Introduction
For the replacement, you can get an extra pair of wheels by buying new ones or use wheels that are in good condition from another cart that is not being used anymore. Just make sure that the wheels are of similar size to the old ones and that the hole is big enough to slide through the axle of the cart you’re currently using (some wheel sizes and center hole sizes may vary, so get a pair of wheels that are compatible with your grocery cart). Before starting, make sure your work area is open and free of any obstacles.
