Five Star Aluminum Cargo Carrier | 2" Hitch Mount Hauler | 500 lb Capacity

More stuff than the car will hold? A sloppy, drippy, or smelly load you'd rather keep out of the SUV? The Five Star cargo carrier slips into a standard 2-inch hitch receiver and hauls up to 500 lb at a convenient height for loading and unloading—so the muddy cooler, the firewood, or the extra gear rides outside the cabin.

A 3-inch lip runs around the tray to trap the load, and the expanded aluminum mesh floor lets water and debris pass straight through instead of pooling. The mesh also gives you multiple tie-down points across the tray, so odd-shaped loads stay put.

Built from tempered aluminum, the carrier resists the rust and corrosion that affect steel haulers in wet and outdoor conditions, and it's light enough to mount and remove by hand. Like every Five Star product, it's MIG welded by Five Star Manufacturing's certified welders in Crane, Missouri, where the company has built aluminum products in the USA since 1984.

Why choose this cargo carrier

  • Fits a standard 2-inch hitch receiver
  • 500 lb total load capacity
  • 3-inch lip traps the load on all sides
  • Expanded aluminum mesh floor drains water and debris and adds tie-down points
  • Lightweight, rust- and corrosion-resistant aluminum
  • Compatible with the 524ACC-MA Motorcycle Adaptor to haul dirt bikes and other two-wheel toys (adaptor sold separately)
  • Made in the USA

Two mounting options

Choose the tongue style that fits how you store and ship:

  • 524ACC – Welded Tongue: one-piece welded construction with a fixed hitch tube. Simple and solid, with nothing to assemble.
  • 524ACCU – Bolt-In Tongue: removable hitch tube that bolts on, so the carrier packs down smaller for shipping and storage.
