American Made Premium Dual Can Receiver Garbage Hauling Hitch - by Garbage Commander

Great for getting our two trash cans down our gravel road to the pickup point. Like others I did not like the pins that came with it. They were a pain to put in and take out. If you do decide to purchase the Trash Commander, do yourself a favor and pick up a couple of these rachet clamps at your local hardware store for a few bucks. The clamps make things a whole lot easier and faster.

assembly instructions aren't very well done but once you get it figured out its super easy to use. 2 cans side by side or 1 can in the middle. If your using a yard tractor with a 3point hitch keep it lowered down some, works better putting the trash cans on and off actually. Oh, the top cross beam doesn't mesh against the vertical beam, there's some space there allowing it to swivel in turns so don't panic during assembly. Wifey-Poo has actually volunteered to run the garbage up and down our steep driveway it's that easy.

We have enjoyed the product, but after a few years it is starting to warp and bend. Also, after about a year we had to replace the bolts because they started to rust out. Make sure that it isn’t exposed to any inclement conditions. We’re going to buy another, but wish it didn’t have these issues (hence the 4 star review).

The product itself is self explanatory. It does exactly what it says it does. It saves me from dragging two barrels almost 1/2 mile down the lane each week. It's built solid. It took me about 30 minutes to assemble. It goes on and off the truck hitch easily. What should sell you on this product is the customer service after the sale. I contacted them right after purchasing it to get the adapter for my type of barrel. Easy enough, they sent it along. A month or so after purchasing this, I lost two of the PT clips. I contacted them to see how to order replacements. All they asked for was my previous order number and they shipped two more out to me, no questions asked. Now, I know the parts are only a couple of bucks at the local hardware, but I wanted to be sure I got the right size and such, so I contacted them directly. I didn't expect them to send them right out. I received them about 2 days later. That's service. Some companies would charge you for the part, for the shipping and handling, make you write a novel as to why you need the replacement part, etc. Not these guys. You can buy an item similar to this at other sellers or sites, but you probably won't get this level of service after the sale if you did! That counts for more than anything in my book!

Assembled easy and works as expected. Appears to be built well enough and should get a lot of use. If you are using a 7/16 wrench and socket, you will have this together in minutes.

I have had this product for almost a year now.This thing is very sturdy and heavy duty. It will pull two of the standard size wheel cans that your trash company provides at a time even loaded full with pretty heavy stuff. I think short of filling your cans with lead shavings or something you should not have any issues with weight.My drive is about 1000 feet long and just gravel. I have very little elevation change so I can’t speak to how well hills are handled.The arms that pull the can are adjustable if your cans are bigger or smaller. Note that the cans pretty much need to be the style of can with the wheels and the two bars style pull handleYou can pull one can at a time as well, you’ll just want to use the two center hooks instead of the outer ones.Some have complained about the arm swinging around when the cans are not evenly weighted, I would say I have not experienced this issue myself, I have had a nearly empty can and a full can together and not had an issue. I wouldn’t say it’s impossible but you would have to have a very huge weight difference.The one thing I will echo in the product description is do not ever back up even a little bit with cans attached. This is for forward pull only. If you reverse it immediately starts pushing the cans upright which applies pressure up towards the arm. If you keep going it will break the device and the cans will go under the vehicle. If you need to reverse for any reason you will have to stop, unhook the cans and get turned around before hooking the cans up again.All in all a very sturdy product that works well

The media could not be loaded. Our driveway is about half a mile long. Walking to cans to the road was rough so we would usually lift them into our 4x4. But that was killing our backs too. This thing comes in major handy for us. It’s quality material, easy to take on and off of the 4x4. Also easy to just leave on. Putting it together was a little bit harder for me to figure out but I found a video on YouTube for it and that helped.

We purchased this item due to our trash company informing us that they would no longer pick up at our driveway. We have about a .3 mile haul each way on a very well maintained dirt road. Since purchasing the device has warped and twisted and is essentially falling apart. The construction materials for this item are VERY cheap. I have twisted the metal back into shape several times with my bare hands. I wish this device was built better, the concept is good, it works for the most part.I have had this less than 6 months and it is about to be put into the trash.
