Which holds more weight, the Yardmax or the HPDMC?

The Yardmax, by a wide margin. It is rated for 2,300 lb; the HPDMC lists a 150 lb max load. If you store heavy power tools or parts, the Yardmax is the safer choice.

Is the HPDMC worth $600 more?

Only if you value the built-in workbench and power. The HPDMC adds an 18-inch wood top, a pegboard and a 4-outlet, 2-USB power strip. The Yardmax gives you more rated capacity for less money.

Which is better for a garage workshop?

The HPDMC suits a workshop where you work at the cart, thanks to its wood top, pegboard and outlets. The Yardmax suits bulk tool storage, with 15 drawers and a much higher load rating.

Do both have soft-close drawers?

Yes. Both use ball-bearing slides with a soft-close system. The Yardmax adds a locking retention mechanism so drawers stay closed while the unit moves.

Neither maker publishes a written warranty, so judge by build. The Yardmax uses all-welded 20-gauge steel; the HPDMC uses thickened cold-rolled steel with a welded frame and lists stainless steel as the material.

Can I move either one around a garage?

Yes. The Yardmax rolls on two locking swivel casters and two static casters. The HPDMC has four 5-inch casters, two of them lockable, on a 425 lb body.
