A collapsible trunk-accessible cart includes a basket that is supported by a set of wheels, and which can be rolled forward and backward on the wheels. The wheels are in turn supported by a pair of cantilever horizontal support arms to which both front and rear legs are attached. The front and rear legs can be folded up over respective sides of the basket. The front legs extend forward at an angle to allow some of the lower portions of the front legs to pass under the rear of a vehicle so that the basket can then be moved into the trunk or cargo area of the vehicle. The basket can be rolled forward into the trunk, while a lift assist mechanism retains the legs to the basket, which can then be folded over the sides of the basket.
