Cycling to the Post Office

This morning I took all of our Christmas gifts by bicycle to the post office. There was no way to carry a 18×18x21″ box on my rear rack, so I used the trailer. Hiding underneath the huge boxI had two more boxes of a more normal size (16×16x6 and 4×4x4):

I love biking to the post office. It is always a little challenge to see how to best carry boxes on a bike. Once at the post office I can use my bike trailer as a cart and roll it up front. This is very helpful if I have multiple large packages that would require multiple trips from the car. Finally it’s a great excuse to get out on the bike for a short ride.

For smaller loads baskets work well too:
