It should, depending on the size of your trunk. It's not really heavy, but more bulky if anything. When you get to where it's going, set it down, don't plug it in for several hours. When you move a fridge like that, the compressor oil goes all over the place (on the inside) so you have to let it set upright for several hours to let the oil drain back into the compressor. If you don't do that, there is a good chance that you can burn the compressor. Best of luck to you.....be careful not to hurt your back.

Because you don't say what type of vehicle you are going to use, let's assume it is a compact (smallest besides a mini!). The smallest compact trunk is going to have an average cubic foot size of 12 cubic feet with the lid closed. However, the cubic foot size of a fridge is determined by the inside size. An average mini-fridge dimensions (outside) is approximately 24" wide, 24" deep and 36" high. So, yes, it will fit with the lid closed! As far as weight goes, most weigh approximately 40 pounds. It's not all that heavy, but bulky. If you need to move it a distance, try taking a piece of carpeting or even a rug, heavy blanket or something in that line, and place the fridge on it and just grab ahold of the corners of the carpet (rug, blanky) and pull it. It pulls with ease. Even up some stairs if the blanket is big enough to wrap all the way around it.
Enjoy you're new fridge! Have Fun and
Good Luck To You!
