What are the dimensions of a Hand Cart

Sorry I just dont have the time to measure a complete Cart and put it on paper. I can give simple dimensions of
small parts.

How can I ship a Hand Cart

The only economical way to ship a complete Cart is Greyhound. The weight must stay under 100 pounds so in
most cases the wheels will need to be removed. I Believe there are a few destinations that will take 150lbs.
Greyhound link Have been turned down by agents before so it pays to call ahead before your buddy wastes
his time trying to ship. Sometimes it depends on there attitude or how dirty it is. According to the company
rules the Cart will fit in the Bus.

Of course the other way is all the Common shippers. In most cases the original bolts will need to be destroyed
to take the Cart apart.
