A word on garden carts...the type with solid rubber tires
usually come with mag wheels rather than spokes. At Eagle Heights,
we broke 4 of 6 carts with mag wheels during their first season.
they don't hold up under a full cart load of dirt if you try to turn on a
dime or push it slowly along an uneven path. I forget the
manufacturer, but they told us that these carts are really meant for boat
docks. Stick with spoke wheels (which unfortunately all use
neumatic tires with inner tubes).
