The Sherlock Black Flat-Free Poly Cart is built around a 60 litre poly tray and solid wheels that cannot puncture. It is rated to 100kg, which covers most of what a home gardener shifts in a weekend: potting mix, mulch, soil and the pile of prunings that follows.
What it does
-
Wheels that never need air. The 10 inch by 2.7 inch solid tyres are puncture proof, so the cart is ready whenever you are rather than sitting flat behind the shed.
-
Rated to 100kg. A 60 litre tray of wet soil or gravel is heavy, and the load rating is set with that in mind.
-
Frame built to be knocked about. Powder coated hammertone steel runs through the chassis and handle, a finish that hides scuffs far better than gloss.
-
Control under load. The steel handle carries fitted grips, so a full cart stays steady on a slope or a tight turn.
How to use it
Basic assembly is required before the first run. Load with the weight spread evenly across the tray rather than piled at one end, which keeps it tracking straight on uneven ground. Keep the total under the 100kg rating: a 60 litre tray of wet soil gets there faster than most people expect.
Rinse the tray out after use so mix and fertiliser do not set in the base, and store it undercover. Solid wheels need nothing beyond clearing the grass that winds around the axle. The cart measures 1300mm long by 730mm wide by 600mm high.
What it suits
Home gardens. Moving soil, mulch and potting mix from the driveway to the beds is the daily job this cart was built around.
Lawns and paved yards. Solid wheels roll well over grass, pavers and concrete, so clean-ups go quicker and there is no risk of a flat halfway through.
Regular landscaping work. It stands up to repeat outdoor use, and puncture proof wheels matter most to anyone working weekly rather than twice a year.
The tray does not fold, so this is not a cart that packs away into a cupboard, and 60 litres is a home garden capacity rather than a bulk cart for acreage. It is delivered Australia wide, with delivery from $29.95.
