Trash(aroo)

For the offroaders, what do you guys use for trash storage on the trail? Black trash bags don't last and I end up with liquid/beer and junk all over the truck bed.
I saw @osidepunker using a Trasharoo on the last Mohave trip report, would you recommend it?

Been using a collapsible trashcan with black bags, which works great until you hit the trail again or even worse....head home at 80mph.

Thanks guys

 

Trasharoo. Works great. My favorite part about it is that you can just fold it out and hose it off. It’s also got drain holes in it, should you get any fluid in it.

 

Fire and bullets. I don't take anything I can't burn or shoot into oblivion.

 

I HATE the damn trasharoo! You can't put any bottles in it or they get destroyed and tear up the bag (I don't bring bottles, but other people do and they end up in my bag). Every time you open it you get a big cloud of dust in your face and dirt up to your elbows. The plastic clips on the straps are garbage and the fabric fades quick in the sun.

With that said, I can't think of any other way to store trash. I used to just throw everything in the bed and clean it up when I got home, but trash tends to fall out of my shock holes in the bed and it sucks having to pick through your whole bed gathering trash. Keeping it in the bed would make it less dirty/dusty, but I don't really have room anywhere in the bed. It's pretty cheap so I'll just replace it when it gets all fckd up.

 

We use to use a dedicated cooler for trash, an old of course.

 

Thanks for the input guys. It sounds like the Trasharoo is the best option out there currently, but could use some updates.
For the price, it's the way to go...for now.

 

BA looking truck

Is it my imagination or is your bumper bent?

 

A lot of the guys I wheel with in S. Utah use mesh fabric trash bags and they seem to work well. I just put my trash in Alex's trasharoo and works great for me.

 

If I ever find out who put a bottle in mine on the last trip they're gonna get a foot in the ass

 

Haha - SGU is environmentally friendly no glass on the trail. Had to be a mole

 

doesn't the trasharoo rub onto the bed when loaded ? I mean it's fine if over a tire like the Jeep guys.
I just carry the trash in my bed and unload at the first gas station pit stop.

 

yeah it rubs the paint, but it doesn't really bother me...

 

LOL..yeah you are at the point of no return now

 

This is what I use for trash. I don't have a picture so I googled an image. It's an old SeaLine boundary waters duffle bag. I just turn it inside out and hose it off to clean it. I haven't tried hanging it from the tailgate but it should be easy enough to rig it with the backpack straps to hang it. It's waterproof, open top and totally sealable.

 

Colors on the bag have nothing to do with your choice?? LOL

 

LOL... didn't even think of that.

 

Thanks for the comments, but Nah, it’s fuuuuuuuucked........!

 

Wrong color, but it'll end up looking like shit after the first trail run anyway. A lot bigger than I thought too
Thanks for the input! Seems like I may need to customize the straps to fit the tailgate...did you guys just cinch the hell out of them or cut and customize?

 

I also use a dry-bag instead of a Trasheroo. And the grey perfectly matches my Cement Tundra!!
Only $25 (Went up to $30 now)

Some over-landing folks use another product called Ghost Wild Truck Ruck. More expensive, but they claim it lasts longer than the Trasharoo.

 

I have a trasharoo but I just throw my crap in everyone else's beds.
