Alternatives

• Plastic tote— Stacks and protects better; awkward to carry far.
• Wheeled duffel— Easier over pavement, heavier and pricier.

Maintenance notes

• Rinse road salt and mud off the base.

Buying considerations

• Backpack straps help on the walk from a distant parking spot.
• A burrito-style full-zip opening beats a top-only zipper.
