Builders & Heavy Duty Wheelbarrows

The type of wheelbarrow required will largely depend on the materials being moved, the load involved and the demands of the working environment.

Standard builders wheelbarrows provide a practical option for routine construction and site work, while heavy-duty models are designed for higher loads and more demanding repeated use.

CID's range includes steel wheelbarrows alongside the heavy-duty Rhino Barrow, providing options for different levels of site work.

Standard Wheelbarrows

For everyday material handling, standard wheelbarrows provide a practical way to move tools, materials and site supplies.

CID's Silver Standard Wheelbarrow combines an 85-litre galvanised steel tray with a tubular steel frame and maximum load weight of 100kg, making it suited to general construction and site applications.

Heavy Duty Wheelbarrows

Heavy-duty wheelbarrows are suited to more demanding workloads where greater capacity, strength and repeated commercial use are required.

The Rhino Barrow sits at the heavy-duty end of CID's range, combining a reinforced HDPE tray with a steel frame, 100-litre capacity and load capacity of up to 400kg. It is designed for demanding highways, construction, rail and civil engineering applications, including concrete and asphalt work.

Wheelbarrow Capacity & Load Rating

Capacity and maximum load weight are important considerations when comparing wheelbarrows for professional site use.

The Standard Silver Wheelbarrow provides an 85-litre capacity and maximum load of 100kg, while the Rhino Barrow increases capacity to 100 litres with a maximum load capacity of up to 400kg.

Checking both capacity and permitted load helps ensure the wheelbarrow is suited to the materials and frequency of use required on site.

Pneumatic & Puncture-Proof Wheel Options

Wheel type can also affect how a wheelbarrow performs across different site conditions.

Pneumatic wheels provide cushioning when travelling across rough or uneven ground, while puncture-proof wheels remove the risk of flats and reduce maintenance where sharp debris may be present.

Replacement wheelbarrow wheels are also available for compatible models. Check wheel and axle dimensions against the relevant product information before ordering a replacement.

Wheelbarrows for Construction & Site Work

CID's wheelbarrow range supports a variety of professional applications, from general movement of materials through to heavier construction and infrastructure work.

Standard builders wheelbarrows provide an all-round option for routine handling, while the Rhino Barrow is designed for more demanding construction, highways, rail and civil engineering applications.
