That's a handy little system you've built there.
If you bolt a piece of waste pipe to the side of the trolley using exhaust U bolts.
You will have a handy pole carrier for that Unger. Just put some thing through the bottom of it to stop your pole going right through. Dai

Thanks

I got them from my local sign shop in Inverness.

Cost £15 for the two. Thats the original ones on the trolley in the pics!

I scanned them and printed another 10 of the big one and put them through my laminator. Then I put double sided tape on them and stuck them to all of my containers ;D

Dia, I am going to do that! I just never got round to it yet!

The only thing wrong with the trolley is that its a bit heavy :'(

Cant add too much more but will deffinatley add the waste pipe!

Cheers

Mine was a bit off balance to start with. It was OK when I had two full containers on it, but a bu--er when it was empty. I ended up putting the batery box between the wheels, resting on the axle. That improved things a lot. It's got a 30m hose reel on it now too. I wouldn't be able to do my round without that. Dai

Yes I dit cut it down and got it welded again.

I only cut it down because I had I fiat punto and it was too long even when the back seat was folded down.

I now have a van and wish I never cut it >:( But i'm sure I could get it extended again ;)

Yeah, I could have bought one but they are far too flimsy.

Got everything done including di vessel and resin and pole for £600!
