A wheeled carrier for hauling logs or the like comprising: an elongated arcuate panel including a pair of open ends having sides essentially symmetrically tapering from a generally central apex position towards the ends; an axis secured to said panel and having a structure defining an arcuate groove contouring the bottom of said panel wherein said panel lodges; a pair of wheels supported by said axis and rotatably carried thereby, and a handle bar connecting to and extending upwardly from said panel to facilitate the operation of the carrier when the same is gripped by a user, said axis is secured to said panel between said central position and one of the ends; a log retention member transversing said panel from the generally central position of both sides; said retention member comprises a rod configurated to a U-shape and having its ends secured to the apices of both sides to retard the buckling of the sides when a large number of logs are loaded in the carrier; a prop means secured to the bottom of said panel in proximity to the opposite end of said panel from where said axis is proximately secured; said handle bar is secured on the bottom and at the opposite end of said panel from where said axis is proximately secured, said prop means being secured to said handle bar; said carrier in operation having said handle bar gripped to lift said prop means off the ground in order to roll the wheels of said carrier to haul logs; at least one band member traversing the outside of said panel and secured thereto to strengthen said panel and prevent the sides of same from buckling; said panel and said axis each include a structure defining a plurality of apertures for receiving a fastening means to secure the panel to the axis.
