Garden Trolleys

[barbara1835]

Has anyone got a garden trolley...four wheeled...? And if so where can I get one please ?

I have looked everywhere and on line for a flat four wheeled trolley to cart my watering cans etc and found one at Greenfingers gardening supplies .....but they are out of stock.

Glorious gardening weather at present in the south east.....lovely isn't it ?

I am just putting in fifteen new geraniums ....my favourites.


Happy days......

We've got the first one in the link , had it a few years and it's taken some abuse but it's still going strong.

Forgot to say the sides fold down on that one so you can use it as a flat bed.

Thankyou...I am checking out these links.

I have the Coopers one !

[barbara1835]

Do you find that the handle is too low, Murraymints?
Some of the review comments mention this.

Yes Barbs, I've also joined the Coopers of Stortford club Too!
I find mine very handy for carting stuff around the garden. At the moment I'm using it to harden off plants, after taking them out of the conservatory each morning and wheeling them off to a warm sunny spot.
I've got sweetcorn, tomatoes, courgettes and aubergines all doing well in their pots and its saving me a lota legwork!

That one sounds like just what I need.


Thankyou.

just seen your question, the handle can be raised..has pin points through which a fixing rod is placed at your selected height

[barbara1835]

Thankyou...that's useful.

or failing that, has anyone got a link to wheels that would fit, pref solid ones. Thanks

Woofgang, on this link it tells you the axle bore diameter ( 16mm ).
You will have to measure the diameter of the axle on the Coopers Of Stortford trolley of yours to know if the wheels will fit.

that’s what I thought tony....I was hoping someone on here had already done it and knew the answer :( ....but thanks

[tonyav]

Also it will need 55mm axle length for it to fit properly.


It is a split wheel for easy tube removal and the axle bore is 55mm length of the offset hub.

[woofgang]

and now you speak in tongues :)

[tonyav]

LOL, all you need is a measure tape or preferably a 0 to 1 inch micrometer to find out if the wheels will fit, woofgang.

[woofgang]

thank you for your patience....
can you put this bit into idiot speak for me please
"axle bore is 55mm length of the offset hub."

You will need to see how far the present wheel is on the axle ( measure in mm ). Usually there is a stop on the axle where the back of the wheel sits, see if you can measure from the stop to the end of the axle for the wheels on the link to fit you will need 55mm from the stop to the end of the axle.
