Anyone had/got one of these trolleys?

Looks very sturdy to me I'd feel free to post the link, personally, it's not like you are posting recommendations in multiple forums here 20 minutes after signing up

I wish I had the ability to transport something like that to site. I'd camp in luxury!

[dvjj]

Whichever you go for, take good care of it whilst on site. Mine was nicked out of my tent on the Monday morning a couple of years ago whilst I was having breakfast! :angry:

I'm sure it was put to good use though

My purchase of one of these has become suddenly more valuable.

I suffered a collapsed lung on Friday night, have spent the last 3 days in hospital and am no longer in a position to carry a heavy rucksack loaded with crap across the site. I am hoping that the trolley is the lifeline I need, as suddenly getting to glastonbury is looking pretty tricky.

Anyhoo, 1 month exactly to recover, I'm sure that I'll be just famous and dandy, however my first thought once my lung had been reinflated (after "I could REALLY use a joint right now") was that glastonbury might have gone out the window.

Mate is thinking of getting one....

[froggygirl]

the one I ordered off of ebay arrived today and am chuffed to bits with it. £50 including delivery in two days....proper chunky wheels and very solid - don't want to 'spam' so if you want the link Pm me

I had a practice run with my Funky Leisure trolly at the weekend, and although you really have to jig things around to get it all to fit on, it wheels stuff around really easily. Looks like it was a good buy

[scappaflow]

Reckon a trolly is essential unless you are going to travel v light and / or do more than one trip.

If you are on a coach, then there's really no other option unless you are going to buy most of your food / drink onsite or have the strength of an ox.

[IAmTheWaffle]

I have done the coach and carry before, it was a horrible experience. I also ran out of booze quickly as I couldn't carry more then 2 cases.

I vowed then I would be getting a trolley AND THAT I SHALL!

It's not wroth the hernia and it pays for itself in that you should have enough provisions to last the festival and reduce the need to buy from the bars.

Where is the best place to buy one from?

[chris_top_her]

Anyone got anymore links? Dont fancy spending THAT much!!!

[Spindles]

There was an ebay one in this thread for 20. I don't think that, apart from the orange b+q one, you can find anything cheaper that will do the job. Even a sledge is going to set you back a tenner, basically.

Hi All, Does anyone have link for the Orange B+Q trolley....cant seem to find it. Thanks

[kitty_cat]

I was wondering if someone could post the link for the B&Q one as well... would be interested in buying one but don't have much funds so would have to be a cheaper one!!

Do you reckon you could get the funky leisure trolley on a bus if its fully loaded? We're going from Bristol Temple Meads station to site on the Weds morning (early) using the connecting shuttle. We did that last year, and it was very hassle free, but don't know if you'd fit on with a fully loaded trolley. Anyone ever done it?

[funkymonkeyboy]

trolly are ok but its much easier on your back with a wheelbarrow imho olso dont over fill a trolly as they work best on flat ground and glasto is defo not that

[bibby]

Just got back from B&Q good news is their trollies are now only £10 but seemed to have changed to yellow for this year will post a pic asap

[missgeevious]

I started off with granny trolley, but after trying it with my kids at a festival decided against it as it kept falling to the side

I then got given an old pram off of freecycle which i am intending to use

Just doing my bit for the enviroment

I am a poor student so I have brought a reasonably cheap trolley, i'm slightly concerned about how long it will last. I brought this one from Argos: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/9278840/Trail/searchtext%3ECAMPING+TROLLEY.htm

When I brought it a week ago it was on sale for £14.99 so if it does break, you get what you pay for I guess. Wish me luck!

Here is a bad quality picture of it stacked with Brothers:

I used the B&Q one last year - worked really well

Put it in lock up after unloading it. saw many others with broken wheels etc. i used bungee ropes but i think the cling film idea sounds better as my bungees broke!
