A one car garage is not a lot of space, so you should certainly do a
layout and figure out what you actually have room for. If you buy a
tool in anticipation of doing work, and have to frequently move it to
do the work you actually do, you'll learn to hate that tool and you'll
end up selling it for a loss.

I missed the one-car size the first time. These are very good points. Make
sure that anything and everything you get is on good casters, preferably
locking. I have been using these for several years, and have 5 tools/carts
rolling on them. They are excellent, and even on sale until late in the
month.
I've found that 4 swivel casters work better for me than two fixed and two
swivel in most cases.

Did you know that shopping carts in European supermarkets (and Borg
equivalents) have four swivel casters? I couldn't count how many
times have I've ohad to lift the fookin' back of the cart to move it
out of the way of someone going by. The four swivels allow you to
just push it in any direction. We certainly lag behind in some areas.

While 4 swivel wheels is ok for moving out of the way when parked I
absolutely hate the 4 swivel carts then actually trying to go some where
with one. They tend to go where they want to go rather than where you want
them to go.
