no need to carry. most of them come with a hollow core, some with a slit the entire length. will hold tight to the inside of your frame triangle.
we used to use these on our race trailer. rear door opened down as a ramp, with wire cables on each side. once open, slipped some noodles over the cables to prevent painful oopsies.
