Any suggestions for good travel crates?

I work on the road and will be bringing my dog with me in the next month. We stay in hotels every night and some hotels require dogs to be in crates if you leave them alone. I bought a travel crate lady year but it is so heavy and cumbersome (much more so than a normal black crate) My dog is well crate trained but I wouldn't trust a flimsy mesh one because he weighs 70 lbs and I feel like he could just walk straight out haha. Does anyone know of a heavy duty nylon crate or camping crate perhaps? I would love something that could fold up smaller than a normal crate because I have a ton of photography equipment in my car already, I don't want to lug another huge thing into the hotel every night. At this point I think the best option would to just bring his normal metal one because I have searched and searched online and can't find anything that will work better but I know there has to be something out there. All ideas welcome, thank you in advance.

    I have a metal wire crate that folds up pretty flat. Of course, it still is quite large in the length and width, but it tends to fit into my truck quite well. That is the only thing I can suggest, as you've already decided a mesh crate won't work. Good luck!
