It holds 120 litres of water which I fill using a 12v 75 litre per minute transfer pump which fills this barrel up, in 2 minutes 30 seconds.
Its excellent to move around now I have got it balanced, It goes down all the back alleys that I have so far come across with the greatest of ease, the only problem that I have come across is the hose reel, but thats being replaced with one that can rotate 180 degrees and be locked into various positions, it should also reel in faster.

This trolley is for those who need a trolley that can reach the house that needs cleaning and they can't park close to it.
Also most other trolleys only hold 25 or 50 litres of water, which I have found is usless when I have 10 houses to clean and I have to keep going back to my vechicle for water, because 50 litres is only good enough for 4 houses.
An example of this happened last week, I have a road where I clean 7 houses front and back, well doing the front is a breeze but to do the backs I have to go down 1 alley for about 100 yards then I have to go across the back of these houses though another alleyway for 300 yards or so, then I have to go up their back gardens 75 yards and some have very big steps to gain access into their gardens.
Now I have been doing these houses for 18 months and it use to take me up to 90 minutes to do these houses, after keep on going back to fill up with water at least 3 times and walking what felt like a mathron, but last week it was like winning to pools, the trolley went down the alleyways with the greatest of ease, I left the trolley in the alley and ran the hose up the gardens and finshed the whole lot in 30 minutes.
Which is not bad now considering when I priced the job up in the first place it was set at 90 minutes of work, which I can now do in 1/3 of the time.
Since I have been using this trolley I have found that I can complete my round by upto 25% faster than before.
