Hi, I'm Donnie.

The idea for e-KRT came to me on a brutally hot 105-degree beach day, years before I had kids. I'd packed everything into a cheap pool cart, but by the end of the day I was exhausted—hauling bags and chairs that wouldn't fit, dragging a cart that barely moved through soft sand, and making multiple trips just to get everything back to the car. Instead of relaxing, I was completely worn out.

I'm an engineer with more than 16 years of experience designing products for manufacturing, and solving problems is simply how my mind works. Standing on that beach, I knew there had to be a better way—not just for me, but for every family struggling with the same experience.

That's how e-KRT was born.

Today, e-KRT is the foldable electric beach cart I wish I'd had that day. It carries your gear across soft sand, folds to fit into your SUV, and helps make beach days easier from start to finish.

Now, as the father of a 3-year-old and a 1-year-old, I know exactly who I built it for: families who simply want to spend more time enjoying the beach and less time carrying everything to it.

I didn't build e-KRT because I wanted to start a company. I built it because I wanted a better beach day for my family—and yours.

Why We Built e-KRT

Dragging heavy beach gear across soft sand shouldn't require multiple trips or extra help. e-KRT was created to solve that everyday problem with practical engineering, thoughtful organization, and a foldable design that fits everyday vehicles. Every decision—from the integrated gear mounts to the removable battery—was made to simplify the beach experience.

Every e-KRT is built with UV-resistant PVC tubing and stainless steel fasteners and hardware to withstand demanding beach environments.

Designed to solve a real problem—not create another one.

What Makes e-KRT Different

Most electric beach carts are built to haul a large load across packed sand. e-KRT was engineered differently—designed to fold, fit into everyday vehicles, and include the features families actually use.

Folds to approximately 30 × 24 × 28.5 inches, making it easy to store and load into SUVs, crossovers, hatchbacks, minivans, and trucks.

Everything Included

Chair mounts, cooler platform, umbrella holders, and side hang-points come standard—no extra accessories required.

Choose Your Style

Available in up to 11 standard finishes, including clear, at no additional cost.

Removable Lithium Battery

36V 31.5Ah removable lithium-ion battery with dual 350W motors, designed for convenient charging and transport.
