Well, this would be too easy.  We need more info:

 - What system would you prefer: paper-roll, books, barrel, electronic?
 - How much weight should the organ not exceed?
 - How big is "not too big"?
 - Where do you live? (Important for shipping costs; some organ-builders
     have sellers in "foreign" countries.)
 - How should the cart look like?

 - To be continued ...
