handcart

handcart
Noun
pl: handcarts

This term describes a utilitarian tool designed for short-distance transport of heavy loads. It is most commonly associated with industrial, warehouse, or gardening environments. While similar to a wheelbarrow, a handcart typically features a flat bed and wheels positioned beneath the load, whereas a wheelbarrow often has a deep basin and a single front wheel.

In modern urban contexts, the word may refer to street vendors' carts used for selling food or goods. It carries a neutral, descriptive tone and is used across all registers, though in highly technical logistics, terms like "trolley" or "dolly" might be preferred depending on the specific design of the vehicle.
