New Folding Trolley Carts: Perfect For Summer Festivals!

robin Products

Festival season is just about heating up in the UK, so you'll want to make sure that you have everything you need before you set of for a weekend of cider, music and the abandonment of personal hygiene! While I'm sure we'd all like to believe that we could survive Bear Grylls style, escaping the 'distractions' of the 21st Century for a few days, it turns out that packing for a festival is pretty hard work. Of course, it doesn't help that the delightful unpredictability of UK conditions mean that you're probably going to have to pack clothes for both torrential rain and blistering heat....

What's even harder, is when you actually get to the festival and have to abandon comfort of your air-conditioned coach, only to struggle with backpacks, tents and more, making the long journey to your pitch. If you've thought about buying a festival festival trolley before, you may have disregarded it as 'more hard work', with visions of wheels flying off without notice and leaving you stranded in the mud. We're here to prove you wrong, by introducing our new Folding Festival Trolley Carts, which are not only durable, but easy to store and transport!

Here are the benefits of our new trolleys:

Easy to Navigate - Both of our folding carts have swivel wheels, which means that you'll be able to easily change direction with ease!
Easy to Clean - We all know that festivals can get muddy, which is why the 600 denier polyester material on our carts is totally washable!
Perfect for Even Ground - Our folding trolley design is available with BIB BOY rubber wheels, which are ideal for navigating uneven terrain.
Easy to Store - Thanks to the ability to fold down our trolleys, you'll be able to transport and store them easily, which means no hassle with taking up space in your tent, or fitting it in a coach luggage compartment.
Heavy Duty Design - The sturdy steel design means that both the standard and BIG BOY trolleys can hold up to 70KG, which means that it can carry the weight of an 11 stone man! (Don't get any ideas about letting your friends carry you to the camp..)

See our trolley in action here:

Of course our folding trolleys aren't just suitable for festivals of course, they're also great for:

Gardening - Provides and easy means of ransporting plants, tools etc

Trips to the Beach - Getting all your beach gear to and from the car

Camping Trips - Great way to carry all your tents, sleeping bags, stoves etc.

Shopping - Ideal for transporting large items on foot (perfect for students moving into halls)

and more!
