shedhunta also has a good idea, the sleds are cheaper than the mats also

Lots of places sell fitted plastic forms/trays for SUV's, I'm sure you could find one on the web.  As for the stains, I would not use peroxide, you will bleach your rug.

I will ask my wife who cleans cars / houses for a living and has to deal all kind of stuff.

I will post results tonight.

Once cleaned good (Shampooed) - them scotsguard the rug. it will help in future en-devours.

Some states require proof of sex when transporting deer-quartering is not an option then.

I went to the dealer and ordered a tray with sides for my VW Jetta's trunk.

LoL,i can just imagine the people next door seeing me drag a body bag out of my SUV at night,lol.

Our local trailer sales business sell enclosed trailers cheaper than anywhere in the country. I was going to buy a 2x pickup and found out that the topper for it to match the pickup from the car dealer would cost more than a deluxe 4x6 trailer.  So I bought a Subaru instead. I spent less money, have a better vehicle and I only have the two miles less per gallon when pulling the trailer when I need it, and that is still way better than the pickup would ever get.

Kinda funny story. Several years ago my twin(may he rest in peace) and I had a lease near Brady, Texas. He had a bright yellow Nissan Xtera. We killed two 8 points and 2 hogs on this trip, threw all 4 on the roof of the xtera and tied them down and drove back to Ft. Worth. We were at a traffic light in one of the little towns on the way and my bro made the statement that we were probably not "politically correct" with the 4 dead animals on the roof of the car. I said what do you mean, we are in Texas. Bout that time a lady jumped out of her car and started taking pictures of us. LOL, guess it did kinda look strange with the blood running down the sides of the car but what the heck, like I said we were in deer country Texas. We had bags of ice inside all 4 animals and I guess what ever blood was left got thinned out and started running down the sides of that bright yellow car.

Jet sled. I have two in my avalanche. Great on snow water and dry ground to move equipment and deer. I load all my gear in them for pull out access to stuff. Move stuff to back seat or on deer with deer in one. I pull them out onto a table in barn to unload quick. Two person lift on sides for fast easy loading a deer.

You need to have some cargo length for the size I use. They are about 20x60. I can fit two between wheel wells and have space left over. They make other sizes but this one is ideal for me and fits an average deer well with legs folded in. sheet of cardboard helps them slide a little better and keeps the drops and smudges of blood and dirt of the floor.

hey you could call junk yard n see if any of the rubber mats from the blazers or other suv might get one for a few bucks who knows and the camo sled sounds good if theres no deer to be had you could always take a ride enjoy

Weather tech mats and cargo trays rock....I have them in my 4Runner.
Color safe bleach for the blood.....1 part color safe,  10 parts water!!!! Color safe is deferent than regular chlorine bleach.....should be just fine for your interior....test in a hidden spot as always to make absolutely sure.
Lastly:   What Mr. Lamb said!!! Those hitch carriers are the best!!!! Think Santa may have one coming for me this year actually   :thumbsup:

What about a cheap plastic kiddie pool?

Try warm salt water with a sponge.

I bought a Jet Sled, helps with the drag and with the right size keeps the animal, ice, blood in the sled.

Got a hitch rack for my Ford Escape now but when I drove a Dodge Caravan I used one of those lightweight black plastic snow sleds that the kids use.  Worked great to haul the deer out then slide the whole package into the Van.

I dont like those hitch racks because for the places I go they would hit the ground or be an issue for getting back into some places.

I have weather tech floor liners in the front of my car which have deep sides that give full coverage so I dont get mud everywhere. The back I also have the weather tech with the side lips so that it will not over flow if water or blood is in there. I use my car for work as well as hunting and fishing so having these top of the line floor mats is the only way to go! easy to clean and they contain any mess!

Use magic erasers to get the blood out, they work great.

Thanks for all the suggestions, will probably get a sled to slide into the car and fit clothes, etc. around it. Interior space in my vehicle is 40"x 68" so the sled will work well. Will also try the cleaning suggestions if any blood spillage.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

shedhunta

I was just reminded.  Jet Sled is the brand I use.  High sides, thick plastic that won't fold when you pick it up with deer in it.  Easy to clean, and I put all my gear in it when it is clean so it is ready to go.
