Dollies

Dollies, often called skates or dolly trucks, are wheeled platforms designed to facilitate the easy movement of heavy or bulky objects. They typically consist of a stable, flat base with two or more castor wheels (made of rubber or plastic) for easy transporting items that are difficult or impossible to move manually. A dolly is an essential material handling equipment that reduces physical strain and improves efficiency. Dollies come in various sizes and configurations, including platform dollies, furniture dollies, appliance dollies, and specialty dollies for specific tasks like moving drums or barrels. Additionally, wheeled dollies can have different load capacities, with some models including built-in handles for ease of mobility and convenience. 

Why Buy Dollies?

Investing in dollies can significantly increase efficiency and reduce injury when moving heavy or awkward items. They save time and effort by minimising the physical strain on individuals, preventing back injuries, and speeding up the moving process. Additionally, having a wheeled dolly ensures your items remain safe during transport.

• Metal Dollies – Metal dollies are strong and sturdy carts designed to handle heavier loads and withstand more rigorous use. They are often more durable and long-lasting than plastic dollies.
