    Picked a nice item today

    Rubbermaid 500 pound cart that folds up and stows away really nice.

    Rubbermaid Commercial Products 500 lb. Capacity Triple Trolley Hand Truck-FG4401-20BLA at The Home Depot

    $60 at Home depot. It is in pretty good shape. I would have thought it would have cost more, but very nice and compact. The handle folds flush to the cart and can stow away under a bench, or in the truck or hang on a wall.



    And free. I was outside and saw a neighbor down the perpendicular street to me had a large pile of stuff outside. I walked over to check it out to see if I needed to grab my truck. I saw this tossed on the pile. I pulled the handle out and loaded up with some bed rails and a couple of small appliances that I can strip down a bit.

    Looks to be a renter was kicked or something along those lines. Lots of good stuff out there that I don't have room for.
