Lawn and Garden Carts
Lawn and Garden Carts – Handy, Helpful and Essential to Gardeners
Many gardeners consider their lawn and garden cart a valuable partner, whether they work in a greenhouse, an outdoor garden bed, or grooming and landscaping their lawn. Helpful, and to some gardeners essential, carts are used to accomplish a variety of tasks, including— 1)Hauling heavy loads, such as soil, fertilizer, garden waste and clippings, even firewood. 2) Moving plants, pots and containers such as flats, from greenhouse to outdoor bed, deck and back again. 3)Organizing tools and implements, and keeping them at hand while making the rounds of yard and garden chores during the course of a typical day. Characteristics of a Good Lawn and Garden Cart Gardeners describe their favorite carts as being spacious, yet lightweight, easy to handle, and equipped with an organization system for the tools and supplies they use most often, such as clippers, weeders, rakes and pruners. They choose carts with a large hauling capacity that is storage friendly; one popular model even folds to save space. A good lawn and garden cart can make your workday easier by following you from task to task during the course of your day, around the lawn as you clip, weed and prune, bringing your tools, a snack and cool drink along, and holding the trash and waste clippings you pick up along the way. Here are some considerations that should factor into your choice of cart: How much will you use your new lawn and garden cart? If you are the occasional gardener or lawn caretaker who needs one for a big chore here and there, maybe you can get by with a wheelbarrow (much more difficult to handle) or one of the cheaper plastic versions. Just be sure to test it for maneuverability. What is your physical condition? If you need your lawn and garden cart to handle part of your load and minimize your steps because of less than perfect health or low strength, choose a cart that will do much of the work for you. Make sure it is made of lightweight material, handles easily and has space to carry everything you need to avoid trips to the house, garage or greenhouse for forgotten items. Choose a lawn and garden cart that will last through weather, water and plenty of use. If you spend a good deal of time gardening and doing yard work, a quality model is a worthwhile investment that will provide dependable convenience for many years to come.
