Rolling Carts * PLEASE HELP *

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for some ideas on how I can take my scrapbook stuff to crops/retreats. I'm getting tired of making numerous trips to the car to carry everything in. : )

What rolling totes or carts do you use....if you use them? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Would love to see pictures too if you don't mind.

When I was going to crops, I used a tool bag from Creative Memories and something similar to the Bo Bunny rolling cart (got it from Costco and it came with a cover that added pockets and a cover to your contents).

The Bo Bunny style is good as paper in Iris boxes fit nicely but the cart is huge - so got rather heavy if I put tools and paper in the cart.

I've seen some people carrying these. The only drawback to this one is that it takes up too much space to open up.

I have a cart like the Bo-Bunny Rolling tote. I take that and a Rubbermaid tub (ordinary storage tote). The tub slides under whatever table I'm at and has my page kts and such while the tote carry extra tools and such.

I have an old, ugly CM gigantor. That thing would hold a VW beetle.
Here are a few nice ones. They make them so pretty now!

I have a couple, large one that will hold a lot of stuff, but sometimes it too heavy for me to get in and out of the car. And a medium one that will hold enough for a short crop. Both have wheels and handles and are easy to roll. But mostly, I scrap at home, so they are hardly ever used.

Crop In Style XXL

• corrie fan Said:

I use 2 of these rolling crate-totes. It is easy to stack an extra shoulder tote on top and roll all in. Theses rolling crates fold up flat for storage. I also have a JoAnns black rolling tote which I rarely use because the two crate-totes hold so much more and are great to "work out of" at a crop......... I got mine at office max.

Love my Crop-in-Style XXL too! It does get heavy, but it sure holds a lot. I can stack my cutting mat on it, slide the Crop-in-style Jr. bag over the handle and usually carry one tote bag somewhere on there too while I'm rolling it where I need to go.

I have the crop in style LX (smaller than the NaNavigator or XXL). I believe I'm the only person in the world who has one.

I also use a crop in style tote, AND tote-ally tool tote.

There are lots of totes available now.

I have the All my memories Tote ally cool tote
and the fiskars ultimate Rolling tote.. I love both!

I seem to have to make three trips everytime I go to a crop. I have the Mimi large rolling tote with the scrap tote which I keep on top when transporting. The rolling tote has my tools in it. I use the Toteally cool bag on my work table at home and can just drop it into the large wheeled tote, plus lots of other stuff.

The Travelmate Scrap tote has all my paper in it and embellishments.

In the Sizzix rolling tote is my Big shot, dies I want and ink pads, glimmer mist, etc.

I also have the AMM shoulder bag (tote 3) which I put my lunch/snacks in and ott light.

I have the old style Creative Memories cube tote, with the two sections inside and pockets on the outside, plus the bag that sits on top of it. Then I have some plain old tote bags that carry 12x12 supplies. If I go to an all day crop, I usually take my cube and maybe a little tote bag. If I go to a weekend crop, I need the cube and the bag that sits on top of it. If I go to a crop that lasts only the evening (like Friday night crops), I can usually get by with a couple of tote bags or the bag that goes on top of my cube. Unfortunately, I don't think these CM storage options are available any longer. I have heard the best stuff about the XXL tote from other people at crops.

I use my Crop in Style XXL - in fact I store my paper in it all the time!

I use my Navigator XXL tote, plus my Lazy Scrapper. If my stuff doesn't fit, then I don't take it. On occasion, I will bring extra items in an art bin, but those will stay in the car, and are just in case I finish up what I brought to work on before the crop ends. That has never actually happened, lol!

I use the Crop in Style Navigator, for most of my tools and bins, a Sizzix Sidekick bag for the Sidekick and the Sizzix case that hold four cases of Sizzlets. I carry paper in a totebag. Baby Cricut I carry in it's box and I take the Gypsy. All this will be loaded into my car for an all weekend scrap retreat this weekend. YEAH!
