Trash Panda Trail Pack™
$325.00 - $470.00
The Trash Panda Trail Pack™ is a purpose-built storage solution designed as part of the STEP 22 AMP Trail System (Adaptive Modular Platform), engineered to solve the problems found in typical “strap-on” tire bags. Its hinged design features a fiber-reinforced rigid base and laser-cut rigid back panel, providing the structure and stability needed for off-road use. When paired with our patented Spare Tire Mount System, the Trash Panda stays put - no sagging, no bouncing, no collapsing, even on rough terrain.
A dual-zipper full front-access panel makes loading and unloading effortless, eliminating the frustration of digging through a deep top-opening bag. The roll-top / fold-top closure and adjustable tension strap system allow multiple configurations depending on your load-out, gear type, or trail conditions.
While optimized for use with STEP 22 Spare Tire Mounting Blocks, the Trash Panda’s laser-cut mounting slots allow secure attachment to campers, trailers, MOLLE panels, or other rigid surfaces. Two side compartments plus inner and outer slim pockets provide smart organization for trash, recovery gear, camp tools, dirty clothes, wet items, and more.
Built with premium materials and overbuilt like every STEP 22 product, the Trash Panda Trail Pack™ offers a stable, adaptable storage solution for trail, field, and vehicle-based setups.

Why Trash Panda?
Learn More
Raccoons - clever, scrappy, and unbothered by a little mess - earned the nickname “Trash Panda” for good reason. Their adaptability and problem-solving instincts inspired the name and design of this rugged trail companion. Just like its namesake, the Trash Panda Trail Pack™ is built to handle whatever you throw at it - or in it.
While raccoons are thriving, their distant cousin, the red panda, faces a very different reality. Habitat loss and human pressure continue to threaten the forests these animals depend on. Through STEP 22 Gear’s conservation commitment and support of the Wildlife Conservation Network, a portion of every Trash Panda sold helps protect critical forest ecosystems and the communities working to preserve them - safeguarding habitat that supports red pandas and countless other species that share the same environment.
Built for the trail, committed to keeping wild places wild.
