What is claimed is: 1. A cart comprising: a primary section including: a body portion having a first end with a first set of connectors and a second end with a second set of connectors, wherein the body portion is supported by a first plurality of rolling members; a handle mechanism including a gripping portion, the handle mechanism being releasably connectable to either one of the first set of connectors and the second set of connectors of the body portion such that the gripping portion can be disposed adjacent to either of the first end and the second end of the body portion; and a handle holder having a plurality of slots each configured to retain a handle, the handle holder comprising a front edge in which the slots are located and a rear edge which abuts against the body portion, the handle holder being configured to only hold the handles along the front edge, the handle holder being releasably connectable to either one of the first set of connectors and the second set of connectors of the body portion such that the handle holder can be disposed adjacent to either of the first end and the second end of the body portion; a secondary section including a mop bucket supporting region and a second plurality of rolling members that fully support the mop bucket supporting region; and a connection mechanism for releasably connecting the secondary section to the second end of the body portion. 2. The cart of claim 1, wherein the handle mechanism includes an opening for holding a trash receptacle that is adjacent to the gripping portion. 3. The cart of claim 1, wherein the mop bucket supporting region includes an integrally formed mop bucket. 4. The cart of claim 1, wherein the mop bucket supporting region is configured to receive a separable mop bucket. 5. The cart of claim 1, wherein the secondary section includes at least four rolling members. 6. The cart of claim 1, wherein the primary section includes a platform at a bottom of the first end of the body portion. 7. The cart of claim 1, wherein the primary section includes a folding shelf attached to the second end of the body portion and configured to fold relative to the body portion between a use position in which the folding shelf can receive an object and a storage position. 8. The cart of claim 7, further comprising a shelf-connection mechanism that pivotably connects the folding shelf to the second end of the body portion. 9. The cart of claim 1, wherein the body portion includes a plurality of storage shelves. 10. The cart of claim 1, wherein each of the first set of connectors and the second set of connectors of the body portion comprises a set of attachment protrusions and a set of internal frame protrusions. 11. The cart of claim 10, wherein the handle mechanism comprises a set of attachment slots that mates with the attachment protrusions of the first and second sets of connectors of the body portion and a set of external handle protrusions. 12. The cart of claim 11, wherein the internal frame protrusions of the first and second sets of connectors of the body portion are configured to be enveloped by the set of external handle protrusions of the handle mechanism. 13. The cart of claim 1, wherein the handle mechanism comprises a set of attachment slots and a set of external handle protrusions that mate with the first and second sets of connectors of the body portion. 14. The cart of claim 1, wherein the handle holder comprises a continuous surface running from the front edge to the rear edge such that the continuous surface spans across an entire length of the front edge. 15. The cart of claim 1, wherein the gripping portion comprises a bar structure with an opening between the bar structure and the body portion when the handle mechanism is attached to the body portion such that the gripping portion can be grabbed about the bar structure. 16. The cart of claim 15, wherein the handle holder comprises a continuous surface between the front edge and the body portion in which an opening is not formed in the continuous surface. 17. A method of using a cart comprising the steps of: using a primary section of the cart including: a body portion having a first end with a first set of connectors and a second end with a second set of connectors, wherein the body portion is supported by a first plurality of rolling members; a handle mechanism including a gripping portion, the handle mechanism being releasably connectable to either one of the first set of connectors and the second set of connectors of the body portion such that the gripping portion can be disposed adjacent to either of the first end and the second end of the body portion; and a handle holder having a plurality of slots each configured to retain a handle, the handle holder comprising a front edge in which the slots are located and a rear edge which abuts against the body portion, the handle holder being configured to only hold the handles along the front edge, the handle holder being releasably connectable to either one of the first set of connectors and the second set of connectors of the body portion such that the handle holder can be disposed adjacent to either of the first end and the second end of the body portion; using a secondary section of the cart including a mop bucket supporting region and a second plurality of rolling members that fully support the mop bucket supporting region; connecting the secondary section to the second end of the body portion; connecting the handle mechanism to the first set of connectors of the body portion such that the gripping portion is adjacent the first end of the body portion; connecting the handle holder to the second set of connectors of the body portion such that the handle holder is adjacent the second end of the body portion; removing the secondary section from the second end of the body portion; and connecting the handle mechanism to the second set of connectors of the body portion such that the gripping portion is adjacent the second end of the body portion. 18. The method of claim 17, further comprising providing a plurality of storage shelves on the body portion. 19. The method of claim 17, further comprising providing each of the first set of connectors and the second set of connectors of the body portion with a set of attachment protrusions and a set of internal frame protrusions. 20. The method of claim 19, further comprising providing the handle mechanism with a set of attachment slots that mates with the attachment protrusions of the first and second sets of connectors of the body portion and a set of external handle protrusions. 21. The method of claim 17, further comprising providing the handle mechanism with a set of attachment slots and a set of external handle protrusions that mate with the first and second sets of connectors of the body portion. 22.
