Feeding is the chore that never takes a day off. Twice a day, the same route from the feed room to the stalls, the coop, and the pasture gate. Small savings on each trip add up to hours every month.
Why this job is harder than it should be
Carrying 22.7 kg (50 lb) bags by hand is how backs and shoulders get hurt. Hand carts tip on gravel and frozen ground. Starting a tractor for a few bags is slow, loud, and spooks animals.
How the WorkWagon helps
A month of feed in one trip
By weight, the 800 kg (1,764 lb) rating covers dozens of 22.7 kg (50 lb) bags — deck space, not weight, is usually your limit.
Quiet around animals
Electric drive has no engine noise or exhaust in the barn aisle.
Walk-along control
You stay on your feet beside the load, so you can stop, open a gate, and carry on.
Easy to hose off
Powder-coated steel deck cleans up after spilled grain, hay, and bedding.
Load planning
Approximate weights for planning.
| Feed bag | 22.7 kg (50 lb) |
|---|---|
| Small square hay bale | 18–30 kg (40–65 lb) |
| Compressed shavings bale | ≈ 18 kg (40 lb) |
| Feed bags at the 800 kg (1,764 lb) rating | Up to 35 by weight — stack within the deck |
Tips from our farm
- Load bags flat and interlock them like bricks so they don't shift.
- Keep the wagon parked and charged by the feed room so it's ready for every feeding.
- Bring it slowly around horses and livestock the first few times so they get used to it.

Common questions
How many feed bags can it carry?
The safe load rating is 800 kg (1,764 lb), so about 35 bags of 22.7 kg (50 lb) by weight. Stack them securely within the deck.
Is it quiet enough for horses?
It's electric, so there's no engine noise or exhaust. As with any new equipment, introduce it to animals slowly.
Can it carry hay bales?
Yes. Small square bales fit on the 1,500 × 800 mm (59.1 × 31.5 in) deck; stack and strap them so they stay put.
