Can someone recommend a cargo net to secure a stack of small moving boxes in the bed of my 6.5' truck? I already have the flimsy little envelope style for use at the back to keep small things from sliding around.. I'm talking about something larger to go over the top of a large neat stack of boxes protruding above the bed to keep them in the stack. The cargo is small moving boxes weighing 20-25# each.

Ideally it won't be silly expensive because I'll use it rarely and am not hauling irregularly-shaped heavy equipment. I've seen some on Amazon and elsewhere that include carabineers but I'm skeptical about quality. I know those cheap carabineers are really flimsy and assume those nets are, too.

Thanks for your suggestions.

 

 

To close this out, I ended up with Tenaxterra cargo net that I recommend highly. It's pretty cheap ($40) and very strong. It's not a stretchy bungee-cord type net. Instead, it's a web of nylon straps and includes 4 ratchet straps to secure it. The hardware included (carabiners and ratchet straps) is heavy duty. I was surprised by the product quality, actually, especially considering the modest price. Even the storage bag is high quality.

This recommendation is not sponsored. I get no financial benefit from it. I paid for the product myself.

 

Cool. Glad you found something that works for you. This thread reminded me of this thing that we discussed a while ago. Lol.

For securing a stack of moving boxes, go for a heavy-duty cargo net made from polyester or nylon webbing with reinforced edges and solid metal hooks. Brands like Rhino USA or Keeper offer durable options that fit a 6.5’ bed perfectly. Avoid cheap bungee-style nets or flimsy carabiners—they won’t hold up under load. If you’re using it occasionally, pair a mid-range net with ratchet straps for added stability. Always hook into your truck’s tie-down points and pull the net tight to keep everything from shifting during the drive.

 

The product I bought is a heavy-duty cargo net made from nylon webbing with reinforced edges and solid metal hooks that attach by ratchet straps.
