    I still have a wheelbarrow. Very useful.

    I wouldn't want to put dirty soil in my nice green truck.

    As I see it you push a wheelbarrow and pull a truck-a wheelbarrow has one wheel a truck has four-might be more to go wrongimage

    You can't get pink trucks, or lilac, or maroon, or bright blueimageimage

    I have had manure in my wheelbarrow now - cleaimagened it up after though

    A truck should be more stable - a consideration if buying something to ride on.

    It is possible to push someone sitting in a wheelbarrow, but a bit risky, IMO.

    Also, you need to lift a wheelbarrow. A truck does not require any lifting, so can move heavier loads.

    I'm rubbish at driving wheelbarrows I'm toldimage I have wheelbarrows also and a two wheel truck
  • Gary HobsonGary Hobson Posts: 1,892

    Driving wheelbarrows is tricky, and not intuitive, because if you want to turn left, you actually move the handles to the right. And vice versa.

    The same considerations apply to driving supermarket trollies. I believe that 76% of the fatalities in supermarkets are caused by careless drivers.

    We are a 2 wheelbarrow family- only one failed its MOTimage

    I do have a sack trolley and a luggage trolley though

    I have a Gardeners World Live collapsable shopping trolley. Ideal for carrying a few small plants, when shopping at your GC, or around the garden. Only £10. I usually buy several each time I visit, to give as Christmas presents.
