Have you ever seen a motorized wheelbarrow? Wow I could have done with one of these last summer when I hauled stones of brick from an old wall out of my garden last summer. I can tell you a 100 yard walk with a wheelbarrow full of bricks does no good for your back.

A motorized wheelbarrow may also be known as a micro dumper/micro digger or toe-hoe, it has 4 wheels and a hydraulic tipping system.

The first motorized wheelbarrow was introduced in 1986 and had 2 wheels like the convential wheelbarrows we are used to seeing. This though obviously had to be supported by the user and was not very user friendly hence the development of a 4 wheel electric powered wheelbarrow.

Muck truck has become the most popular micro dumper (pedestrian). It is a 4-wheel drive and the user walks behind it. The machine is capable of shifting upto 500 lbs of material and it can navigate most surfaces/terrains. This baby is ideal for a landscaper or gardener it copes easy with anything you throw at it - mulch, trees, soil, bricks etc.

It can go forward in 4 different speeds and can also reverse, this is all controlled via the operator using a hand throttle. Its motorized wheel barrows size also allows it to fit through most standard doors/gates or fences.
