It folds pretty flat. It is padded, so not completely flat. I am happy with the product. The first one I got leaked. AO replaced it and this one is good

It will flatten some but not completely flat since the sides are made of insulating foam. On the AO Cooler website it states that the insulating foam is 3/4" so I would guess it will flatten down to a couple of inches thick.For a good idea of how flat it can be check out this product demo video from AO Coolers, at the 2:25 mark he takes out a packaged AO Cooler thats flattened and this will give you an idea about how flat you can fold it up:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEg87lbj3YYIts a great cooler and so much more useful than a hard side cooler.

So I have a 36 can cooler and I carried it on a flight in a day pack, so I would say that it compresses fairly well! As far a actual size I would say about a foot 18" square by about 5" thick......good luck!

I was able to flatten it in a suitecase for a trip to Florida . Plus it kept " beverages " cold on the beach all day in 80* weather.

Not near mine but I guess about 3 inches if something is placed on top of it. It's stiff enough to hold its shape when empty.

Hi and it will flatten out to about 3" high but if a heavy object is stored on the top it will go even further. So, I would suggest packing it on the bottom as the material is very durable and can be washed easily. Hope this helps!

Yes, it folds flat as you might expect. You may have to adjust width of top surface so that it has room to scrunch up.

It collapses into a pile - but not very small. You should not have a problem if you are renting an SUV or a large car. But if you have lots of luggage and a small car; this will be an issue

It doesn't fold flat, but you can disassemble and reassemble it in less than a minute. The four panel size will fit easily in your truck when it's disassembled. I love these pet pens! :o)

This is out in my car, while I'm at work, so I'm going out on a limb here, but I have to say yes. It's not tiny. Not LARGE, but an okay size. I think it never occurred to me to include handle dimensions in with cooler size, to be honest.

Yes, if you fold it in a U shape, it should fit in a box that is 12" x 12" x 6". It will flatten out just fine afterward. I would not recommend storing it that however. -James

It's pretty flat. My daughter loves it for snacks & me too. It fits in all the lunch packs we have. Would you like me to give you dimensions? Here they are anyway :) 8.5"x6'x2". Have a great day.

I normally fold it to fit along the back of my pack so that it is about 10x14 inches and pretty flat, however the smallest I can fold it in on itself is about 7.5x6.25x2.5 inches. You could probably try rolling it up as well, however be careful because if you pack it in on itself over tightly the grommets will actually dig into the fabric and can cause it to thin out in those spots and possibly leak. Hope this helps! Also just tried rolling it up and got it to roll up to snugly into the orange thermo-lite bivvy bag sack.

With plenty of room to spare! IT folds down about 1 1/2 ft wide by 2 ft long. MAybe 7-8 inches high. IT's awesome for small cars! Thats why we got it over all the other options! Good luck!

I have a Subaru Impreza and it doesn't take up my whole trunk space. There is still room for groceries and whatever else. It folds up to about the same size as a Graco or Chicco large stroller would (as opposed to an umbrella stroller). We tested ours out at buy buy baby so if you have one close by, it's worth the visit.

It's a big stroller and does not collapse that small. It is going to require the trunk of an average sedan or cargo area of an SUV. The stroller itself is light but it takes a few minutes to set it all up. It might fit in a compact car but I have no first hand experience with them. I have never folded ours up as we have trucks and just throw it in the bed

I have mine in my mini... its a bit big, but I just fold the top over and it looks great, and stays in place. Could add to the hassle if your in a hurry, but it works for me.

Yes, this does fold flat quickly and easily for transportation! That's part of the reason why we love it so much. We can easily fold it up and pack it in the car when we bring our black lab over to others' houses when we go on vacation without her.

It folds fairly flat, but it will still be rather long. It doesn't really get into a "pile" because the back is rigid (the side where the handle & wheels are). I'd say it becomes sort of like a flat suitcase. It is only a few inches thick when collapsed. It would fit in the trunk of a rental car easily, depending on how much else you need to fit in the trunk!

Yes I think it would but I've never put it on its side because it's compact enough to go upright in my car. I absolutely LOVE this cooler. Perfect size easy to carry or pull on wheels.

You should have no problem! Mine , when completely folded down is no more than 6 inches thick. I don't know for sure because I have bedding and everything that I put in with it before I folded up. But it really does fold flat. It clips and even has a handle to lift it in and out kind of like a suitcase. Be aware that it might rattle in your car. You might need to add a towel or a blanket or something to help stabilize the sides so that you don't have to listen to it rattle as you drive. I love this kennel for travel. It folds easily and is really really nice.

Well, it's made of foam so it's pretty pliable. I'd say it could be folded in half. I just used mine on a bus trip a week ago. I stuffed it into my bag and it "fluffed out" nicely.
