Remedy for the Load/UnLoad Pain

Problem Statement:
  • Everyone goes shopping
  • Everyone looks for a “decent” cart – one that is clean and one that has smooth rolling wheels
  • Everyone, usually, shops moderate to heavy. Light on occasions
  • Everyone hates to carry these moderate to heavy bags home. At times there are multiple back and forth trips. Living in a multistory apartment makes it worse.
  • Everyone is, usually, troubled
Use Case: 

One should be able to
  • Drive to a store, pull out the cart from the car boot, load it up at the store, and push it back into the car.
  • Drive home, pull out the cart, push it home and unload it.
Solution:

A Collapsible Shopping Cart
  • Having a wheel mechanism that is similar to that of an “Ambulance Stretcher”. One should be able to push the cart into the car, folding the wheels and pull the cart out of the car, unfolding the wheels.
  • Having custom length breadth dimensions. Depending on the car model, boot space and customer preference
  • Having optional collapsible sides. In case one doesn’t want the cart to take up too much space in the boot, he can choose to collapse it completely to a height the size of a laptop/office bag, length and breadth per ones preference
  • Having a thin, light and yet a sturdy frame
  • Stretch Goal: Having the ability to climb stair cases
Value:
  • No more lifting. Reduces effort and time spent
  • Help ease the shopping pain, for men at least
