HOW WE BEAT THE COMPETITION
Hauls 8 Skis, No Roof Required
Bring the whole crew. The Chuck Bucket holds up to 8 pairs of skis or 4 snowboards, or any combination in between — all in one hitch-mounted rack. Ski bag friendly. No roof box, no jamming gear in the back seat, and no second car needed.
Loads in Seconds- Even with Gloves On
Just drop your skis in and go. Designed for quick loading in real winter conditions — even with frozen fingers or ski boots on.
Lightweight. No Rust. Winter Ready.
Made from powder-coated aluminum, the Chuck Bucket is tough enough for winter, but light enough to mount solo. The box-style design shields your gear from slush, spray, and salt while still draining out moisture — so nothing sits and soaks. No rust, no rattling — just bomber gear built for snowy roads.
Tilt For Access
Secure With Straps
Chuck Bucket Questions. Answered.
Fill in the text content of the collapsible item here. You can provide details and explanation for the question here.
Absolutely, especially when you use the provided strap to secure it tightly. Then it won't even budge.
Slide base post into hitch, lock pin, use allen key to tighten antiwobble, mount bucket. See our how to page for a video.
There’s Two-stage tilt lets you access the trunk even when fully loaded.
Requires ≈7" clearance from hitch to door bottom; use extender/dropper if needed. We recommend this one.
Rack security: Use a 5/8" hitch pin lock to secure the hitch post to your vehicle and a 3/8" pin lock to secure your rack or bucket to the post.
Gear security: Add a cable lock (e.g., MasterLock or Kryptonite) through your skis, bikes, or gear for extra protection.
Together, these locks keep everything secure on and off the road.
Depends on hitch class and design; contact us for fit confirmation.
Used. Tested. Loved.
