A forward-thinking warehousing or retail business always jumps at the opportunity to get more value for less time, and that's precisely why you can't go wrong with high quality warehouse trolleys. These essential pieces of warehouse equipment have stood the test of time, and here are five of their greatest time-tested benefits:
1) Complete Protection of Goods
Platform trolleys, shelf trolleys, balance trolleys, wagon trolleys, and container trolleys all have something in common: They have at least one horizontal surface on top of a 4-wheel chassis, upon which they carry their load from loading bay to storage and vice-versa. The load remains motionless throughout, without tilting, sliding, or jiggling. When it comes to protecting your goods in transit, it doesn't get any better than a warehouse trolley.
2) Simplicity is Key
Bearing in mind that it can carry considerable loads with minimal human involvement, the design of the warehouse trolley is surprisingly simple. Whether it's open, caged, pulled by a wagon handle, or extended with shelves, the platform carries sizable loads across large distances effortlessly, and it does away with the need for heavy manual lifting.
3) Easy to Find and Source
At Steps and Stillages, we carry a wide range of warehouse trolleys, from the humble flatbed model to the versatile order picking trolley and the impressive mobile hydraulic scissor lift trolley, making it easy to select and purchase the equipment you need.
4) Space Saving
As it can carry bulky items like boxes and crates together, stacked up for the sake of efficiency and often secured into place with mesh, grills, or bars, a warehouse trolley also helps save space on the route from the loading bay to the shelf. This frees up workspace for other activities and streamlines the loading process.
5) Durability and Toughness.
Most warehouse trolleys can easily carry upwards of 250kg. Some come with pneumatic wheels and can withstand loads of 800kg or more, but whatever the style, a warehouse trolley is bound to last for years with minimal maintenance. Most leading models are made of durable carbon steel and hardly ever need repairs.
