The present disclosure relates to a hitch-mounted apparatus for use in conjunction with a vehicular hitch receiver to efficiently transport one or more payloads. In particular, the hitch-mounted apparatus may include first and second support arms that are adjustably connected to a connecting member. In some embodiments, each of the first and second support arms and the connecting member include at least one mounting surface defining one or more slots. Utilizing the one or more slots, at least one of the first and second support arms can slide relative to the connecting member. Similarly, upper and lower retention mechanisms for securing a payload can slide relative to the respective first and second support arms. Further, via the one or more slots of the connecting member, lever locks can secure or loosen fasteners at a pivot joint coupling the connecting member and a hitch tube inserted into a vehicular hitch receiver.
