I’ve had my Spare Tire Bag from Adventure Trail Gear mounted to the spare tire on the back of my expedition trailer, used hard, since May 2018.
It has been on my trailer spare, exposed to all weather and road conditions every single day since May 2018. That’s going on three years as of the update to this review, and well over 40,000 miles of every kind of road and environment and weather one can imagine; from the salty coast of Maine to the Smoky mountains of East Tennessee; from the swamps and bayous of southern Louisiana to the wild humidity and salt air of the Gulf of Mexico; and the biggest test, the raw and unfiltered sun and rugged trails of seventeen weeks straight of desert borderland in far West Texas.
I stay out for months at a time and like gear I can depend on without worry. I put the Spare Tire Bag on my trailer spare the day after I got it almost three years ago and have never had to adjust it once. Seriously.
I load it with all kinds of stuff, depending on need, though it usually holds returnables on one side and non-food waste trash on the other. The Spare Tire Bags ATG now makes are one large interior pocket. I’ve kept full gallons of spring water in the bottom and hauled firewood with it.
I keep gloves and trash bags in the pockets. I like that it has several places to stash things. I love that it has built-in D-rings for attaching the corners of trash bags to keep them open. Instead of tying the bags to the corners, I use small stick toggles like one might on a corner of a tarp or rainfly.

Of all the vendors I’ve dealt with peddling new products, I have to say both Adventure Trail Gear and NBX Expedition have been great; in design, communication and response time, and high quality of product.
#noaffiliation, #notsponsored – I just love the product, paid full price when they first started producing these, and believe in these guys.
It’s a great bit of kit.
I keep gallon jugs under the bag on one side and fill the other side with returnables/recyclables. Each side will hold two fifteen pack boxes of 12oz cans side by side, two tall.


They have it in a range of colors.
Here’s an image I took in Aug 2019, after it being in the weather and on the road all over the United States for fifteen months:

I should have done that this past spring.
