Skip fell off my dumper today so I'm scrapping it lol. A roofer gave me this about 2 years ago after he built his extension. Should I get him to pick up or just leave for pickets?! 1592396246353995027562901531505.jpg

Typical, always something to kick you when your down.
Most relied on, machine on site breaks down and some arseholes steel the wheel

Btw how long do those belle bad boys last because it would need to be about 20 year to be worth the dough with how long I get out of a barra

I’d be making a warranty claim off the roofer - definitely not fit for purpose.

I screw them back down with tec screws, get a good bit longer out of them.

Barrows get killed off easily so need to extract as much use out of them.
A barrow is excellent value for money based on what they shift.

Wheel barrows all seem to have s**t build quality I am surprised you salvaged the wheel to go again I usually fit a better wheel, tyre, bearings & axle from new.

Don't worry it's an aftermarket replacement wheel. First one went within a few years. I tried to claim it was unfit for purpose to manufacturer but as you can see I run on recycled stone!
