I'm looking for a long, strong plastic bag that I can put a baby buggy in and then can be strapped to the car roof. It needs to be big enough for the folded buggy and strong enough to take several hundred motorway speed miles of wind and rain. I was thinking of using a survival bag but has anyone seen something in DIY stores that may be better?
You can get strong rubble sacks from most hardware stores, B&Q etc. Might be a bit flappy but taped down should be fine. Other than that a dry sack if you can get the size.
What is the folded size of the buggy?

have you been down to your local bed shop, and get a mattress bag or two for free single, double, ect thay are thick plastic and strong even if it splits throw it and get another lots of this type of shops in most towns
Hi. If you do go for the rubble sack idea, you will probably need a couple for a baby buggy. Make sure you put the one at the BACK of the car on first. Then put the front one on and tape it down with gaffer tape. That way any rain won't be forced inside.
What about the bin liners you can buy for wheelie bin, they're extra strong and big sizes, you'd need a couple probably.
Another idea is to see if you can hire a buggy at your destination, or if you're going somewhere local to a UKCS member you might even get the lend of a buggy!
