Canvas bags that sit on the rear mounted spare wheel.

I have had a look and had no joy finding someone in the UK that sells these. Can anyone help with a link to a UK supplier?

An Aussie firm called Kaymar make 'em, Surrey Off Road are their UK stockists - www.surreyoff-road.com

Ask for the owner Chris Bashall, he'll see you right. Very knowledgeable about all types of 4x4. In fact tell him Tom McGuigan recommended him, he'll be gob-smacked. Knew him well back in the 80's but we haven't spoken/seen each other for years now. Good bloke.

Ashes and sack cloth come to mind.

Doubtless they'll be in the Sales after Christmas!

I thought the sales started mid December these days.

Thanks for the info

Sorry Tom couldnt resist

Hi back again 


I got so fed up with searching for these bloody bags and the one that I did find that was available in the UK looked rubbish and the ones in Australia were all over £100 plus postage and import duty I decided to make CampervanCulture.com UK agents for Trasharoo as they seemed the best out there. So I am happy to say that I have one on my van and its awesome as does my mates Jake and Alan who run CampervanCulture.com with me.

We have them in stock for UK and European delivery in black, green and brown and all the duty has been paid so you wont get stung for that. 

Yours for only £65

The lengths you have to go to sometimes to get decent gear for your overlander is mind boggling...

Nice one! The bag makes perfect sense, ideal for muddy boots/wellies or muddy off-road recovery equipment such as ropes, tree protectors, etc.

Always remember on the Rainforest Challenge of Malaysia that after a lot of coaxing (more like shaming them if truth be known), the Asian teams from Malaysia and Thailand would actually start taking out their rubbish out of the jungle rather than just thowing it into the undergrowth as they had done for years before we Europeans entered their world ... but ... even with good intentions, the thick clear plastic bags they would tie on to the spare wheel would inevitably split on some overhanging bamboo. The result, muggins following would end up stopping to pick up their rubbish as it spewed out on to the track - 1 litre water bottles galore, tin cans, the works!

Trasharoos would have been ideal. Yep, definitely a good product that solves many a problem.

BTW, if you post on a forum that you know won't let you post commercial stuff, simply post ... Spotted this Trasharoo thingy on another forum, thought it was a good idea. What do you reckon?  then add the www.4x4overlandtravel.com/t1374-trasharoo-s-rubbish-storage-bags-that-fit-on-the-spare-wheel-of-your-4x4-for-sale#11886 link back to here - job's a goon 'un!

Well looks like we are trading this year at The Adventure Overland show and we will be taking some Trasharoo's with us for any one to take a look who is interested. We have loads of other stuff from Cargo tracking and fixings to towing gear to hi tec spot lights to Quick Fist kits so feel free to pop by and say Hi.

Best get us a good spot Tom  

Jed

Didn't you know, everywhere is a good spot!  

Super busy at the mo ... I've created a monster!!!

Just back from the Adventure Overland Show and we nearly sold out of these on the first day :shock:  Sold out totally the next day by lunch time and we took payment by card for back orders on loads more.


Looks like our Trasharoo's have now hit the UK and most people love them, we have even been sending them to Dubai. People are now putting them on all their overland set ups including camper vans

Just a heads up for you guys. We are doing free UK postage on orders over £50 so this covers the Trasharoo.

The offer is only until December 8th as we are off overlanding.

hi new on here.. we got our wheel cover of mywayrooftents.co.uk ,its called safari wheel bin but was still around £100,its been on the back for 9months on our latest trip very well made steve/m

Season's greetings Steve/m!   

Sounds as if you paid £35 too much as the Trasharoo is only £65, but if you're happy with it, that's all that counts.
