I bought a little foldup porter trolley from Maplin for as many peanuts as you can get for £19.
I hope yours is better. Mine states 70Kg load, but my 13Kg Markbass is already too much. However it turned out perfect for my little "portable PA" thing that I use for busking

After just over a year the rubber on the tyres of my Maplin trolley have completely disintegrated rendering it useless. I've tried fixing them and I've looked for replacement wheels but couldn't extend the life of it. Very frustrating as the rest of the trolley is still working fine and it was perfect for the job. I reckon spending a bit more on a better quality trolley will save you money in the long run and reduce waste. I think I'll be getting myself one of those fishing trolleys, they look just the job!

I bought one of these,https://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/csta100-fully-folding-sack-truck

It's doing sterling service for my kit, 90kg capacity is pretty good too.

I think you're all looking at this the wrong way. Surely the best thing to do would be to build a cradle that attaches to lots of helium balloons and float your amp around.

Works for me!

That's the design I use, though I think the source I posted a link to in post #22 was a bit cheaper?

I've bought one of these to move my trace elliot smc 7215

Great price folds down nicely VERY WELL made and with a bungee does the job a treat

I am looking for something with inflated style wheels as i'll be taking mine on London public transport. Any recommendations?

Another vote for fishing trollies. They have large wheels so deal with bumps, are tough and dismantle, so they fit in the car. I use the Preston Innovations one. Works well.
