US company Pivot-All Motion Tools unveiled the ergonomic Pivot-All wheelbarrow at the World of Concrete 2024 event in Las Vegas last week.

It features patented pivoting handles designed to improve user balance and comfort by allowing use of the same grip during transport and unloading, rather than having to awkwardly switch to dump.

The innovation has been available through US partners since at least 2018, including Milwaukee Wheelbarrow and Precision Pivot Haul Wheelbarrow (around £420 for 3).

US company Simply Innovate created a similar product Simply Dump It Pivoting Wheelbarrow Handles, available since at least 2012, that could be attached to a standard wheelbarrow.

  1. Good evening

  2. Hello, my husband has 4 wheel barrels. He is 66 and tries to work like he’s 26. I’d like to know if the pivot handles be bought to use on other wheel barrel handles? If so, where can I buy them, please.

  3. Where can I buy just the pivoting handles?
    Husband is 66 and thinks he’s 26.
    I think if he uses these on his 4 wheel barrels it would save his wrists, back, arms , shoulders and neck. The whole body strain. He’s a worker but getting older and needs the extra help. I want him to have things more easy to manage. Thank you.
