There’s no denying the time-saving potential of the humble wheelbarrow. It’s a useful tool to have on hand throughout the year, but can truly come into its own when growing season rolls around. The Builder wheelbarrow part of our Heavy Duty range of wheelbarrows and because it has a galvanised metal tub it is very popular for building use or for other heavy duty jobs such as landscaping. The Builder wheelbarrow is made in our Birmingham factory and we are very proud of it being manufactured in the UK. It has a extra strong double rolled edge pan which means it is an extremely sturdy barrow Designed for smaller DIY and gardening jobs, this wheelbarrow has a 78 L capacity which makes it easy to manoeuvre. It’s been built for everyday use, perfect for moving around soil, gardening tools, and other medium loads. The deep tray makes it easy to keep loading in material, making full use of the 90 L capacity whilst keeping things well balanced. It’s still not a heavyweight builder’s wheelbarrow, but when used with common sense it can handle pretty large loads.

First things first, you need to know what jobs you’ll be doing, can’t buy the best wheelbarrow for the job if you don’t know what job it’ll be doing. For example, you wouldn’t want a flimsy plastic wheelbarrow for removing heavy debris. Unless of course you were prepared to make more frequent trips. If you’re working on very uneven terrain, for example doing building work, you might want to choose a wheel with a wider width so that it can spread the load better and a pneumatic tyre that won’t puncture. The Smithfield Heavy Duty wheelbarrow can hold up to 175 litres of water, making it perfect for carrying liquids.When buying a wheelbarrow, you’ll also have a choice of either one or two wheels. This won’t make much difference to the load capacity, but it’s still worth considering. One wheel will make the wheelbarrow a lot easier to turn and navigate, but it’s more likely to tip over if overloaded than a two-wheel model We are known for making very high quality building products, and wheelbarrow is no exception, they are manufactured in the UK To a very high standard. This particular wheelbarrow has a metal wheel with pneumatic tyre making it perfect for heavy duty work, also the wheels are replaceable and we also sell spare inner tubes for wheelbarrow repairs.

Each barrow comes with either a painted or galvanised frame and pan which makes them ideal to be stored outside with the elements. Also each barrow will either be fitted with pneumatic or solid wheels. Pneumatic wheels are best suited for soft or uneven surfaces while solid wheels are better for smooth hard surfaces such as tarmac or concrete. It’s undeniably a vital piece of garden equipment, but there are a surprising number of different wheelbarrow designs out there to choose from – some well-suited to garden pottering, and others better equipped for commercial use. The Endurance Galvanised Wheelbarrow 150kg / 90 Ltr is made in our Birmingham factory and we are very proud of it being manufactured in the UK to the highest possible standard.My wheelbarrow arrived promptly. It is well made, very sturdy and durable. In addition it is also stable in use.. This is a good investment which I am sure will last for years.

Really good quality at a reasonable price. Delivery was excellent. Should have bought it ages ago as it would have saved time and effort Maximum weight load is also something to look out for. Smaller steel wheelbarrows will likely be able to carry more weight than a large-yet-flimsy plastic one! Sometimes it’s better to buy a smaller wheelbarrow of better quality, than buy something bigger for the same price and find that it breaks after a short time. There are some jobs where even a standard, large 95 L wheelbarrow just won’t do. If you’re looking for something bigger still, it might just be time to bring out the cavalry. However, plastic wheelbarrows can still be very strong and durable provided they have a strong steel frame for support. They also won’t rust, dent or distort like some metal models. I bought this to replace a barrow that I have had for 30 years. It's now on its last legs, but if my new one survives half as long I will be happy. Construction is now lighter, which is to be expected, however it appears to be well made and the pan is nicely galvanised.Also, one final thing to note is that the handles are a little shorter than some other wheelbarrows, this can affect how easy it is to tip out heavier weights because it alters the centre of balance. So far shifted 4 ton of top soil and 1 ton of gravel - easy and comfortable to use. Nice balance and appears to be top quality. I would buy again.

Introducing: the Kidsnado W Puncture-Proof Wheels Wheelbarrow; a 200 L wheelbarrow that will dramatically reduce the number of trips you need to make in the garden. And that’s no exaggeration! Gardening is usually first on the agenda, I don’t know about you but during winter my garden becomes like a scene from Narnia, overgrown loved and embarrassingly unkempt. I am very pleased with this wheelbarrow, it is narrow enough to get into awkward spaces and deep enough to carry a lot.For most gardening tasks, a capacity of between 80 to 120 L is should be adequate for most circumstances. As new it was missing a screw but still 5 stars. Unexpected fast delivery. As described, professional wheelbarrow. Moved already about 10 tonnes of dirt. No wear marks yet. Great product. Assembling the Walsall 85 Ltr Galvanized Wheelbarrow is relatively straight forward, with clearly detailed instructions. That said, there are times when pieces need a bit of coaxing into place, and it’s good advice not to tighten any of the nuts until they are all in position. Once assembled, this smart, galvanised steel wheelbarrow will be ready for the garden. Tyres. These can be solid rubber, plastic or pneumatic. Solid rubber or plastic wheels can’t puncture or go flat but they are not as smooth in use as an air filled tyre and can struggle on very rough ground. Pneumatic, air-filled tyres can puncture or start to go flat and need regular pumping up but if kept well pumped up will they are lighter and give a much more comfortable, cushioned ride over bumps and uneven ground. With a 65 L capacity, this wheelbarrow is suitable for most gardening jobs without being so loaded that it becomes unwieldy. If you have narrow pathways or tight corners to negotiate, the 62 cm width and one-wheeled design will help transport material without causing issues with manoeuvrability.
