The Ultimate Space-Saving Safety Solution: Pop-Up Traffic Cones

Collapsible Traffic Cones (also known as pop-up cones or retractable cones) are the ideal solution for vehicles that require full-sized safety equipment but lack the storage space for rigid PVC cones. Unlike traditional stackable cones that consume valuable trunk or truck bed space, our collapsible models compress down to less than 3 inches in height, allowing an entire 5-pack kit to fit into a single, compact carrying bag.

Key Features & Technology

  • Integrated LED Beacons: Unlike standard cones, our collapsible models feature internal, battery-operated LED lights. This provides active illumination inside the cone, significantly increasing visibility for drivers during night operations, fog, or rain.
  • Heavy-Duty Stability: A common misconception is that "collapsible" means "flimsy." Our cones are engineered with substantial rubber bases (up to 10 lbs for the 30" model) to resist wind gusts and passing traffic draft, meeting the stability standards of solid cones.
  • MUTCD Compliant: Our 28" and 30" models meet federal Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) standards for height, color, and reflectivity, making them legal for use on highways and public roads.

Who Uses Retractable Cones?

These kits are standard equipment for professionals who need to deploy a traffic pattern instantly without a dedicated safety truck. They are trusted by:

  • First Responders: Police cruisers, Fire Engines, and EMT vehicles where every cubic inch of onboard storage is vital.
  • Utility & Towing Fleet: Utility trucks and tow operators who need to secure a scene immediately upon arrival.
  • Personal Safety: The compact nature makes these ideal for civilian car emergency kits to warn oncoming traffic during a breakdown or tire change.

Note on Sizing: While we offer 28" and 30" heavy-duty models for highway use, always check your local ordinances regarding the required cone height for specific road speeds.
