I had one of these when I was doing site work but didn't last long and more trouble than it was worth.
Better to get normal sack barrow and modify it.

Is it ally construction or steel?  Mine is a bit rusty.

I used to have one and used it a few times, the catches are plastic or have plastic housings and the wear out which means that as you are pulling the thing it will try and fold on itself. Don't bother with them.

OK thanks Arash.  Was a little worried that 70kg load capacity for 60kg drums was a little close anyway.

I would get something like this:

If it is meant to stand 200kg, it might occasionally manage 60kg!
