Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK – 66L All-Terrain Wheeled Cooler
Bring serious cold storage almost anywhere with the Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK, a feature-packed wheeled hard cooler designed for camping, fishing, beaches, festivals, BBQs and long road trips.
Igloo describes the Trailmate Journey as its all-terrain cooler, and it’s easy to understand why.
Instead of taking an ordinary large ice chest and simply adding two small wheels, Igloo built the Trailmate around outdoor mobility.
You get oversized wheels, a locking telescoping Glide handle, a generous 70QT / 66L capacity, dry storage, cup holders, bottle openers, a removable serving tray, fishing-rod or umbrella holders and a suspended food basket.
Igloo officially rates the cooler to hold up to 112 standard 12oz cans.
This particular example has only been used a handful of times and remains in excellent overall condition.
1. Huge 70QT / 66L Capacity
The Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK gives you 70 US quarts or approximately 66 litres of internal capacity.
That’s plenty for a proper outdoor trip.
Load it with drinks for a BBQ.
Pack food and ice for a camping weekend.
Take it fishing.
Fill it before a festival.
Or make it the main passive cooler for a family road trip.
Igloo rates the Trailmate Journey to accommodate up to 112 standard 12oz cans, giving you a useful idea of its overall scale.
Naturally, maximum can capacity is not the same as practical capacity once you’ve added plenty of ice.
For longer trips, leave sufficient room for ice rather than trying to fill every centimetre with drinks.
2. Oversized All-Terrain Wheels
Mobility is where the Trailmate really separates itself from an ordinary hard cooler.
The Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK uses oversized wheels designed to deal with more challenging outdoor terrain.
Igloo specifically highlights sand, curbs and trails as environments the Trailmate was designed to tackle.
That’s important with a cooler this large.
A 15.74 kg empty cooler can become extremely heavy once you add dozens of cans, food and kilograms of ice.
Instead of carrying all that weight every time you move camp, tilt the Trailmate onto its wheels and pull it.
That’s a major advantage for beaches, festivals, campsites and large car parks.
3. Glide Telescoping Handle
At the rear is Igloo’s distinctive Glide handle.
It’s a locking telescoping handle designed to give you leverage when pulling the cooler.
The handle also provides somewhere to mount the removable butler tray when you’re serving food or drinks.
Together with the oversized wheels, it transforms the way a large cooler can be moved.
Rather than treating the Trailmate like a giant box that needs two people every time it moves, you can roll it across suitable surfaces.
4. Extended Ice Retention
The Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK uses an insulated body and lid together with Igloo’s Cool Riser Technology.
Igloo describes the current Trailmate as using THERMECOOL insulation for extended ice retention.
Some Trailmate generations have also been marketed with up to four days of ice retention under suitable conditions.
Real-world ice life always varies.
A cooler left in direct Mediterranean sunshine and opened every few minutes will not perform the same as one kept shaded at a campsite in Wales.
For stronger performance, pre-chill the cooler and everything going inside it, use plenty of ice and minimise unnecessary opening.
5. Four Self-Draining Cup Holders
Look at the lid in your photograph and you’ll see four moulded cup holders.
They’re not simply decorative recesses.
Igloo describes them as four self-draining cup holders designed to keep drinks secure and within reach.
That makes the Trailmate useful as more than cold storage.
At a campsite or BBQ, the closed lid becomes part of your outdoor setup.
Put your drink down.
Grab another from inside.
You don’t necessarily need another table sitting beside the cooler.
6. Water-Resistant Dry Storage
Cold storage is great for drinks.
Not so great for your phone.
That’s why the Trailmate incorporates a separate water-resistant storage compartment.
Igloo says the compartment has an anti-leak gasket and is intended for smaller essentials such as phones and sunglasses.
Keep keys, sunglasses and similar small items away from melting ice while still having them close to hand.
It’s a particularly thoughtful feature for beaches and campsites.
7. Removable Butler Tray
One of the coolest features of the Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK is its removable butler tray.
The tray can be positioned on the telescoping handle to create a convenient serving area for food and drinks.
When you’re finished, it stores underneath the cooler lid.
That’s clever use of space.
At a festival or basic campsite where you don’t want to carry extra furniture, multipurpose equipment makes a real difference.

Used – Excellent Condition
This Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK has only been used a handful of times.
It is being sold because a smaller cooler is now needed rather than because there’s anything fundamentally wrong with it.
I would describe it as:
Used – Excellent Condition
It may show minor cosmetic evidence of previous use, but overall it remains in excellent shape.
The actual product photographs form part of the condition description.
That wording is better than saying “like new” as the formal WooCommerce condition because it makes the previous use completely clear.
Suspended Food Basket
The Trailmate includes another smart feature inside: a suspended food basket.
Instead of putting everything directly into the ice and meltwater, selected food can sit above it in the basket.
Igloo specifically designed this to keep chosen items cold but dry.
That can be useful for:
Sandwiches.
Fruit.
Cheese.
Wrapped snacks.
Other food you don’t want sitting directly in ice water.
Two Built-In Bottle Openers
Igloo even includes two stainless-steel bottle openers.
They’re built directly into the cooler, so you don’t have to search through bags for an opener every time somebody wants a bottled drink.
It’s a small feature, but it fits the Trailmate’s overall approach: make the cooler an outdoor station rather than just an insulated box.
Fishing Rod and Umbrella Holders
The Trailmate also includes two pole slots.
They can be used for fishing rods or a beach umbrella.
For anglers, that’s especially useful.
Roll the cooler down to your fishing spot.
Secure your rods.
Keep food and drinks cold.
Use the lid’s cup holders.
Keep small essentials in the dry compartment.
The cooler becomes part of the fishing setup.

Mobile Device Stand
There’s even a dedicated slot designed to hold a mobile device upright.
At camp, you can prop up your phone rather than leaving it on the ground.
Play music.
Follow a recipe.
Watch something while relaxing.
Keep the screen visible while using the cooler as your drinks station.
It’s another little feature that explains why Igloo has described the Trailmate as a kind of “Swiss Army Knife of Coolers.”
Threaded Drain Plug
A 70QT cooler can accumulate a serious amount of meltwater.
Thankfully, you don’t have to lift the entire thing and tip it upside down.
The Trailmate uses a threaded drain plug with an easy-grip tethered cap, and Igloo says the drain is compatible with a garden hose.
When you’re finished:
Drain the water.
Wash the interior.
Rinse it thoroughly.
Allow it to dry.
Then store the cooler with the interior clean for its next adventure.
Cool Riser Technology
Igloo’s Cool Riser Technology elevates the cooler body away from hot surfaces.
That matters because heat doesn’t only reach a cooler through the surrounding air.
It can transfer directly from hot concrete, decking, tarmac or ground into the cooler body.
Raising the main insulated compartment helps reduce that direct heat exposure and contributes to cooling performance.
Perfect for UK Camping
The Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK is built for weekends where you’re carrying more than a few sandwiches.
Load it in London.
Head towards Cornwall.
Take it camping in Wales.
Travel from Manchester into the Lake District.
Or pack it before driving through Scotland.
With 66 litres of capacity, there’s enough room to prepare properly for a group or family trip.

Brilliant Beach Cooler
A beach is where the oversized wheels become particularly valuable.
Ordinary little cooler wheels can struggle as soon as the surface becomes uneven.
The Trailmate was specifically designed around more demanding terrain, including sand.
Add the umbrella holder, dry storage, cup holders and serving tray and the whole design starts making sense.
This isn’t simply a cooler that happens to have wheels.
It’s an outdoor entertainment system built around cold storage.
Festival Weekends
The Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK is also a strong festival-camping option where large coolers are permitted.
Load it with:
Water.
Soft drinks.
Breakfast food.
Snacks.
Ice.
Camping supplies.
Use the dry compartment for smaller essentials and the external pocket for things you need quickly.

BBQs and Garden Parties
You don’t have to travel anywhere to appreciate the Trailmate.
Roll it into the garden for a summer BBQ.
Load it with cold drinks and ice.
Use the cup holders.
Put the butler tray on the handle.
Keep the kitchen fridge available for food.
For larger gatherings, having a dedicated outdoor drinks cooler makes entertaining much easier.
Road Trips Around Britain
The Igloo Trailmate Journey 70QT Cooler UK also makes sense for longer road trips when you have sufficient boot space.
Start in Birmingham.
Travel through Wales.
Drive into the Lake District.
Continue north into Scotland.
Because it’s a passive cooler, you don’t need a compressor, 12V connection or battery.

Take It Across Europe
Load the Trailmate in Britain and take it further.
France.
Belgium.
Netherlands.
Germany.
Spain.
Portugal.
Italy.
Passive cooling keeps things simple.
There’s no electrical compatibility issue between countries and no campsite hookup required.
Keep it properly iced and you’re ready to travel.
