For the larger plot, a garden wagon is indispensable.
Key features depend very much on the jobs you want to use it for—a bed that flips up makes dumping huge piles of green waste into the compost pile a whole lot easier; drop-down sides come in handy if moving heavy pots around the garden is important.
The original Vermont garden cart combines a steel frame with large steel wheels and axle that removes much of the effort from moving large loads.
The sleek steel-framed Handy (£299.99) is arguably the toughest wagon you’ll find with a raft of features including puncture-proof tires, a 300kg capacity and a tipper function.
The chicest wagon leapt to fame when used en masse at The Newt and Pig hotels. It weighs just 20kg, and the basket can also be detached from the trolley.
The no-nonsense steel Gorilla Cart ($159) can be pulled by hand or towed by an ATV or tractor for heavier loads (up to 1,000 pounds).
The Medium Gardener’s Supply Cart ($459.99) has big pneumatic wheels that will tackle rough terrain and a large capacity for loads, which can easily be tipped through the opening end panel.
