Garden Trolley - Scarlet - 18-07-2022
I want one! I used to have a huge thing that we
Managed to hook onto the lawn mower when moving big piles of tree clippings etc around. It eventually fell apart but I used it often.
Now I would like one, but I would like it to pick flowers. At the moment I either carry a bucket half filled with water, pick and walk back to my shed where I store flowers. This does mean I am wandering around quite a bit and carrying the water isn't ideal.
So I would like something that's solid and will last , my old one was mesh metal, I would like a good solid flat, bottom? Easy to manoeuvre over grass and big enough to carry 2 buckets.
Anyone else use one?

What about something like these? The 4 wheel ones might tip you buckets over ( if you’re ground is as uneven as mine )
Never used any sort of garden trolly so just guessing.

Yes, my ground is really uneven. Wanted something to pull as have had a few disasters with flowers in the wheelbarrow.

Use square pots to collect flowers or put a grid over the barrow to stop buckets from moving around.
I always pull a wheelbarrow as I find that, its less strain to lift and, most importantly, I can see where I'm going.
RE: Garden Trolley - Scarlet - 18-07-2022
I have several wheelbarrows that I use most days - if it worked well I wouldn't be asking about a garden trolley...
I don't want to spend a fortune on square pots either to be honest.
RE: Garden Trolley - Veggie - 18-07-2022
OK, I'll go back in my box.
