Folding Cart from Lee Valley
While having a good, sturdy cart aids in countless yard and garden chores, storing one when it’s not in use can be difficult for those short on space. That’s why we like this cart – not only is it well made and a good size for general duty, it folds up in seconds for compact storage, without tools. It is slim enough to fit through most garden gates or trundle along narrow pathways, has 5.75 cu.ft. of cargo capacity and a 330 lb load rating. Folded, it measures less than 10” wide by about 42” long and weighs only 33 lb. Available at www.leeval-
