Wheels for lighting equip needed

->> I need a wagon or something similar to help transport my lighting gear, portable power, lightstand weights and camera gear from my truck to and from shot locations - usually customer yards or local nature spots. Been searching on Craigs list and see a lot of kids wagons but they aren't big enough. Any suggestions?

->> I have a couple of those too. I like them but they beat the heck out of the back of my SUV. I finally bought an oversized duffle to put it in so it would n't scrape up my vehicle so much.

The only other thing is when I show up with one of the MultiCarts at a hotel for a portrait shoot they make me go to the loading dock and use the service elevators.

A small P.I.T.A. ...

->> Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

I ended up purchasing a dump cart from Home Depot:

I needed the ATV wheels in order to haul my stuff across finished or raw terrain. Plastic tub and big rubber air filled wheels limits potential scratches on my truck and whatever I happen to be dragging my stuff by. The curled edges on the tub allow me to use bungie cords to hold down the payload.

->> I have one of the R-12 Multicarts. LOVE it. It folds down tinier than a normal hand truck, can be accessorized, and has 10 & 12" pneumatic tires that go over all kinds of terrain. It's not built like a Magliner, but it's so much more versatile.
