anyone seen these in the uk?

I have a four wheeled trolley which is intended for a similar purpose. I suspect it won't be anywhere near as compact as that one will be stored.

you can purchase CARGO trailers which can be towed behind a bicycle, just look on Ebay.

Looks a great piece of kit MB ....i did post a while back ....I was going to make a trolley / cart ....looking at the pics i think i will make the same type of design i have all the bits in my workshop , a nice easy project ....in fact i will make two....will post pics when i sort them....i doubt i will make them fully collapsible though ...but they will fold flat .

Mind you, we could just use wheelbarrows

Should be plenty of them around in the future.

It would be easy to modify a mover's trolley with better wheels to achieve the same effect. If you can weld, then you'll be able to create similar here in the UK.

I have both two wheeled movers dollies and a 4 wheel lawn cart but this one is quite different in that neither of them will collapse into a flat package.

It also has big wheels, which means it is easier to roll over rough terrain.

It has the long cargo shelf which allows a better load arrangement to maintain zero weight when balanced and pulled.

And, unlike a wheelbarrow, it does not have to be balanced laterally against load shifts.

I installed all the new fasteners and assembled it, then broke it down and stashed it in the back of the SUV with the big tote in which I keep the rest of the gear stored. It takes up no additional room other than lifting the tote about 3 inches higher than it was, but still not above the seat level.

I do think I will add a couple of pieces to the handle bar for added leverage.

I am not sure if these are available in the UK, or if they would be listed in the same manner as here.

We call them "game carts" and that might not be a suitable name for the same item over there. They might be called hiking carts or something else. This one was made in China so you might be able to get one as easy as me. They are all shipped half way round the world.

Mine is too wide to roll down the isle of a bus or other public transport, but if it were a bit narrower it would be dandy for folks that have to use PT to access their camping areas.

Sportsman's Guide ships to GB but I am not familiar with the shipping rates. I know when I try to ship to over there it cost and arm and leg.

As you can see ......I do not hang about making stuff !
