Trash carrier option

[PapaRoop]

Hi,

Are there any recommendations for something better than a trasharoo? I heard the trasharoo is not that great, and I want something that will last after being banged up.

 

[pcstockton]

There is nothing better for the price. If I was to get another I would get the Blue Ridge Overland bag. The ARB bag is a no-go with its mesh bottom. What is not to like about a Trasharoo!?!?

I heard they don't last and tear up easily

NAPA has the MaxTrax line, they have a trash bag that is very will made, I've had one fr a year now, looks like new. It was $20 on sale.

Thank you, I will check them out.

I just have a Home Depot bucket with a lid bungeed to the hooks in my truck bed

I do have a Rhino USA trash carrier but I haven’t used it yet as there’s no place to mount to a JT without a tire carrier or rack

Rack is coming…

I have a JT as well and just ride with a trash back in the bed for the reasons you mentioned.

Big price but a lifetime warranty......

I don't have my spare tire on the back of my Tacoma, so my trash can is a Home Depot, 5gl bucket with a lid.

Adventure Trail Gear, hands down. Their chainsaw bag is AWESOME too. IMHO the prices are very fair, and the owner responds to email nearly instantly. I'm not affiliated in any way, but if you go with them mention TJ recommended them, I plan to buy more stuff from them soon lol...

we use the plastic walmart bags and hook them on a door handle and fill them when cooking and cleaning up camp and then tie them off and put them in a contractor trash bag for durable storage until we find a trash can. i get using the trasharoo and seabags and stuff, but seems like a material bag will get garbage juice all in it and stink. with the 3 ply contractor trash bag, its totally water and vapor proof, meaning it wont stink as long as the top is tied shut and then the whole thing goes in the dumpster when we get back to a populated area. i have seabags from the navy and even some rugged dive gear bags i used offshore and i really rather go with the heavy duty trash bags
they also stow real easy if you just take a few of them and stick them behind a seat or under a seat, etc

I haven’t needed to use it as such yet, but I carry my old seabag to use. Route the shoulder straps thru the spare tire (Jeep jk).
The lining has turned rancid, so it’s not much good for anything else.

A tidbit I leaned from the LLOD ewetube channel is to keep the trash bag in a drybag. Trashbags seem to leak more than not, so this helps tremendously when the bag is inside the vehicle.

Now this makes a lot of sense. I’m in on your method. Thanks.

+1 for this and @OldManJack’s simple and cost effective system.
The Trasheroo style carriers are okay until you’re camping in bear country, where failing to properly store any fragrant items may attract unwelcome visitors. If you use one, move it into your vehicle at night or when away from your site.
Thanks to everyone who pack out their trash!

I have an Oscar's Mobile Hideout Bag attached to my tailgate on the Ranger, no spare tire on the rear either. I have used the bag here in Australia and through the snow and bulldust I cant fault it, also holds 30kg of wood nicely.

 

[KrelleKryl]

+1 for the Oscar's Mobile Hideout Bag. Spendy, but it's indestructible and I like that you can fully open it up from the front - lots of space too. I run it without a tire, so don't know if it's better or worse than other bags to attach to a tire.

For those with a Trasheroo or thinking of one, I filled mine with a 27 litre plastic waste can to make it a bit more useable.

I tore a big hole in my trasheroo, getting one of these to replace it. Loads of different options.

I use one of their basic load out bags for my tire chains, it's very well made.

I agree. Their products are very well made. I have ATG's 5 lb. propane tank bag and it's tough. Nice guy to deal with too.

I heard they don't last and tear up easily

I have had mine for 3 years. I regularly leave it on after trips due to laziness. So it has seen a ton of UV.

Not single loose thread, or tears in any way. They are VERY durable.

I have packed it full of firewood to well over the 50lb limit many, many times.

If I was to get anything else in the future, it would be the Blue Ridge Overland all day long!
