Garden Cart vs Wheelbarrow
Walk the route before you read the cubic feet.
Quick comparison: Choose a four-wheel cart for a level yard and loads you want to set down. Choose a wheelbarrow for narrow paths, tight turns, and tipping into a bed.
Level ground, or a narrow path
How to choose
- Driveway, lawn, and a load you will leave sitting: cart.
- Gates, beds, and a slope you need to control: wheelbarrow.
- If the loaded cart is wider than the narrowest gate, the capacity does not matter.
What not to do
Do not pick the larger number on the label and then discover the tool cannot pass the path you actually use.
