Holds more than just straps - my complete recovery station
Expectations & Purchase Reason I keep my recovery gear in the back of my 2020 Jeep Wrangler JLU at all times, so I needed a storage solution that was tough enough to live there permanently. I wanted something that could consolidate everything into one "grab-and-go" kit rather than having loose items rolling around the cargo area. Capacity & Loadout The "Large" size is serious about space. I have managed to fit almost every piece of recovery gear I own into this bag. The main compartment easily handles my heavy kinetic rope and tree saver. What I really appreciate are the side compartments—they are perfect for storing my winch controller and a portable jump starter. It keeps the electronics separate from the dirty straps but still in the same package. Build Quality & Stability The cotton canvas construction is excellent and feels very rugged. The coated bottom is a smart feature for keeping moisture out when you set it down on the trail. Despite being a taller bag, I have had zero issues with it tipping over. It sits securely in the back of the Jeep even during daily driving and cornering. Pros • Incredible storage capacity; fits ropes, tree savers, and hardware easily. • Side pockets are functional and large enough for jump starters or winch controllers. • Heavy-duty canvas material withstands abrasion. • Stays upright and stable in the vehicle cargo area. Cons • The internal dividers are sewn in place, so you cannot adjust the main compartment layout if you have odd-shaped gear. Verdict This bag transformed my trunk organization. It is not just a bag for straps; it is a full recovery station that protects your expensive gear. If you want to keep your winch controller, jump pack, and ropes all in one durable spot, this is the one to get.

Incredible Recovery Bag
The ARB carrying bag is the best; it's resistant to water, mud, and serious abuse. All the recovery equipment fits perfectly, and it's super portable.

Good but kinda too heavy when full.
Seems fairly well made and is a good size. Since it is mildly tall it needs to be secured in the back of an SUV else it has a tendency to fall over when turning. Maybe on the next version of this the company can make it so the dividers can be moved using Velcro or something to help keep the larger items more secure instead of having to pack stuff around them to fill up the space in the existing sections. Overall a good purchase.

I didn’t have enough time to grab my recovery bag line of fire
This was a great deal. I have everything packed up put into it. I made sure it was heavy duty and easy to use with different compartments in the back of my SUV or I show you a picture. It’s well worth the price I used to get some ARD something,. This looks even better.

This ARB Recovery back was perfe t for me. Big strong zippers, very thick material, strong handle, and a tough shoulder strap with metal ends. It fit one 20' tow strap, one 20' kinetic tow rope, two 6' tree straps, a snatch block, 3 soft shackles, four crevices, and two hooks. And a soft case with 4 ratchet tie down straps no problem. It weighs atleast 50 pounds now and not the slightest bit concerned about the handle breaking. Or the strap. Great quality.
