Two-Wheeled Manual Wheelbarrow

A Two-Wheeled Manual Wheelbarrow, with the axle running under the tub, offers greater balance and stability in transporting bulk materials than does a standard barrow. Depending on make/model, the tub, which sits on a steel frame, is made of galvanized metal or polyethylene plastic; the handle(s) are single and U-shaped with cushioned grips or are standard left/right ones with bicycle-type grips; and the tires are either air-filled or flat-free types. Hauling and volume capacities of a dual-wheeler range from 300 to 400 pounds and 3 to 4 cubic feet, respectively.

Estimated Cost Cost range: $75-$175
