I use my wheelbarrow for mixing concrete.

Makes sense. I'll try that this morning.


Considering the multiple uses of a wheelbarrow and infrequent need for
something to mix cement, it should do you.


Though I will say-- for the price- a tub has advantages.
You can mix in it while the wheelbarrow is hauling 'stuff'.
The flat bottom is a plus when trying to get things mixed.
Easy to pick up and dump onto a site.

If your wheelbarrow is metal, the plastic tubs are a lot easier to
clean. [Just leave them at the end of the day- and beat them in the
morning to shake all the dried mortar off]

My mortar tub is also my soil mixing and potting tub-- and a
mini-barrow when I'm doing pavers.
