Does anyone know were i could get something similar to this trolley? I have so many crates i dont need anymore i just really need a flat trolley like this! But i feel £100 is so much just for a base!! I just need something to carry my crate which would have 1/2 pugs in it safely..along with light weight seats!!

anyone have any idea were i could get a 2nd hand one or a cheaper version?! I wouldnt usually need something like this as my husband gets his orders to carry everything! But hes working a few shows coming up and i dont fancy lugging everything myself! (lazy!)

Thanks in advance!

Ebay?

Have you thought about walking the dogs in whilst have your crates folder flat?

Then you could buy a foldable trolley:

I got one just before Crufts(from B&Q) and had a crate, a cooler box, big grooming holdall, 2 light weight chairs & my suit carrier!
It wheeled great over stones & rough ground & didn't tip up

Hay!

Thanks for your replies..
The link the the flat trolley on ebay above would be fab...Its just the wheels that look like they wouldnt go across grass to well, expecially if its raining which in Scotland it does alot! Its the champ shows im more worried about cause sometimes you have to walk so far!

Gemma- that looks a fab idea, that would probably work quite well. But i can just see myself pulling that along with leading my two naughty pugs which would end up tangled around  my legs!

Hmmm. the search continues!

I have no suggestions for a cheap one as they all cost around the same, from experience though do not touch the croft trolley it is so heavy and also vibrates something awful the folding wheels are just a pain trying to get them all down as you fold one the other open lol, my friend also bought one and she only ever used hers twice she hates it so much, mine is gathering dust in the garage.

Ahh thanks for the info on the croft ones. I need it to have quite low vibration as i know my bitch wont like that, my dog wouldnt care, nothing makes him worried....hes wild.

I would be willing to pay the price for something that was worth it, i just dont see the trolley base being worth £100!! Ive seen a few 2 berth trolleys i like at £300, but they look quite heavy?

Its a eye opener at shows seeing people using prams/push chairs, actually anything with wheels. Just shows you dont need to spend a fortune!

I use one from petcetera for the same price which I find excellent, might be worth keeping your eyes peeled for a second hand one.

I have their previous model which had a bigger base and it has been excellent.  3 yrs hard use.  I am going to get this new version as it looks like the wheels are easy to remove, those big wheels do not allow it to fit under benches.

At nearly 4 stone in weight i find their trolleys far to heavy to keep lifting in and out of car particulary at the end of a very long day and those wheels are just the work of the devil lol, after suffering with it for the begining of last year i was so pleased with the one i replaced it with from petcetera it is much more lightweight and much more comfortable on my wrist when im pulling it around.

I have a Light weight trolly (box alaminium frame)that I no longer use.  I used it for Am cockers
but they have all passed on now.It has big wheels that you can take off easy to pull on grass
