10 Best Shopping Trolleys UK 2024 | Slimbridge, Hoppa and More

When it came to picking our number 1, there was a standout winner, and it was this pretty-much-perfect foldable offering. The trolley is thermally insulated and waterproof, to keep your fresh food and frozen goods chilled and dry. Plus, it has a subtle design that we're pretty sure everyone could live with.

That's not all though. It has a six-wheel design with the coveted stair-climbing functionality, and the bag can be detached so that you can use it as a separate trolley, should you require it. At 45 L, it also has a plenty of room for a decent stock-up at the shops.  

Sure, it's an out-there design, but not everybody wants to play it safe with single colours and classy stripes. And what's not to love about dogs? This playful trolley is more than just good looks though. 

It has a respectable capacity, two strong wheels and an appropriate ergonomic handle for those times when you end shopping that little bit longer than you anticipated. Plus, the bag is both water-resistant and thermally insulated, so you know your food is going to be looked after.

This super-compact and lightweight trolley is ideal for those who make smaller trips to the supermarket. It has a comfortable handle, but what we really like is those big, sturdy, rubber wheels that will suitably tackle many different types of terrain. 

On the back, there is a small zip pocket where you can store personal items. This is handy as you aren't required to take another bag for your wallet, phone or other personal items. This basket is also super-easy to store in the house too, thanks to its convenient folding capabilities. 

If you're someone who likes to get the absolute most out of every purchase, then you're going to love this 'Upgraded' shopping trolley from Winikeep. With a removable bag, you can use it as either a shopping trolley or hand-pulled truck, making it perfect for moving other heavier objects when you need to. 

The ingenuity, however, is all in the design. The platform is at a higher level than its competitors, which might seem trivial until you understand that this allows you to use the space to pack larger items. And to top it off, it has stair-climbing capabilities. 

This model from Sabichi is much easier to navigate and drive than most, plus you have the added benefit of never worrying about it toppling over thanks to its four wheels (providing you've packed it responsibly). It is made from premium materials, using a solid steel frame and durable polyester bag that is water-resistant. 

This trolley has a mammoth 60 L capacity, which makes it a solid choice for those that are looking to do a big shop or buy for a larger family. 

Made with comfort in mind, this shopping trolley from Argos has a thick, moulded handle. It also comes with the two tri-wheels that allow for it to be pulled upstairs, so you'll never have to climb with heavy shopping again. 

The bag can also be disconnected from the frame, providing more functional storage. Some users have found that the trolley can be quite loud when in use, so you might want to wait until your neighbours are awake before you start carting it around! 

If you're determined for your trolley to look as good as it functions, you'll be hard-pressed to find a more stylish product than this nautical-inspired number from Rolser. We're almost certain there'll be no remarks about looking like a Grandma while you're pushing this around. 

The product is waterproof but also comes with a drawstring fastener to ensure extra protection for the food inside. The only downside is that it's a little on the pricey side compared to other products with similar specifications. Still, if appearances are important to you, we're sure you'll be happy with this. 

This offering from Hoppa comes in a bunch of different colourways, so there's a design to fit most personalities. It has a respectable 47 L capacity, which is admirable considering how light it is when empty. It can also be folded flat when not in use. 

Furthermore, the trolley is covered in waterproof fabric and has a comfortable easy-to-grab handle for when you're pulling it around. It is worth mentioning that those who are on the taller side have struggled with this as it is rather short, so maybe give it a miss if you're over six foot. 

Now you can embrace the rustic country look even in your local Tesco with this wicker shopping trolley. The wicker used is of high quality and the company even have a clear environmental policy when it comes to producing their goods. 

The material is waterproof so it won't rot if it gets damp, although the weave and open top mean the contents aren't protected. This is certainly an acquired taste, which is one of the reasons it's lower on the list. Plus, it's easily the most expensive product, so you've really got to want to lean into this look to choose this product. 

If you're still not too keen on the aesthetics of the traditional shopping trolley, why not opt for something that looks a little unconventional? This removable offering from Slimbridge is actually more like a large tote on wheels, plus, it's quite a bargain. 

However, there'll need to be some sacrifices for the drop in price. Take the quality of the wheels – they're made from plastic and known to be pretty rigid, and therefore prone to breaking. Still, if you pack lightly and you're careful where you tread, you should be OK.
