Hooray for Carts!
This is the cart video we promised when we talked about using a cart for our big Bluetti. We ended up with two carts and some bonus lessons that we share in this video. Both carts are listed in our Amazon store on our website. Links are below.

I think so too. Thank you!
I love wagons and dollies! I have about 6 wagons and various wheeled movers for all sorts of different tasks. I have one to take the groceries from the house to the pantry. One for fire wood. Two for in the garden, one has all the tools and supplies, and another for moving mulch, soil, trimmings etc. Anything that involves moving more than an armful of something, out comes a wagon! I just love them. And good for you getting into carts, the fact of the matter is, sometimes you just have to do what ever you have to do

Another tip that some people might find helpful that are not as physical as they once were. Look at getting a (comfortable!) folding chair. For gardening etc, we always take out folding chairs (and drinks etc) on the wagons, so whereever we are on the property we can sit and take a break, have a drink and relax... and don't be shy to stop and have as many sit downs as needed. This really helps on big jobs, involving a lot of digging, or chainsawing through a lot etc

Thank you for sharing all of these great ideas!
I love your positive attitudes and your cart demos! Thanks for sharing with us. Last year I purchased a collapsible wagon that can hold 300 lbs to aid my daughter and I handle our camping equipment. We camp near a spring-fed river, but it is very hot and humid there in the summer. Having the wagon to haul the tents and other heavy equipment from the cars to their places in the camp really lessened the workload. I also am getting older and want to keep camping for years to come. The wagon also helps immensely with gardening chores. Great video! Here is to many more adventures!

I am so thrilled to see others like myself looking for those “can do” options as limitations present new challenges. I have been trying to think of cart options for camping gear myself! Working sometimes in a warehouse I was considering a hand truck the style that is adjustable that can have a long base when needed. Thank you for sharing the solution you came up with! I look forward to seeing more solutions you come up for yourselves 🎉 Great share! Thanks again!

I recommend another simple solution at your back step. Cobble some wood to make an isosceles triangle (ramp) the height of the step. It should be fairly easy to place, and remove when done...and will easy the bumpy landing as well as the gravity pull uphill.

OMG I think we have the first cart you showed (couldn't find it on your Amazon link). We have our heavy 4Patriot solar battery storage generator on it at all times, which makes being able to put it next to the bank of solar panels outside, much easier. Love a heavy duty cart that is easy for me to handle. Am going to get another one and see how it will work for hauling firewood inside, since the straps that came with the cart will keep the firewood from tumbling off the cart.

❤❤❤ I guess you didnt like the idea of the flo-hives? Im a fan of big fat tall wheel Garbage Can/ oil drum dolleys. But, I would get one of those and weld a point for a third center wheel if I were doing what you are. Cross country setup would be a single fat tall as you can get wheel barrel.. without the barrel, and use netting. Great find! Thanks for sharing.

Why did you choose a cart over a hand truck? Both can be foldable and carry the same amount of weight? I'm in my 70s also. I have a cart for my Nature's Generator and I also struggle with a portable car freezer. Aways looking for a way to work smarter.
