ABSTRACT:
A utility cart includes an open upper bin or container, with an open lower storage shelf disposed immediately below the upper bin. The lower shelf floor also serves as a support for the cart when it is placed in a generally vertical rest position. Wheels are provided at the rearward portion of the cart, allowing the cart to be moved on the wheels with essentially the entire weight of the cart being supported by the wheels while in transport, thus precluding any substantial requirement for the user to lift any significant portion of the weight of the cart and/or its contents. The cart may be molded or cast of plastic material as a single, unitary component with the exception of the wheels. The cart is particularly adapted for laundry use, with the upper basket being used to contain clothing and the lower storage shelf being used to contain laundry supplies. However, the cart is also readily adaptable for use in performing other chores and tasks as well.
