A container with an axle-less wheel assembly can include: a substantially hollow body including a first wheel retention portion and a second wheel retention portion; and a wheel assembly including a first wheel including a shaft continuously formed with the first wheel extending from a center portion of the first wheel, and a second wheel including a shaft continuously formed with the second wheel extending from a center portion of the second wheel. The first wheel can be rotatably secured in the first wheel retention portion when the shaft is inserted into the first wheel retention portion, and the second wheel can be rotatably secured in the second wheel retention portion when the shaft is inserted into the second wheel retention portion. The first wheel can be uncoupled to the second wheel such that the first wheel and the second wheel operate independently from each other.

A wheelbarrow having an adjustable handle. The wheelbarrow has a bucket portion having a pair of sides and an axle accepting portion therein. An axle member is provided for insertion through the axle engagement member. The axle member has a pair of outer peripheral ends spaced on either side of the pair of sides. A pair of handles are pivotally attached to each of the pair of outer peripheral ends for allowing the handle to pivot away from the bucket portion of the wheelbarrow. Each side of the wheelbarrow has surfaces defining a plurality of handle engaging areas such that the handle may selectively be engaged in an area at a first position and selectively disengaged to move the handle to a second position. Each handle has a handle end portion which includes grip portions corresponding to the number of positions for the handles wherein each grip portion is configured at an angle for being substantially parallel to the ground when in a corresponding position in a selected corresponding slot in the wheelbarrow.

A semipermanent enclosure for a wheelbarrow is used to allow building contractors, installers and the like, some of which already have wheelbarrows, to affix the enclosure to the wheelbarrow in a convenient manner for use as a semi-secure storage box which may be left on site and accessed relatively easily. The enclosure has a plastic body having a dome portion surrounded by a wheelbarrow edge engaging periphery portion. The dome portion rises upwardly from the periphery portion so as to increase storage space there underneath, especially for tools, equipment and the like piled above the edge of the wheelbarrow. The periphery may comprise a forward engagement which locks under the front edge of the wheelbarrow rim and which are secured at a rear thereof using fasteners penetrating the periphery and the adjacent rim of the wheelbarrow. The periphery may be sized and shaped to suit most commercial wheelbarrow rim sizings.

A beach trolley includes two lateral arms, a central arm therebetween and a pulling arm that is aligned with the central arm. Each of the two lateral arms and central arm having a removable inflatable wheel at one end and being joined at the other end for pivotal movement between a trolling configuration wherein the two lateral arms and the central arm generally lie within a same plane and a compact configuration wherein the two lateral arms and the central arm are generally parallel. The pulling arm is joined to the two lateral arms and the central arm for pivotal movements towards and away the two lateral arms and the central arm. The beach trolley further includes a flexible seat attached to the arms to form a) a seat therebetween when the two lateral arms and the central arm are in the trolling configuration and b) a bag therewith when i) the two lateral arms and the central arm are in the compact configuration and ii) the pulling arm is pivoted so as to be generally parallel to the two lateral arms and the central arm.

Wheelbarrow auxiliary or modular attachments that can include auxiliary storage devices, transport/stability pins, lids/covers, seats, stabilizers/struts, other storage/support devices, auxiliary power (outlets, charges, etc.), batteries, cupholders, tub extensions/baskets, device holders, attachment holders, counterweights, stabilizer wheels, quick connection/release mechanisms, etc. In various embodiments, one or more modular attachments or devices can be selectively added or attached to a wheelbarrow as needed. In some embodiments, the modular attachments or devices can be included with the wheelbarrow from the onset. In other embodiments, modular attachments can be added to the wheelbarrow later, including as a kit.
