[SML] Cart Logistics Question

Depends on how tall and tippy it is and do you have some nice large diameter casters underneath it.   Don't underestimate the amount of muscle a high school football team can apply to move objects around.

Subject: [SML] Cart Logistics Question 

I'm currently designing some set pieces that will need to be rapidly (think 5 minutes for up and down each) be set up by an unskilled crew, mostly parents and students, that needs to be driven around the midwest for show choir competitions. At the moment one of the pieces is a fairly hefty steel cart (think Tait style) with a sign on it and some structure that measures 13' long and 30 something inches wide. If I were going out with the unit, I'd have no problem saying that I would definitely be able to get this in and out of a dock height truck with a ramp and then up onto a stage, but with people that don't do this for a living, I'm worried that something this long and heavy would be difficult to navigate through a school.So, what's the longest cart you'd feel comfortable sending out with something like this?Thanks PJ
