Choosing the Right Foldable Trolley

A good foldable trolley should suit what you regularly carry, where you use it and how much storage space you have. Look at load capacity, wheel design, folded dimensions, braking, handle comfort and how quickly the cart opens and closes.

A trolley used mainly for grocery shopping may have different requirements from one used to move stock, equipment or office supplies. If storage space is limited, a cart that folds flat can also make it easier to keep in a vehicle, cupboard or storeroom.
