Valheim Cart is used for extra storage and to help transport materials with high weight. Going on a distant logging or mining trip, but cringe when you think about added weight and a small inventory?

Take a cart with you and be a master of both ore and wood! Mighty bag is here in the form of a humble cart. 🙂
