We have had lots of inquiries about this cart so I decided to take a pic and post it. It does wonders...:bigsmile:

The Unwritten Rule:
When you use it, you are the caretaker until the next person needs it.

Ive seen it fit into a minivan. However, here are the measurements.

3ft tall, 4ft long, 2ft-2inches wide. Kinda Bulky...

The downside of the cart is that you have to keep it until the next user! Makes an awesome portable workbench.

Yes, most everyone that has used it, signs it. It makes a HUGE difference with big tanks. We moved mine without any trouble with 4 people - and it's 3/4" glass!

Yeah, that thing is great for moving big tanks, especially if your stand is about the same height as the top of the cart. Of course it doesn't have to be a big tank, but you would look pretty silly moving a 1g nano on it! :bigsmile: I had a 240g glass tank that took several people to help carry it into my house. For some reason those people never talked to me again after that! :what_smile: When I had to move the tank off the stand to do some adjustments I got smart and borrowed the cart. I was actually able to slide the tank off onto the cart by myself as they were the same height and move it around easily. Like Bill said though, if you use it, you are stuck with it until the next person needs it!

I was the caretaker for 2 years because, 3 different people came and got it from me and when I came home, it was in the driveway...
