Last Thursday we ventured down to sunny Sussex to join the forest knights on the one off mini moot. Waynes site is lovely, but not one you can park in the middle of and requires a small bimble around the edge of a ploughed field.
I fancied an offroad style of trolley, but felt £70 was probably a bit much and I was concerned it wouldn't collapse small enough for transport. What I did find was this on ebay:
Red "Parker brand" heavy Duty Foldable Garden Trolley.
Frankly I was chuffed. I had some stuff to move about at the hackspace (like aircon units) which are bulky and a pain on the back so gave it a run. The sparkies that came did have a good laugh at it, but quickly realised it took all their gear and was no effort carrying it back to the car and asked for a link to buy one for themselves for site. This thing really does take +100kg with no trouble (about the weight of me, 'cos I rode it around a bit) and if you properly load it, it happily eats up the bumpy path round fields as well. It's sold as a festival wagon, but frankly it took 50ltrs of water across fairly poor terrain and up a steep embankment without any sort of worry. One of the mini mooters had bought the more expensive version I was looking at. Sadly it'd lost a split pin and got a puncture I think either before it was out of the box or certainly on its way over to the campsite.
No assembly is required and it worked just out of the box

Heavy Duty Foldable Garden Trolley Cart Wagon - Red | eBay
The fully foldable trolley will no doubt have lots of uses we didn’t intend but you guys will love them! Have trolley, will travel. They also appealed to campers and those with caravans with doubtless a stack of uses.
