A kayak can be transported on a small car using various methods, including a trailer, roof rack, pool noodles, foam blocks, or putting it inside the car. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages in terms of ease of use, cost, safety, and legal regulations. A step-by-step guide can help you transport a kayak safely on a small car.
To carry a kayak, two people should hold a grab handle and lift it. If you’re alone, you can put the kayak onto a shoulder. If done incorrectly, you risk damaging the kayak and posing a hazard to others on the road.
Reliable methods for transporting a kayak without a roof rack include using pool noodles for padding and ratchet straps for a tie. Foam blocks, cam straps, and tie-down rope are some of the safest ways to transport a kayak without a roof rack. These methods are perfect for short, local trips and ensure smooth and easy transportation of your kayak.

I know it’s been awhile since this article was made. But how did it ride? I have a mk4 golf with racks. My truck was stolen about six months ago. Long story but they got my truck a box trailer and five motorcycles. It was on the news. So I’m kinda strapped for money on a new truck. I have a 13 ft old town. And it’s really depressing not being able to take it out. I’m to the point I’m going to take it out on my vw. I have about a 30 min drive to move it to where I want to go. I was wondering how it would ride and handle. I hope you can answer and give me advice. Thank you!
