Standard Gear Racks for Your Aspen Adventure

When your planning a trip to Aspen the last thing you want is to worry about how your gonna carry your skis or bikes. Most regular rental car companies make you pay extra for a rack or even worse they tell you they have one and then run out when you get to the counter. That is super frustrating and it starts the trip off on a bad note which nobody wants. At Winter Wagon we do things different because we know that if you are coming to Colorado you probably have gear to haul.

We believe that racks and roof boxes should come standard. It just makes sence. You shouldn’t have to jam your snowboard in the back seat or try to fit skis through the middle trunk pass through while poking your passengers in the elbow. All of our vehicles are setup to handle the mountain lifestyle right from the get go.

Here is a quick breakdown of what we can set up for your vehicle depending on the season and what you need.

• Roof Boxes - These are great for extra luggage or snowboards and skis that you want to keep enclosed and out of the road salt.
• Ski Racks - The classic clamp style that is easy to use and holds multiple pairs of skis or boards securely on the roof.
• Bike Racks - If your visiting in the summer we have hitch mounted or roof mounted options for your mountain or road bikes.

We want to make sure you have the best cargo box for the job so you aren’t stressing about space. A lot of people ask us if there is an extra fee for this and the answer is no. We customize the rack setup based on what your telling us you need for the trip. If you need a box for luggage we put that on. If you need a rack for four pairs of skis we put that on.

It is important to let us know before you arrive though. Since we prep the car specifically for you it helps us to know if you are bringing bikes or skis so we can have the right attachment ready. This way you can just land at the airport grab your car and get on the road without messing around with straps and clips in the parking lot.

Driving in Aspen can be tricky in the winter so having your gear secure on the roof helps keep the inside of the car comfortable for everyone. You dont want wet gear dripping on the upholstery or fogging up the windows. By using a roof rack properly you save room inside for snacks and people.

We also check all the equipment frequently to make sure it is working right. There is nothing worse then a rusty key lock that wont turn when its freezing outside. We maintain our gear so you dont have to struggle with it. Whether its a box or a ski rack we ensure it locks and opens smoothly.

If you are planning a summer trip the biking in Aspen is world class. We have racks that can hold heavy mountain bikes or lighter road bikes. Just let us know the count and we will get the vehicle sorted out. We know that a good bike rack is essential for protecting your expensive bicycles while driving up the mountain passes.

So when you book with Winter Wagon just remember to check the box for what gear you are bringing. We will handle the rest and make sure your rental is ready for whatever adventure your planning. It is just part of the service we offer to make your Aspen trip easier and more fun.
