Golf Trolleys

The best golf trolley depends on how you like to play. If you prefer ease and convenience, an electric golf trolley such as a Powakaddy or Motocaddy is ideal, offering motorised performance with reliable lithium batteries. For those who prefer simplicity and lighter weight, a push golf trolley like the Powakaddy Micra or Motocaddy QB2 is a great option. 

An electric golf trolley utilises a rechargeable battery to power the trolley, enabling effortless movement across the course, particularly on hilly layouts or during longer rounds. A push trolley is manually operated, lightweight, and folds easily for transport. Both options are available from leading brands such as Powakaddy, Motocaddy, Clicgear, and iCart, all backed by manufacturer warranties and fast delivery from The Golf Shop Online.

Modern Powakaddy electric golf trolleys feature lithium batteries that typically last between 18 and 36 holes, depending on the model you choose. With proper charging and care, these batteries can last up to five years. We offer Powakaddy trolleys with both 18-hole and 36-hole battery options, all covered by full warranties and our 60-day returns policy.

To keep your electric golf trolley performing well, clean it after each round, avoid storing it when wet, and regularly check the battery connections. Use only the recommended charger and avoid over-charging. We stock a wide range of electric golf trolleys and spare parts, and our PGA-trained team is available to offer expert advice if you need assistance.

Choosing the right Powakaddy golf trolley depends on how often you play and the features you prefer. The Powakaddy FX3 offers excellent value and simplicity, while the FX5 and FX7 include upgraded digital displays, speed controls, and optional GPS features. For the most advanced performance, the CT8 GPS is compact, fully connected, and folds down easily for storage. You can compare the latest Powakaddy golf trolleys to find the model that best suits your game.

An electric trolley takes care of propelling your bag, which can be particularly welcome on a hilly course. A push trolley is usually more affordable and does not need charging. We would weigh up your course, budget and storage space, then consider how much effort you want to spend moving your equipment.

Start with folded size, lifting weight, battery capacity and ease of use. Then decide whether features such as downhill control, GPS or remote operation would be useful on your course. Our preference is to get those everyday essentials right before paying extra for features you may rarely use.

Compare the trolley's folded length, width and height with your boot, including the opening. Check whether the quoted dimensions require the wheels to be removed or inverted. We suggest allowing space for your golf bag and shoes too, rather than choosing a trolley that only just fits on its own.

A 36-hole battery is designed to provide more playing capacity between charges than an 18-hole option. Actual range depends on the model, terrain, load, conditions and battery condition. We would choose an extended-capacity battery if you regularly play two rounds, while checking the manufacturer's guidance for the trolley you are buying.

Downhill control helps a trolley maintain a controlled speed on descents instead of gathering pace. We consider it worth looking at if you regularly play a hilly course. Check the exact model, as downhill control and a parking brake are different features and are not always supplied together.

Many cart bags fit a range of trolleys, but the base shape, supports and securing straps all matter. Brand-specific locking systems need compatible parts. Before buying, we recommend checking your bag against the trolley's guidance. If you use a stand bag, make sure the leg mechanism will not prevent it sitting securely.

Check your club's current trolley rules first, as wet conditions may bring restrictions or a requirement for winter wheels. Make sure any wheels you buy fit your exact trolley. We also recommend cleaning off mud after your round and following the manufacturer's care instructions, particularly around electrical components.

Use the charger approved for your battery and follow the manufacturer's charging instructions. Store it somewhere dry, away from extreme temperatures, and check the guidance before putting it away for a long break. Our advice is to follow the instructions for your exact battery rather than assume all lithium batteries need the same storage routine.
