What do you use to carry lots of plan rolls?

For those of you that need to schlep multiple large sets plans back-and-forth, what do you use to carry them? A cart? A basket?

One of my friends just got carpel tunnel from trying to haul around plans in a small 2-wheeled cart. I've seen some other people use a child's wagon, which relieves all the gravity load, leaving only a pull handle.
 
I'll post a picture Monday, but we have to get them across the street for cold storage after 6 months post-C.O. We use a 2-wheeler, with a long wide base for hauling hay bales, with a big feed bucket strapped to it, about 30" diameter by 24" high? Works well, minimal effort. Yes, bought it all at a farm store.

An intern whenever possible ;)

Honestly, a four wheel cart around the office (the kind with two levels and small casters). Luckily, I haven't had to hand carry more than two rolls at a time out of the office without help. The office also has a two wheel dolly that folds to become a four wheel cart. Usually, plans get shipped (UPS, FedEx). Also, we deal with a plotting service that will deliver the plans.
