Coolers & Carts

Is there anything better than relaxing outside on a nice day and enjoying the fresh air? You don't need to run back and forth between your kitchen and patio for supplies when you have an outdoor cooler cart. These carts have an interior that keeps foods and drinks cold for hours, and some have wheels that make them easy to transport. There are even cooler carts that have extra room for packaged snacks and anything else you need to carry. Shop for the best patio and cooler carts from our wide selection at Bed Bath & Beyond.

Before you start looking at coolers from Igloo® and other brands we carry, look at all the different types. A cooler bag is great for trips to the grocery store because it's lightweight and easy to carry. These bags stay cool but don't have much space inside. Beverage totes can hold dozens of drinks and stay cool when you add ice, but they're not as portable as you'll find the coolers to be. A standard cooler has handles and a lid that locks in the cold. You might also appreciate a pop-up cooler like the ones from H for Happy™ because you can easily store one during the off-season.

One of the best ways to pick the right patio cooler cart is to a look at its capacity. Do you need one for outdoor use that matches your patio furniture? A cooler cart with a capacity of 25 liters or more might be a good choice. You'll have enough space for drinks and snacks whether you need to feed your family or a crowd. One with a capacity of 11 liters is suitable for the days you spend at the beach. You can even find one in a bright color that matches your other outdoor supplies.

A rolling cooler cart combines the benefits of a patio cart with those of a cooler. You might choose one with a single shelf or one with multiple shelves that give you more storage space. Margaritaville® makes some fun options from galvanized metal that won't rust no matter how long you leave it outside. These carts usually have a capacity of 70 liters or more, and they have durable wheels. These wheels help you move the cart all over your patio or deck, and you can lock them in place to prevent accidents.

Consider a cooler cart that has a spout on the side. This spout opens to let you drain the cooler quickly and get rid of melted ice and water inside. On the other hand, you might prefer a patio cooler cart that works with a cooler you already own. Then, you can use the cooler with or without the cart. Some of the other features to look for on an outdoor cooler cart include a built-in bottle opener and storage space for picnic baskets or grilling tools. Finding the right cooler cart for your home is easy when you shop at Bed Bath & Beyond.
