Never heard of a meatloaf basket. i just smoke my meatloaf on a piece of parchment paper. Works good for me.
Here's a Brinkmann one.

I bet you could find something locally...you may want to look at a storage/organize your stuff store or the organization aisle at HD or Lowe's. They have chromed bins like this to hold things in your pantry or office that I would be willing to try.

I just smoke them the same way you smoke a fatty.

somebody shut me the fark up.
I just form the beef into a loaf and smoke it right on the grates of the WSM.
Originally I wanted a basket too, but then I realized how much of a PITA it would be to get a meatloaf out of the basket that I got over it.

I start mine in a loaf pan, and pour off the grease as it cooks. About 1/2 way into the cook, it is firm enough to remove from the pan and place on the grate. It gets plenty of smoke. I've heard of others who cook in a foil loaf pan and punch drain holes in it so it drains as it cooks. I think smoked meatloafs are delicious. Good luck on yours.

I just mold it and throw it on the smoker. If I have them I will use the disposable grill top liners. The meatloaf will have no prob staying together.

I made holes in the dispo pans from the market, after a while (1 hour or so) I took them out and left them by themselves.
Worked well...

I have one of those baskets, and while it works nicely, I don't bother with it most of the time cause it's a pain to clean. However, that basket is real nice for grilling veggies in. Not a big basket, but pretty sturdy. The other thing with the basket is that it makes for a thicker/higher loaf which takes a little longer to cook. Much easier to lay it on a small piece of foil right on the grate.

I use parchment paper cut close on the sides, and longer than the meat loafs. That way the grease can drain off, and the long ends give something to lift with.
