A forward dumping, two-wheeled barrow possessing the means to prevent inadvertent rearward dumping and/or injury to the operator is herein disclosed. The primary subassemblies of the forward dumping, two-wheeled barrow include a frame assembly, a wheel assembly, and the cargo receptacle. The frame assembly preferably includes an adjustable length handle assembly and a safety/spill prevention bracket located somewhere between the wheels and the end of the handle assembly. This novel feature prevents potential injury to the operator or nearby individuals (e.g. to the feet) and avoids the problem of emptying all or some of the receptacle's contents in an unintended location. In addition, the safety bracket provides a stable rearward loading position with minimal risk of tipping and/or rolling. The ergonomically designed barrow is fabricated of a variety of strong, lightweight materials (e.g. aluminum, reinforced plastics) to provide a high-strength-to-weight ratio.
