What Trolley do you use

[Kevin Dean]

As I have to shift my bass rig  , PA & drum kit into my Van , I'm just looking to see whats out there .

my rig is light enough for a one man lift trip to the van - some of it has its own wheels and gets dragged

Small one for my usual shop but can downsize to a basket if I'm just nipping in for a few minutes.

No individual item is above 45lbs  but I'm trying to avoid multiple trips to the van .

A 2 ' square of 1" thick ply with biggish castors in the corners. A slot near one edge for picking it up.

A wolf heavy duty foldable hand truck, currently £70 at B&Q.  Decent size with a 100kg capacity and very sturdy.  Makes light work of moving my cabs and PA, including sub.  Also pretty good when going up and down steps when used with a restraint strap.

A  maplin 20 quid folding hand trolley. had it for years but the various joints are starting to loosen up so the wheels fold in on themselves after 30 yards or so.  might take a look at the B&Q offerings.

I got one of these for £20 from Bunnings Warehouse a few months ago. Could have probably made my own for cheaper, but can I be arsed? No. No I cannot.

My cab sits on it in a cupboard and get's wheeled out when the family is out.

I've got  most of the above , I'm thinking of something along the lines of a Rock n roller trolley .

one of these does the job for me.

I currently have one of these from Lidl but they don't sell them all the time.

It was really bought as a stand in for another type I use but which got knackered trying to manoeuver round a badly parked van. I never got round to replacing the stand in so far it has been fine, might find one on ebay or gumtree?

Cab (barefaced S12T) and cables/amp/pedals suitcase (travel trolley) have wheels, bass has backpack straps. One travel with all my gear. Drummer is thinking about getting a ROCKnROLLER cart from thomann for his drum kit and when we need to take our PA to a venue. They're very tough and versatile on multiple surfaces. https://www.thomann.de/gb/rocknroller_r6_mini.htm

One like this...

£18. Folds up flat, so it's easy to keep handy at home, in the car or on stage.

I'll take a look at their P&P to Portugal and let my drummer know if it's cheaper. Do you happen to have a link at hand for it?

I bought one of those, pretty good but everyone refused to use it except me preferring to carry everything so took it out of the van and the grandkids used it for a while to push each other up and down the garden path and then my son nicked it to put his generator on.  A good quality trolly.

I think at the time it was under £20 as well. Had no problems with it so far and it folds smaller than I was expecting. No children so hopefully will serve for a few years yet ;-)

[leschirons]

Can I suggest one of these? Really cheap. In fact, they're free.

[Bobthedog]

Rocknroller R6RT, but perhaps I should not post that; I actually have yet to use it. 

[ianrendall]

If you own a Trace then I’d recommmend one of these. One careful American owner.

They're not free everywhere, but you'll never have to pay more than £1.   However, they don't fold up so hard to get in the back of a Fiesta
