I got something like this. It is a little dump cart. Maybe 10 - 12 years old. Pretty shot from weather. I store it outside for most of the year and park in the shed during winter. About time to replace it, but it still works.
What kind of garden cart do you have?
I have a similar wagon, a “Gorilla Cart”. It’s about 1 year old. So far a faithful servant.
Maybe on the list for Christmas.
My cart is a blue tarp. Put a 30 gallon pot on it and pull from the two corners for leverage. I am surprised to this day how well it works. I call it the blue yard train. It’s like a slip n slide ride for plants or soil remix piles.
I also have a gorilla cart that dumps. Plus a cheaper metal one that is made of grates so there’s no puddling if I leave plants on it during the rain.
I’ve got several different styles here.
I use the Radio Flyer wagon I got for my son almost 50 years ago
Gorilla Carts 12 cu. ft. 1,600 lb. Capacity Poly Dump Cart at Tractor Supply Co https://share.google/MfVhmVz04VgvjQEAH
Got the 12 cu ft, 1600 lb Gorilla cart a couple years ago. Great cart. Easily dumps the load.
I also have a large standard wheelbarrow.

When I got my Ryobi electric ride on mower, I also ordered a Brinly 10 cubic feet cart that I had to put together myself. It dumps and is made of really heavy plastic. I also got a magnetic pin that connects it to the mower. THAT is the best! I just pull it off and it is so much easier than any kind of Kotter pin. My property is very deep, and when I have to make multiple trips to the back, this has saved me!
I have a hand-me down plastic cart which is like a wheelbarrow design. It works fine but the only time I use it is getting mulch to hard to reach spots a couple times per year. When it expires which won’t be many more seasons I likely will do without for this one task.
I’m glad to hear that you like that one, it seemed like it was a good replacement for the “no longer in high-quality production” largest push cart I’ve used so far.
I love it! I will admit, it almost got the best of me when trying to put it together. I have never seen so many washers, bolts, etc., but the packaging was amazing and the directions were easy to follow (unlike the leaf sweeper!) but I didn’t seem to have enough hands at some points, nor did I have the “reach” to get the axle through while also having to add washers, etc. Of course, I chose to do it on probably the hottest day of the summer and my patience was waning fast!
It’s not really a push cart, although, if I go to the rear of the cart, it pushes pretty handedly. This is pretty handy. I need to get it out today, because I will be doing some pruning and weeding. If nothing else, it’s a great way to haul around all of the tools I always seem to need. The “Extractigator” alone seems to weigh 30 pounds, and I know I saw some sumac popping up somewhere, so you can bet it will be loaded. (I’m under 5’ tall and staring down 65 years of age, so I’ll take all the help I can get!)
I have what Richard has. I love it. So handy to be able to dump what’s in it and not have to shovel it out. I even hook it to my John Deere riding mower . . . with bungee cords! . . . and tow stuff around behind me. Very handy.
A box made of left over pieces of plywood. An axle made of 3/8" rod bent at 22+ degrees in the middle attached at the balance point.Two 26" bicycle rims on the ends. Couple of handles. It can take 10 gallons of spray or a harvest of squash. The only limit is my pushing or pulling legs.
Having the wheels canted out like an ox cart means no bent rims while tilted on my lumpy and hilly ground. Much more stable.
My Gorilla cart has held up to Ohio weather and my neglect for the last 5 years with no signs of functional deterioration. Highly recommend it.
I use one of those collapsible wagons from Costco. Don’t need anything heavy duty. Most uss it to haul around mulch bags.
hilarious!
I’ve got a couple garden carts, a wheelbarrow, a tow behind cart for my mower, and two gorilla carts. I pretty much only use the gorillas. I have chronic cervical and thoracic pain and can’t push a load anymore, but it’s almost like traction to pull a load behind me.
