The WorkWagon's safe load rating is 800 kg (1,764 lb). Here's how to use that number in real life, and why it matters when you compare wagons.
Weight vs volume
Light, bulky loads like leaves and brush fill the deck before they reach the weight limit. Dense loads like soil, stone, and green wood reach 800 kg (1,764 lb) long before the deck looks full.
Quick planning table
| Material | Approx. amount at 800 kg (1,764 lb) |
|---|---|
| 22.7 kg (50 lb) feed or lime bags | About 35 bags |
| Seasoned hardwood | About ½ cord, depending on species |
| Concrete pavers, 30 × 30 cm (12 × 12 in) | About 70–80 |
| Loose topsoil | About 0.5 m³ (0.65 cu yd) |
Loading tips
- Keep heavy items low and centered.
- Spread weight evenly from front to back.
- Strap anything that can shift.
Comparing ratings
When you compare wagons, look for a published safe load rating rather than a peak or towing figure. Several popular electric utility carts list 1,000 lb (454 kg); the WorkWagon is rated for 800 kg (1,764 lb).
