 Were there any mentions of carts, wagons or anything similar during the book? They dont have horses, so who woul move the goods.

We know only big ships can travel and dock at morning, landing and base. That is the equivalent of a port or a flight bay. What if there are something aking to air hatches? Small access way on each habble. We know that air ships can travel between spires, but there are mentions of other inter habble travels. Those need an avenue of access apart from a port.

Air transport is cheaper and faster than taking stuff up the stairs. Every habble charges a toll to use their staircases.

Folly carries the collection in two connested wagons

They wagons but do they have draft animals.

Not in the spire, no. Folly "[dragged] a pair of small children's wagons in a little train."  Horses had all but passed out of memory, and almost entirely into myth, but are at least believed to no longer exist.

Their magic tech show examples of electric and magnetic application, what if they created some thing akin to a maglev on the ground?

Those would just be lift crystals with a small power crystal, and those are all made large and exclusively for ships. Using crystals like that would be like someone buying a private jet and using it to drive their kids to school
