Hire a Sherpa HA HA HA
Carl, easier than you think. When we get to our location, collage kids are looking for a buck. I get them to strap on the Lowepro Protactic with everything I need at the correct height and no stooping. Beside we pay for their admission into the parks, food etc, it then becomes an adventure as well as a learning experience for them.

I want to pick the minds of UHH experts! I am looking for suggestions and advice on what you may utilize as a "rolling cart" to transport gear when at a location with good enough surfaces to do that. I have looked at tool caddies, grocery carts, and rolling beach coolers, all of which may be an option, but there must be some great ideas from the photographers posting here. Thanks for the help!
I have a re-purposed wheel chair. I can carry a lot, with handles similar to a rickshaw. The large wheels make crossing rough terrain easier.

If I'm taking my 500 with tripod etc. as well as another camera I use a baby carriage I found at Target. I believe I paid about a hundred dollars for it. It has 10" pneumatic tires that detach to allow collapsing for transport in trunk or back deck. I can stash one of my Thinktank bags on the seat horizontally, it just fits.
Happy Shooting

My stuff goes in a carry on type suitcase with 4 wheels. I have wheeled into classes with it and it has been great.

I use and highly recommend a Pelican case. Waterproof, nearly indestructible and comes with foam padding and dividers for custom configuration.

I, too have a pelican... pricey, but near indestructible.
