Is there a CART for hauling equipment IN THE FIELD ??

[Brian F Kobylarz]

An alternative to the Rubbermaid that provides a bit more protection from the elements - and in the same price range:

As far as the garden cart on Amazon someone recommended, there are models that have removable sides - well worth the extra 20 bucks or so.
Local hardware stores often have them in stock or a quick order.

Magliners (http://www.filmtools.com/magliners2.html) and the aforementioned Rubbermaids are what you'll find on pretty much every feature film shoot's camera truck as general purpose camera carts.

i'm also getting rid of this, not a lot of space but with the 10" wheels it will ride over everything.

For hauling equipment, carts with shelves are over rated imo. I have used lots of different carts for different purposes. but for just moving equipment around I'd add a second vote for the filmtools modded magliner http://www.filmtools.com/geminisenior.html.

You can always add shelves later if you'd like, and it doubles as a good two wheeler as well.

YOu can also get an Innovative Scout. Call Pat Bluett at Innovative! He's awesome. His carts are awesome! You'll love it!

I have used the RocknRoller R12 for some time. It folds nicely to get to the location. Expands to the size required that day. No air in the wheels to leak out yet runs as if they did. Very cheep all things considered just not in respect to the build quality. It has worked really well for me however, I have yet to take it over much rough terrain.

If you need a really low budget solution, a folding garden cart such as http://www.amazon.com/Collapsible-Wagon-Sports-Folding-Utility/dp/B003F1VW62/ref=cm_cr_pr_sims_t is fairly effective over semi-rough terrain. They are available at some Costco's for around $55.00 Mine has held up surprising well and has hauled gear and over 200 pounds of sandbags.

HAHAHAHA I'm so glad someone posted that robot.

Folding beach carts are SOP here in NYC...

This is what we use:
http://www.amazon.com/M20S-Mid-size...?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1349652687&sr=1-59

Large wheels for any terrain, holds up to 300lbs and pretty easy for two people to grab on and haul up hills.

For what it's worth...these carts seem to be built like little tanks...

Honestly, save for an Inovativ cart, it will last you for life. And if this is a career you plan to stick with, it's definitely worth the investment. Two strong dudes could push it up anything with semi-stable terrain, (grassy hills, no problem, gravel hills, not bad, just not rocky terrain and clearance of more than 8". If you want off-road, use a portable Laptop carry solution, unless you can't carry it, do as the others suggested and get one of those garden-carts with two giant wheels. That will help on the "rockier" terrain....

 

[Nick Morrison]

I have to agree, the Innovativ carts look pretty spell binding...

 

[Michael Notar]

perhaps some of these? I have two of these carts, big and small. Workhorses that go on every shoot, built strong, designed well,

This would be perfect for you. we used tons of these in the forests of Vancouver, hauling around Epic/3D packages… We did have a lot of other carts but these were really helpful. And cheap.

I use a small chinese blue garden cart and canvas "camping chair" bags to put loose stuff in with the tripod. The carts have mesh floors which are handy to tie through. The wheels throw water drops up through the floor. If they get rained on they rust pretty quickly as the steel has not been primed. If I was routinely going over rough ground with one I would add another axle in the centre so it will bridge deep ruts without getting caught, ie., a six-wheeler. They have a narrow track so easy to capsize on cross-slopes.

We got us an electric dolly. Its an electric quad with a metal top deck.
It reaches about 35 km an hour, is used for shooting but is also used for hauling material around.

It drives through mud and high grass without any problems.

Bad picture... but you get the idea. Works like a charm. Ow, drives about 5 houres before its empty.
