a 4-digit combination lock and a handy storage bag so the carrier folds away neatly when not in use.
- Lightweight and practical – weighs just 4.6 kg and folds down compact for easy stowing in the garage or boot.
How it fits
Designed to sit on standard hitch/towbar luggage baskets, the straps simply loop through the rack and clip down quick as you like. Installation’s straightforward and usually takes under five minutes — no faffing about with complicated fittings. It’s a universal-fit approach, but if your hitch basket is an odd-shaped one, give the strap alignment a quick check before you load it up.
Use cases
- Family holidays and weekends – frees up boot space and keeps muddy boots or wet tents out of the interior.
- Camping and festivals – keeps kit dry overnight, even if the heavens open.
- DIY and garden runs – haul bulky or dirty items without filling the boot or the back seat.
Technical details and notes
Model: RBM-HBL-001. Manufacturer: BagMate. Volume: 566 L / 20 ft³. Dimensions: 152.4 x 60.96 x 60.96 cm. Weight: 4.6 kg. Material: 600D PVC tarpaulin. Mounting: hitch mount. Shell type: soft. The bag is tough, but a bit of care goes a long way — rinse off salt and heavy mud after coastal trips, let it dry fully before folding, and pop it in the included storage bag.
One quick heads-up: the bag adds load to your hitch rack, so check your towbar/rack and vehicle load limits before piling it high. If you’re unsure, your vehicle handbook will have the numbers. Otherwise, it’s a simple, low-fuss way to carry more kit and keep it dry.
