Looking for something with tires that don't get flat, can easily move heavy loads (dirt, concrete blocks), etc. Appreciate any recommendations.

Several hundred pounds? What are you hauling.

I have a gorilla cart that I've used to move several trailer loads of dirt with no complaints.

Ok maybe several hundred pounds was an exaggeration, haha. Assume ~100 lbs then.

The Kobalt at Lowes (flat free) is the best single wheel wheelbarrow Ive ever used. Going in 5 years being stored outside leaning against my fence and it's still going strong. Ive never had a two wheel wheelbarrow/cart but I may add one to the stable if I can find flat free.

I like my Home Depot Rubbermaid Commercial wheelbarrow, two wheels. New models have solid tires. About $160.00

I was getting on to say this exact cart. I have moved probably 30 yards of topsoil in this thing over the years. Countless loads of sticks/leaves,limbs etc, and just pulled up all my wood and tile floors and used this thing to get it all out to the "bagster." I lucked up and found it on a resale site, but it's worth every penny if you buy it new.

The heavy commercial Jackson’s with the solid core tire. I have a dozen and they work best. Or go buy a two wheeled Reeve’s roofing wheelbarrow at a roofing supply.

I bought this True Temper flat free wheelbarrow in the last couple of years and it hauls a lot of stuff from dirt, mulch, construction materials and ripe rap with no weight/capacity issues. All steel, including the handles.

I have the same one, it's more than enough for heavy work. I've piled mine with bags of concrete and compost and zero rust. Just rinsed with the hose and some WD40 gel sprayed on the wheel axle.

Have had the same one for a number of years, has been great. I can haul three 50ib bags of Readymix with no problem, love the no flat tire.
