Built for weekend overlanders and trail cleanup crews who need to haul wet gear and trash outside the cabin to save their interior from smells. Not for pavement-only SUVs — this shop focuses on mounting gear to external spare tires that see heavy vibration.
Curator's pick: Trasharoo Spare Tire Trash Bag
The UV coating on these actually holds up; cheaper knockoffs turn to dust after one summer in the high desert. Just make sure you double-knot the drain hole cord or it'll vibrate loose on the washboards.
⚠ Worth knowing: If you run a rear-view camera integrated into your spare tire hub, these bags will completely block your vision when full. You'll need to rely on your side mirrors or offset the mounting straps, which can cause the bag to sag unevenly.
