    I've a "garden cart," they are so useful.
    I cut off one side off the handles so I could use it with or without the big plastic container
    But it's rarely used now, the last time was when I closed our koi pool, to transport the fish to their new home, two doors away.

    I've also a sack truck. I needed when bringing in the fountain from the drive from the pallet where the delivery guy left it.

    Riley do you miss your pond? It was really outstanding and so many beautiful fish as I recall.
    Your cart looks very handy for moving around heavy water, rocks etc.

    Well, I had the fish for well over thirty years. They needed a lot of attention. But I can still go to see them any time I want, they're only a few yards away. But to be honest I rarely do. I just "moved on."

    I agree fish do require attention and water balance, muck, temps etc. once the water is balanced it’s easy until the next winter arrives.
    30 years is a long time to have a pond and I bet your neighbors are happy to rehome the beautiful koi .
