How is a stock trolley different to other types of trolley?

The stock trolley is a lightweight goods solution that is ideal for use in retail outlets, supermarkets, warehouses and more. It is distinguished by its slimline design that makes it a perfect choice for narrow aisles and stocking in confined spaces where customers might also be shopping.


Stock trolleys are easy to use, manoeuvrable and versatile. They can be collapsed quickly and easily, and nested to save space when not in use. This makes them a very economical solution for stocking and storage where space is at a premium.

 

So, what makes a stock trolley different from other trolleys?

 

One of the key differences is that it is lightweight and easier to move than a regular trolley. Made from lightweight but strong materials, stock trolleys can carry large weights but are still easy to move around warehouses and retail spaces. Their compact design also sets them apart from other types of trolley. This means they can be easily positioned in narrow aisles and other small spaces to allow staff to carry on stocking without getting in the way of customers.

 

Another key part of their design is that they are collapsible, so when not in use they can be folded down to save space. And because they nest together, you can store multiple stock trolleys in even small storage spaces. That means that stock trolleys are ideal for occasional use or as goods transports that are not needed on a full-time basis.

Other types of trolley

 

In order to see why stock trolleys differ, it’s worth taking a closer look at some of the other types of trolley available.

 

Platform trolleys are designed with a hand rail for pushing and a large flat area either on one or two levels for moving goods around. They are heavy duty and designed for large loads but are perhaps not so good for smaller areas or confined spaces.

 

Powered trolleys are used to move extremely heavy goods that can’t be easily pushed by staff. As such, they are heavy and cumbersome but great for moving specialist loads.

 

Office trolleys are small and lightweight but designed for carrying equally small and lightweight items and not for long-term storage.

 

Bin trolleys are used to collect waste such as cardboard and plastics when stocking. They are flexible and mobile and can be collapsed to save space. However, they are not designed to move heavy loads and while they are often made of strong and durable material, they probably won’t be made of tough metal.

 

If you work in a retail environment or stock space and need a versatile stocking option, then our range of stock trolleys might be the solution you are looking for. There are lots of other kinds of trolley out there for specific tasks, such as powered and bin trolleys, but in terms of an all-purpose trolley usable for a range of stocking options, you can’t really go wrong with a stock trolley, and they’re a great investment for the future too.
