SCREW-IN GROUND ANCHORS
GroundGrabba came out of an Australian camping problem: David Levine spent fifteen minutes per stake yanking 3-foot rebar out of the desert at Burning Man. So he and his partner Susan Sparkes-Young built the alternative — a screw-in ground anchor you drive in with a cordless drill. Founded on the east coast of Australia and now shipping worldwide, GroundGrabba anchors hold tents, canopies, and shelters down in sand, soft ground, and conditions where standard stakes give up.
Match the anchor to the substrate, not to the price. The Lite is glass-reinforced nylon for sand, dunes and beach. The Junior at 11 inches handles medium to harder ground. The Pro at 12 inches covers average to hard ground. The Pro I at 18 inches and Pro II at 24 inches are for soft, loose and sandy substrates where a short stake has nothing to bite. Longer is not stronger — it is for looser ground.
A cordless drill and the matching hex driver is the fast way in and out — 5/8 inch for the Pro, Pro I and Pro II, 3/4 inch for the Junior. You can turn them by hand with a socket wrench in a pinch, but the whole design assumes a drill. In genuinely hard or rocky ground you will also want the masonry bit to pre-drill a pilot hole.
GroundGrabba rates the screw-in design at up to three times the holding power of a conventional hammer-in stake. The thread grips along its full length rather than relying on friction against a smooth shaft, which is why they hold in sand and loose soil where a standard stake pulls straight out under wind load.

Oversized and freight items, such as rooftop tents, recovery equipment, and Pro Eagle products, may carry extra shipping charges. If extra charges apply, we'll let you know before the order ships.
Some items ship directly from the manufacturer or a supplier partner on their own schedule, so an order can arrive in more than one package with more than one tracking number. Full details: Shipping Policy.

Some items may carry a restocking fee of up to 15%, and we'll tell you during authorization.
Some items are fulfilled by third-party suppliers and follow that supplier's return policy, so eligibility, refund timing, return shipping, and restocking fees may differ.
Approved refunds go to your original payment method. Allow up to 10 business days after approval, and your bank may take longer to post it. Full details: Return & Refund Policy.
