A cargo strap assembly securement device 1 for detachable attachment to a strap 20 of a cargo strap assembly 2. The securement device comprises a fastening means 70 to form a collar around the strap 20 for attachment to the strap (20, figure 14c). The device comprises a first magnet 40 for magnetically engaging the device 1 to a support structure (34), and a body 80 connecting the first magnet and the fastening means together. Preferably the device comprises a plurality of magnets, e.g. second and third magnets 50, (60, figure 16). The cargo strap may comprise a hook claw (25, figure 14c) at each end. Once the first hook is attached and the user is travelling around the vehicle to engage the second hook, the first hook can fall under its own weight, however the securement device may prevent this from happening by magnetically engaging the strap securement device to a support structure of the vehicle typically above the first hook. Following the magnetic attachment, the user need not maintain the tension in the strap since the first magnet may be strong enough to stop the first hook from falling under its own weight.
