A nesting tilt-truck includes a metal frame and a container body. A pair of large wheels are rotatably mounted on a common axle that is in turn mounted on the metal frame near the junction of the container body front wall and base. A second caster wheel or wheels, which house a self-contained axle that allows the wheel(s) to rotate, is mounted on the metal frame near the junction of the container body rear wall and base. The caster wheel(s) are configured to pivot about a vertical axis in order to easily steer the tilt-truck during use of the tilt-truck. The container body is formed with a kick-out wall that inclines rearwardly to form a pocket for seating the wheels of a second tilt-truck when one tilt-truck is nested inside a second tilt-truck.
