Heavy-Duty Steel Tow-Behind Dump Cart with 800 lb Load Capacity","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 16-cubic-foot tow-behind dump cart is the workhorse accessory of any acreage property. Where a wheelbarrow tops out around two cubic feet and a typical compact garden cart stops near eight, the 16 cu. ft. capacity moves a meaningful load: roughly three wheelbarrows of mulch in a single trip, a yard of topsoil per round, or two stacked face cords of split firewood from the shed to the brush pile. The 800-pound rated load capacity is designed for the dense materials that actually fill an acreage owner's day — wet sand, gravel, and saturated mulch — not the lightweight grass clippings that inflate manufacturer cu-ft ratings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bed and frame are welded from 14-gauge steel, finished in a corrosion-resistant powder-coat that resists rust through multiple seasons of outdoor storage and wet-load exposure. The bed sits on a pivot mechanism with a quick-release lever at the operator end of the tow handle: pull the lever, the bed tips forward, contents dump cleanly without the operator dismounting from the tractor. Once empty, the bed returns to the level position automatically and the lever re-engages with a positive click.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pair of 16-inch pneumatic turf tires support the loaded weight without compacting soft ground or rutting wet lawn surfaces. The tires are fitted with bushings rather than sealed bearings, allowing field service if the cart sees decades of use. The hitch is a universal pin design that accepts the standard rear hitch found on most lawn tractors, riding mowers, zero-turns, ATVs, and UTVs — owners with multiple tow vehicles can move the cart between them without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmpty weight is approximately 95 pounds, light enough for two adults to handle for storage moves but heavy enough that the cart tracks predictably behind the tow vehicle without bouncing or wandering at speed. The bed walls are 14 inches deep, tall enough to retain mulch, leaves, and gravel without spillage on bumpy terrain, but low enough that loading from a wheelbarrow or shovel does not require lifting overhead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor property maintenance, the dump cart is the accessory most owners use weekly: hauling brush to the burn pile, moving compost to garden beds, transporting tools and supplies between outbuildings, collecting sticks after windstorms, and ferrying firewood up from the wood lot in fall. Combined with a tractor-mounted bagger, broadcast spreader, or aerator, the cart turns a single tow vehicle into a complete property maintenance system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hitch and steel construction allow safe towing at typical lawn-tractor speeds (up to 5 mph) over uneven ground; the cart is not designed for highway or extended off-road use beyond the property.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Agri-fab","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42771593461854,"sku":null,"price":239.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1159\/9138\/files\/7102N1XhOvL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1778943717","url":"https:\/\/sparroo.shop\/products\/16-cu-ft-heavy-duty-steel-tow-behind-dump-cart-800-lb","provider":"Sparroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
