A transport rack assembly includes a left side clamp base and a separate right side clamp base that are adjustably positionable toward and away from each other. Both the left side clamp base and right side clamp base have a first clamp and a second clamp. The second clamp on each clamp base is movable toward and away from the first clamp on each clamp base between a first position where the first clamp and second clamp are spaced from each other enabling an object to be positioned between the first clamp and the second clamp, and a second position where the first clamp and second clamp engage with each other enabling the object to be clamped between the first clamp and second clamp. The transport rack assembly also includes a strap base that is separate from the left side clamp base and the right side clamp base.
