Abstract
A folding utility cart accessory device includes a frame having a pair of vertical supports and an upper horizontal member extending between an upper end of each vertical support. A pair of support arms are attached to the frame. A first pair of fasteners are attached to a lower horizontal member that extends between each vertical support. A second pair of fasteners are attached to a lower end of each vertical support. The first pair of fasteners are configured to removably secure to an upper horizontal member of a folding utility cart frame. The second pair of fasteners are configured to removably secure to a vertical member of a folding utility cart frame. In this way, the frame can be removably secured to either the front end or rear end of a folding utility cart to provide additional storage options.
