The Wheel Burro
Gives You The Power To Move Heavy Loads Quickly and Safely
The Wheel-Burro from Irwin is the safe, efficient way for one worker to move loads as heavy as 1,000 lbs. quickly and easily.

One worker can easily move a full load of tools, components and material safely on grades up to 10 percent.
