Hitch Carriers FAQ

General Compatibility & Installation

A: The hitch stabilizer minimizes wobbling and movement, while the hitch lock prevents theft by securing the carrier to the vehicle.

Q: Will dual exhaust pose a fire hazard?

A: It may partially obstruct visibility depending on your vehicle and the cargo being carried. Always check after installation and adjust if needed.

Easy to install,lock and use. We used this to drive from Cali to South Carolina with rain and some snow. Worked great we had to open and close a few time to get stuff in and out on day 8 one of the zippers broke which was a little disappointing but not a deal breaker at all absolutely would buy again

I have three different products from this company and I've come to trust them with good reason,these cargo bags are strong ,they have multiple options and included accessories to mount them but roof rails will work the best ,we have two sizes one for our Lexus and one for our Escalade and they are a very well made thick material ,we have packed enough in these bags to go away for weeks and we are a family of five ,the best part of these cargo bags is that when your done they roll up into a nice tight provided case and take up a small spot in your garage and that's a big plus because the hard cases are so big they will take up to much room in the garage to where a car can't occupy the same space as the cargo carrier

This carrier is extremely large-you can't really appreciate it until you unroll it from the storage bag. It comes with everything you need to securely attach it to your vehicle: 3 buckle and 3 ratchet straps, plus 6 door and 2 trunk hooks. I appreciate the included pad, which protects the roof and helps prevent slipping and the lock is also a nice addition.The overall quality is excellent. The vinyl is thick, the straps are strong, and the flap over the zipper is large and securely held in place with wide Velcro. Although it does come with a storage bag, I found it too difficult to fold it back in. Instead, I used a plastic tote, and it worked perfectly.This carrier will be shared among family members, so its universal fit for vehicles with crossbars, side rails, roof racks, or a bare roof makes it a versatile and fantastic investment. Overall, it's a very impressive and well-designed product.

This was everything I hoped for and more. I purchased the largest size and it far exceeded the roof top of my 2017 Jeep Trailhawk. It is made out of very durable material with quality zippers and velcro to ensure your things dont get wet. There were more than enough tie down straps and the matt provided made sure my car didn't get scratched. Well worth the money.

This is a whole kit with a huge bag to be the extra storage and the straps and hooks to make this work. The only problem is that my car doesn't have a roof rack, so I'm still paranoid to use it until I figure a safe protection. Having moved long distances a couple times, I really wish I had one of these.

This rooftop cargo bag is ginormous! It's probably best suited to a full size SUV, but we made out fine using it on a minivan. It held luggage for 5 people plus some pet supplies, and we had tons of room to spare. It was actually oversize for our needs, so keep that in mind. We came nowhere near maxing out the available height of the bag, and realized that careful placement of the contents and straps should be considered so that it doesn't look like it's your mother-in-law strapped to the roof! We drove about 1000 miles each way through all kinds of weather including heavy rain, and all of our contents were dry and safe. The bag is very heavy duty with a rubberized coating, and the zippers are fully covered by flaps secured with Velcro to keep it weathertight.

This cargo bag has been a great choice so far. It can hold one large suitcase, two carry-on sizes, and a duffle bag.

My Family of 6 went on a trip to Texas with a packed van. Before we left Texas we acquired so much more stuff that we decided to to purchase Mockins Waterproof Cargo Roof Bag Set. I liked that it came with a mat to help protect my van's finish. We traveled 655 miles with the Mockins Cargo bag on top our vehicle. We went though 3 rains storms in Oklahoma. When we arrived to our destination our suitcases and other items were safe and secure. Nothing was damaged or wet. The Cargo Bag kept everything safe and dry. My van doesn't have rails on top, but installation was a breeze. Installation instructions or suggestions would have been nice, but installation is pretty straight forward. The bag seems to have great construction and very dutiable. For me, this was a purchase that I intended to use over and over again and I believe this Cargo Bag will be around for a while. I'd recommended this product to anyone looking for extra storage while traveling.

Ok, so there's a whole story with this:I got it to drive (move) from Florida to California. The bag itself is amazing. It's weatherproof waterproof and stayed on my car the whole trip. I didn't even take it off at night because it was literally so heavy, myself plus four other people couldn't lift it. So it weathered everything. The only problem is with the straps going through your car when it rains because it drips down the straps into the car. When that happened I got DampRid and baking soda and it dried up everything and didn't even smell. Everything turned out fine but just know if it rains with this thing on your car. That means it is raining in your car.

We ordered this bag for our trip to PCB this yr because we had ran out of room in the car from the addition of our newborn. The trip down was nice weather and the bag had no issues. We used the ratchet straps to secure it to the roof rails. The trip back was the true test being we had been evacuated because of hurricane Michael. The bag withstood strong winds and random rainstorms without any issues. Our luggage was dry and secure once we arrived home in Tn. I would recommend this roof bag to anyone.

This rooftop carrier was purchased for a camping trip. I didn't want it to cost a lot so I decided to give this one a shot. It contained 6 camping chairs, 2 tents for two and one tent for four, a folding chair, 4 camping pads and a few sleeping bags. We traveled approximately 3 hours each way on I-5 and stayed within the speed limit. I did hear some noises, but this is normal at 65-70 MPH. To avoid any slack in my carrier, I filled it as full as possible. Nothing was damaged or frayed. It still looks brand new. It was exposed to sun and sun, so I cannot attest to its waterproofness. However, I have no problem trying it out when it rains this winter.

We traveled across the country with this in rain and snow and it did not leak.

It takes a while to set up, but it works great. This bag was used for a 7-hour road trip at 70+ mph, with heavy rains and heavy driving. There were no leaks or damages. It folds up easily and can be stored away.

This worked like a champ! Highly recommend! It worked best for me inside a roof mounted basket.Had zero problems, kept my extra baggage safe and dry while making a 5 day cross country move from California to Virginia.

This bag was very reliable. It was a great bag. First, it didn't move on my roof. There was no slipping or sliding. Second, it was quiet when I traveled over 500 miles. My last roof bag was very loud. Third, it rained hard from Pennsylvania up to Newport News Virginia but everything remained dry inside. The zipper covers are velcro-down and of good quality. This bag is highly recommended. The fit was perfect for my Jeep Grand Cherokee.

You kept all your luggage safe, even during a storm

This product was great. It kept our luggage dry and safe throughout the 16-hour drive. The only problem with the entire setup is the fact that you have to attach your luggage to your car without a roof rack. If it rains, it drips down your car's straps and soaks your seats. This was something we learned the hard way. It worked wonderfully and we will be using it again.

This bag was used to move from Washington to Tennessee. There was a little water in the bag after a storm. The bag did shift slightly when items were placed in the back. It looked exactly the same as it did when it was first opened. No tips. No tears. 100% recommend this product.

Impressive amount of storage. Was able to fit three medium-large storage bins and backpack. Very helpful

I needed extra storage for family camping trips,but didn't want to buy an expensive hard shell roof storage. This product provided exactly what i needed for a fraction of the cost. The day we left for our first trip it of course rained so we got to test out how waterproof the product really was. The contents of the storage bag stayed completely dry the product claimed. The bag is also very well made with heavy-duty materials. I had to get creative with the straps since I don't have a roof rack, but it still no complaints.

It was a great product! It was simple to use and pack. We loved the Velcro to hide the zipper. It is difficult to zip the corners, so take your time.
