Due anyone have a rough idea of how big the stein arb trolley sack is? 60lts?? 

I welded up some little hooks that slide over the Stein uprights and I hook a builders bag on which is 1000 litres.  from the look of the Stein bag in the photo I would suggest it is more like 750 litres, maybe 500 litres but certainly more than 60 litres which is the same size as our garden sprayer!

Dilz, i use a TCF arb trolley and i bought a smaller than usual dumpy bag from Tool Station which has a safe working load of 500KG but fits on perfectly.  Not sure of the actual dimensions of the bag itself but it's spot on and i too am having hooks fabbed up so as to make attaching and detaching the bag a doddle. we use it on long conifer hedge trimming jobs where we trim onto a line of 8x4 tarps and then pick each one up and tip them into the dumpy bag on the arb trolley,  once full we drag it to the truck or chipper.

I was about 100% out as usual ! just measured the smaller white bag at 55x55x80=240 litres and the big blue bag which I have built extensions for at 80x80x80=512 litres

I put a pin in the extensions so that if the bag is heavy I can pull the pins making it easy to take the loops off, then pull out the posts on one side and pull the bag over to tip it

I made a detachable ball hitch for towing behind the car or the Stiga mower for garden work.  It is quite hard to pull by hand with a full load!

going to give thrse 270ltr bags a try. The sack barrow also means its going to be fairly  easy to off load full bags up ramps and onto the trailer. Reckon they won't be full to the brim but guess around 80-90kg a sack with what the little chipper produces
