I take my armless office/sewing chair to retreats and it is relatively light and as a bonus it adjusts up/down and rolls. I put in the back seat with the seat of the chair down on the seat of the car with the back of the chair against the leg part of the seat.. In other words the legs of the chair are up in the air and a perfect place to pack other items around them. You can also use the chair to roll boxes, totes, or bags and other things into where ever you are going.
