Understanding Garden Carts: Purpose and Benefits
An outdoor garden requires maintenance, time, and energy. The larger it is, the more equipment you'll need and the more you'll have to be careful not to exhaust yourself. That's why you need to understand the purpose of a garden cart or wheelbarrow, as they can prove to be very useful. This type of rolling equipment for gardeners allows you to load, unload, and transport your tools or branches more easily. Made of plastic or metal, they have one or more wheels, a bin or frame, and a handle.
Types of Garden Carts: Features and Comparisons
The cart is a multifunctional piece of equipment, always having between two and four wheels. In a four-wheel model, it looks like a mini garden trailer, usually metallic, which makes it more robust and versatile. Very stable, it generally maintains a large volume, allowing you to move more things at once. You can easily place a garden waste bag on it. Once full, it will be less heavy to transport. Note that some cart models are also foldable. With two wheels, it's usually made of plastic, which makes it very maneuverable and lighter to carry. It looks more like a caddy, ideal for small gardens. A wheelbarrow, on the other hand, has only one wheel and generally has a smaller volume. Also, to move a wheelbarrow, you usually have to push it and not pull it like a cart.
Selecting the Right Garden Cart for Your Needs
There are several criteria for choosing the right garden cart. In general, one thing to remember is that it's all about usage. Nevertheless, your equipment must respect the following rule: maneuverability, comfort, and sturdiness. If you have a small garden or vegetable patch and are looking for a light and maneuverable cart, go for a two-wheeled cart. If, on the contrary, you need a large volume, prefer a high-load garden cart, or even a tilting garden cart. You'll then take into account not only the volume of the bin but also its material and structure. Also, the number and type of wheels is a detail not to be overlooked. Whether solid or inflatable, this should be taken into account depending on your terrain, whether it's rough or not. A model that can be used with a spare wheel for a garden cart is not to be overlooked.
