Businesses That Can Benefit from Material Handling Equipment

Posted by Magliner on February 5th, 2021

Material handling equipment can help employees move commerce, boxes, furniture, and all sorts of other items, such as kegs, more quickly and efficiently. From classic hand trucks to powered stair climbing hand trucks, a variety of different businesses can benefit from material handling equipment. Here are some businesses that can use material handling equipment, and the tools that help get jobs done efficiently.

Book Shops

Boxes of books are heavy and can hurt employees’ backs as they try to move them.

Instead of moving a single, heavy box of books at a time, hand trucks can make the job much easier. Boxes filled with books can be stacked on the hand trucks, moved quickly and efficiently compared to just a single package. The job can be done in a fraction of the time, freeing employees up to do other jobs.

Furniture Stores

One of the best pieces of material handling equipment a furniture store can have is a heavy duty hand truck. With a high weight capacity, optional side wings and a ratchet strap, it is ideal for moving larger items like furniture. Whether it’s a large chair or dresser, a heavy duty hand truck takes away the need for team lifting. A fourth-wheel attachment can help with moving the furniture by making it easier to break the hand truck back and keep it in the right position.

Uniform Laundry Services

How do employees of uniform laundry services move all the uniforms after they have been cleaned and folded? Convertible hand trucks can be an answer. They can be transported in a truck in the vertical position, acting as a classic hand truck. Once at the delivery spot, it can be transformed into a horizontal platform. The cleaned, folded uniforms can be placed on the convertible hand truck for easy transport.

Armored Cars

Money can be surprisingly heavy, especially when moved as coins. Armored cars need to quickly and efficiently move money for safety reasons, making the use of a hand cart an easy solution. The hand cart can hold more weight, move more bags of currency, and enable the driver to move quickly. This gets the job done faster, which is a boon when dealing with moving money.

Breweries

Kegs can be heavy and hard to move. With a power lifting hand truck, the hand truck does most of the work, lifting the keg up so employees won’t have to bend down to lift the keg. It also acts as a hand truck, making the keg easy to move. A powered stair climbing hand truck can also be a fantastic asset, helping move kegs up or down stairs to breweries or restaurants or down a flight of stairs to a storage area. This makes the job less of a hassle for the employee, helping save their energy.
