An apparatus for transporting articles between working locations is provided. The apparatus includes wheels mounted towards the bottom of the apparatus for rotation about an axis to provide rolling support for the apparatus and a manually engageable pulling handle. The pulling handle and the ground engaging wheels are arranged to enable a user to manually pull the pulling handle generally rearwardly so as to tilt the apparatus rearwardly to a tilted rolling movement position, thereby enabling the user to roll the apparatus to a desired location by pushing or pulling the pulling handle in a desired direction. The apparatus also includes a frame and at least one or more mount structures adjustably connected to the frame. The apparatus further includes a plurality of containers connected to the mount structures, where at least one of the containers are of a different configuration from another one of the containers.

The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the releasable connections comprise at least one releasable latch on each of the containers, that engages the one or more protrusion to latch the containers to the mount structures. 6. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein at least one the releasable latch is provided with a spring to bias the releasable latch in a closed position, wherein when the at least one releasable latch is engaged with an associated protrusion, abutment between the stop surface and at least a portion of the associated releasable latch prevents removal of the associated container from the mount structure. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the spring is constructed and arranged to enable the at least one releasable latch to rotate against the bias of the spring to an open position through an action of a user. 8. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the releasable connection for each container comprises a pair of spring biased side handles on opposite sides of the container, wherein the side handles are constructed and arranged to engage one or more of the mount structures. 9. An apparatus for transporting articles between working locations, comprising: one or more rotatable ground engaging wheels mounted towards the bottom of the apparatus for rotation about an axis to provide rolling support for the apparatus;a manually engageable pulling handle, the pulling handle and the one or more ground engaging wheels being arranged to enable a user to manually pull the pulling handle generally rearwardly so as to tilt the apparatus rearwardly to a tilted rolling movement position, thereby enabling the user to roll the apparatus to a desired location by pushing or pulling the pulling handle in a desired direction;a frame;one or more mount structures adjustably connected to the frame so as to adjust a height thereof on the frame; anda plurality of containers releasably connected to the one or more mount structures that are adjustably connected to the frame, thus enabling a height of the containers to be adjusted on the frame,wherein each of the containers has a handle for transporting the container after it has been released from the mount structure,wherein the one or more mount structures comprise a connection structure that includes at least one stop surface, andwherein each of the containers has at least one spring biased latch constructed and arranged to releasably engage with the stop surface. 10.
