SCH BCT Balance Cart Trailer (SCH BCT)

SCH BCT Balance Cart Trailer: Flexible Transport by Hand or Tractor

Moving heavy materials around gardens, farms and estates can demand considerable effort. The SCH BCT Balance Cart Trailer provides a more versatile solution. It combines a substantial carrying capacity with the option to move loads manually or tow them behind a garden tractor.

Unlike a conventional wheelbarrow, the load is balanced on both sides of the wheels. This helps reduce the effort needed when moving materials by hand. Inboard-mounted wheels keep the overall design compact, making the BCT cart useful where access is restricted.

A Balanced Design for Easier Handling

The positioning of the load is one of the SCH BCT trailer’s most useful features. Rather than placing most of the weight ahead of the operator, the cart distributes it across both sides of the wheels.

This balanced arrangement improves stability and makes heavy loads easier to move manually. It can be especially useful when transporting materials over longer distances around a property.

The wheels are mounted inboard beneath the body rather than outside it. This helps the cart pass through narrower spaces where other trailers might struggle.

Push It or Tow It Behind a Garden Tractor

Different jobs call for different ways of moving a load. The SCH BCT trailer can be pushed manually when manoeuvrability is important. For longer journeys or heavier work, it can also be towed behind a suitable garden tractor.

Converting between the two configurations is straightforward. The tow bar can be exchanged for a stable foot support when the cart is being used manually. This adaptable design lets one piece of equipment tackle a wider range of transport jobs.

A clevis hitch is fitted as standard for towing. We sell the SCH 50 mm Ball Hitch Attachment as an optional extra, providing an alternative coupling for a suitable towing set-up.

Generous Capacity for Bulky and Heavy Loads

The SCH BCT cart has a maximum carrying capacity of 500 kg (10 cwt). This makes it suitable for transporting a broad range of materials around gardens, estates and farms.

Its body measures 760 mm (30 inches) wide and 1,500 mm (60 inches) long. This provides useful load space while retaining the narrow profile created by the inboard wheels.

The cart itself weighs 95 kg and runs on 400 x 8 wheels. Its sturdy construction provides the strength required for regular transport duties.

Drop-Down Sides Simplify Loading

Loading bulky or heavy materials over a fixed side can be awkward. SCH addresses this with hinged wooden sides that can be lowered when required. Dropping the sides gives you easier access to the load bed, which can simplify both loading and unloading.

The wooden sides can also be removed completely. This provides extra flexibility when the shape or size of a load makes an open platform more convenient.

Once the job is complete, the trailer’s sides can be returned to their normal position for carrying loose materials securely within the body.
