Sure, why not. Harbor Freight has inexpensive ones (made in China of course). Some assembly required.
Assumes you have a reciever (hitch) installed.

Make sure you get one that folds up. Otherwise you'll be bashing your shins constantly.

Default Basket hitch
I leave my hitch in. Protects the rear bumper when the garage attendant backs into a wall.

Find hitch cargo baskets and boxes on Amazon. All sizes and prices.

Since we are in an area that heavily salts the roads I got an aluminum one. It's light and easy to store up high if I need to. Handy for a lawn mower etc.
