You can reduce the size of it by folding up the wheels to make it more compact. You can also remove the handles very easily, making the thing very compact. The weight and size of load is a very individual matter. I like this item because it is truly multifunctional - you can use it as a small wheelbarrow, you can use it as a dolly to move heavier items (trash bags, for example), and with an added attachment you can use it as a snow plow (my wife loves using it for this!). So, to answer your question - yes, probably. Try finding one at a local store so you can check whether you could slide it into your SUV (and find out the cheapest price). Then you will have to order it (or not) to really know.
