What kind of cart do you use?

[justinthedeeps]

One of these from Costco. $89 right now. I routinely take 2 steel 100s, a pony, 30lbs lead, scooter, BP/W, and my extra crap. Occasionally I take 2 divers worth of gear but only 2 tanks still.

Nice, the under-$100 option seems best for anywhere urban, where it could be adopted by new owner while you're underwater. Bike lock it maybe? Or get a submersible one?

I often leave mine above water with nobody to watch it. Most sites I use it at are not high foot traffic. At the sketchy ones I walk it back to my truck once done portering gear.

At springs, you have to take a cart back to your vehicle, if you are not trying to give it away. Have folks used beach carts like this? Do they get top heavy with a tank?

This looks smart for having fatter wheels, but would still be better with a larger radius.

Maybe steal the wheels off a youth sand bike?

I would get this model. It uses rubber tires. Maneuverability and longevity are better with rubber tires.

Looks robust AF, but does it fold up?

Only the sidewalls - fold down flat.
Tire-to-base do not fold.

This is the gold bar standard at MotoAmerica races to ferry wheels back and forth between our paddock and the tire tent.

Works a treat for a twinset, two deco bottles, a DPV and a boat crate. I can park wherever without worrying about schlepping back and forth. Would easily handle two ST divers (reasonable ones anyways).

I use a bicycle trailer I got for $10 on marketplace. Carries 3 tanks and a DPV over fairly rough terrain. Also folds flat if needed. Can lift it with one hand.
Only modification is a old windsurfing boom as a handle. Looks crappy enough to not get stolen so far.

I tried that one... it worked great for pushing gear, but it did not fit in my car well. Is there one with pneumatic tires that folds flat?

My wife uses a cart model Husband 1.0, which complains, bitches about the heat, the distances and the weight.

A wheeled cart should be a superior upgrade. Duh!
