The cooler arrives ready to work, but the add-ons YETI lists for it are what change how a day on the water or the trail actually goes. Straps lock it down in a truck bed. A basket keeps sandwiches out of the meltwater. An Ice Sheet stretches the cold without adding bulk. None of it ships in the box, and that surprise is where most first-time buyers get caught.
What follows covers what fits, what each piece costs, how to pack it right, and how to get replacement parts when a latch or gasket gives out.
What Accessories Fit The Roadie 15?
YETI names three accessories as compatible favorites for the Roadie 15: the YETI Ice Sheet in Medium, the Small Roadie Cooler Basket, and the YETI Tie-Down Kit. All three are sold separately, and YETI’s accessory lineup is built around the specific cooler family rather than one universal size.
The Roadie 15 page also shows YETI Small Plastic Food Storage among its recommended add-ons, useful for keeping fruit or sandwiches dry while the ice does its job below.
Compatibility matters here. The Roadie 15 has an internal space of 13.6 × 7.5 × 10.6 inches, so a basket or Ice Sheet sized for a larger Roadie won’t seat correctly. Confirm the accessory listing names the Roadie 15 or the small Roadie family before you buy. For a hands-on comparison of the options that actually fit, this tested roundup of the best YETI Roadie 15 accessories covers fit and packing results.
How Much Do The Add-Ons Cost?
The table below reflects what YETI’s own product pages show today.

|---|---|---|

| Small Roadie Cooler Basket | $20.00 | Keeps food and small items above the ice line |
| YETI Tie-Down Kit | $50.00 | Anchors the cooler through its AnchorPoint slots for vehicle, trailer, or boat transport |

How Should You Pack And Secure It?
That ratio — not a random scoop of cubes — is what carries the cooler through a full day.
The capacity figures deserve a plain read. YETI lists 22 cans “(only)” and 16 pounds of ice “(only)” as separate maximums, not a combined load. Fill it with 22 cans and you have little room left for ice; pack it solid with ice and there’s no room for much else. Plan the trip around one or the other, then let the accessory basket reclaim the space above the ice.
- Pre-chill before loading. A cold cooler holds cold far longer than a warm one.
- Layer correctly. Ice on the bottom and around the sides, food and drinks in the basket or on top.
- Use the AnchorPoint slots in transit. The Roadie 15’s tie-down slots are built for a boat deck, trailer, or truck bed. Run a proper strap or the YETI Tie-Down Kit through them so the cooler doesn’t slide.
- Seat the lid and latches fully. A lid that isn’t closed flat lets cold air out and warm air in.
What About Straps And Replacement Parts?
Dedicated replacement parts for the Roadie hard-cooler family exist for the handle strap, latches, non-slip feet, and gasket. YETI doesn’t publish a full parts catalog on the Roadie 15 product page; it points customers to its Outfitter team for part numbers and fit confirmation.
That step is worth taking before you order anything. Note the exact model name and where the failed part sits, then contact YETI’s Outfitter team and confirm the part matches the Roadie 15 rather than a larger Roadie. A gasket that looks right but came off a Roadie 20 won’t seal.
Common Questions
Does The Roadie 15 Come With A Basket Or Ice Pack?
No. YETI sells all Roadie 15 accessories separately, including the Small Roadie Cooler Basket and the Medium Ice Sheet. Budget for those add-ons alongside the cooler’s $200 price if you want the basket and ice pack on day one.
Can You Use A Roadie 20 Accessory In The Roadie 15?
Not safely. The Roadie 15’s interior measures 13.6 × 7.5 × 10.6 inches, smaller than the larger Roadie models. Baskets and Ice Sheets sized for a bigger cooler won’t seat properly. Match the accessory listing to the Roadie 15 or the small Roadie family.
How Do You Tie Down A Roadie 15 In A Truck Bed?
Use the cooler’s built-in AnchorPoint tie-down slots with a strap or the YETI Tie-Down Kit. Run the strap through the slots and anchor both ends to the truck bed or trailer. The slots are placed to keep the cooler flat and stop it sliding during transport.
