I got a nice husky set at Home Depot, the one with the clear drawer faces. It was 225 for the top and bottom boxes, heavy duty casters and real sturdy.

I bought the "STANLEY® METAL-PLASTIC ROLLING WORKSHOP (http://www.stanleyworks.se/products/detail/Tool+Storage/Metal+Plastic+Storage+Line/Stanley%C2%AE+Metal-Plastic+Rolling+Workshop)" here in Sweden.. No idea where you can get it in the states.
Its good if you're travelling by train/plane, but stuffing this one into the trunk of a car is no fun at all. It swallows everything you need. And it's very sturdy so what Im gonna do is mod it a bit.. maybe put a tube on the side for the rolled up backdrop and a pad to put on the handle bar so you use it as a arm rest. or something like that.

Thanks for the help Vinoshitto, Im going to check out this box. I found a guy on instagram that makes a traveling armrest that can be taken apart and put together very easily. Check him out on Instagram @Guzan_stand_fabrication

I used the one from Walmart for some time. It's like $20 - $30 and worked fine. Not perfect and it's like all plastic but for the price it worked out fabulously. My only complaint is I'm tall (6'1'') and I have to backward hunch to roll it.
