  • Are there specific storage carts designed for heavy items?

    Yes, our storage carts are designed to handle heavy items. Built with robust steel frames and swivel castors to support and manoeuvre heavy loads effectively, our trolleys are capable of holding a range of items. From hospitality equipment to boxed items for warehouses, these heavy-duty storage trolleys contain the necessary load capacity to meet your industry’s mobile storage needs.

  • How can I ensure I am not exceeding the weight limit of my storage cart?

    It’s important to regularly check the weight of the items you’re loading onto your trolley to ensure you're not exceeding its maximum weight capacity. Our main tip is to distribute your loads evenly across the cart to maintain balance and prevent tipping. Our trolley’s dimensions are the same size as half an Australian standard pallet, but to gain personalised advice for your needs, the OzTrolley team can provide you with their expertise on whether our trolleys can hold your items.

  • What are the risks of exceeding the maximum load capacity of a storage trolley?

    Exceeding the maximum load capacity of our storage trolleys can lead to several risks. The wheels may become damaged, reducing the cart’s ability to carry, manoeuvre, and unload items safely. Overloading can result in difficulty transporting and removing stock and can pose several workplace health and safety issues, potentially causing injuries or accidents.

  • Can the weight limit of a storage cart affect its manoeuvrability?

    Yes, the weight limit can significantly impact the trolleys’ manoeuvrability. When the cart is loaded near or beyond its maximum loading capacity, it becomes more difficult to roll, steer and control as the swivel castor wheels are only designed to handle specific weights. Properly managing the weight distribution and adhering to the cart’s weight dimensions can help maintain its manoeuvrability and prolong its lifespan.
