The Timber Ridge IRONWOOD ALL TERRAIN WAGON is built with an extra sturdy steel frame. While it weighs almost 25 pounds because of the sturdy frame, it’s still pretty easy to move about both in trolley mode because of the form when folded up as well as spread out in full wagon action. Camping trolleys come in different sizes, as we have already seen but this doesn’t determine how much they are able to comfortably carry in terms of weight. It is essential to look at the loading capacity of the trolley because if you try to overload it then the result will be you standing in the middle of a field with a broken trolley. Nobody wants that! This is definitely the best all-round full metal festival trolley. Its higher max load and steel frame make it an excellent choice for those planning on taking lots of gear to festivals.

The MOUNTALL Heavy Duty Foldable Garden Trolley is a versatile tool for outdoor activities. Its robust metal frame and waterproof liner ensure durability, while its large 90L storage capacity can handle a load of up to 90 KG. We’ve used our trolley for so many things over the years. And as child 1, then2, then 3 came along, it became more and more useful. Here’s some of the things we’ve used it for: Handle and Grip: Ensure that the trolley has a comfortable handle with a good grip. It should be long enough for easy pulling and pushing and preferably adjustable to accommodate different user heights. This Timber Ridge heavy duty camping wagon supports up to 80kg on hard surface.Unfolded internal dimensions are 90.1 x 46.7 x 30cm, giving you over 127.4L of storage.The trolley is easy to manoeuvre thanks to the castor-style 360-degree swivel front wheels, which also feature a safety brake. The trolley bed is made of 600D Oxford fabric and PVC, is easy to remove and clean, and is durable and tear-resistant. This trolley from Coleman’s made from heavy-duty polyester fabric with a removable, reinforced bottom and a strong steel frame allow loading up to 100kg. The handle is fully adjustable so you can have it at a height that feels comfortable for you and the front wheels rotate 360º giving you greater freedom of movement. To top it all off, the trolley is covered with a strong fabric that won’t snag or tear.

But wait! Not all folding festival trolleys are equal, as the graveyard of cheap trolleys found in the car parking fields of any major festival will tell you. Folding and Portability: If you have limited storage space, consider the size when the trolley is folded. You don’t want it taking up too much room when it’s not in use, and make sure it’s not too heavy to carry when folded. You’ll need something sturdy enough to carry your booze, tent, and camping gear for a fairly long distance.This model features robust wheels with tire stopper for ease of use, removable rubber band to secure your camping kit and the handle connects directly to the axle, giving you full control over the trolley. But don’t let that put you off your adventure, there are many camping trolleys that you can use to make moving your gear so much simpler. What’s even better is that a lot of these trolleys fold down when not in use so you can store them in your car without taking up any precious space. While that limits this to a kid, some beverages and some gear only, its strength lies in its utility around the house or from the car to the park. The Ironwood does pretty well as a shopping wagon for trips to Home Depot too.

Out of all three collapsible festival trolleys, this is definitely the best all-rounder. It is a great option if you don’t have to take too much stuff and you are short on car space. A broken trolley with tiny plastic wheels at a festival – this type of trolley are NO GOOD for carrying drinks + camping gear across fields. We especially like the heavy duty rubber wheels on this trolley, which rotate 360 degrees. This makes it great for trips to the zoo, park or beach, making it easy to manoeuvre around even when it is busy. The type of wheels that your trolley needs will depend on where you are planning to take it. If you regularly head off to remote areas that have demanding terrain then the last thing you want is something with weak castor wheels that loosen and fall off at the first sign of a bump in the road. This two wheel option offers a cheaper, sturdier alternative to the trolleys mentioned above. The big caveat is, it’s much better for shorter journeys as you need the upper body strength to keep it upright. If it falls over, your precious cargo might be at risk.
