When you have heavy items to shift in the workplace, there is a good chance that you will have to use pre-bought manual handling equipment to get the job done. And yet, each individual industry and even each individual business will have very unique needs in terms of the type of items that need to be moved and the way in which they can be moved as efficiently as possible.
One easy solution that many businesses over look is to fabricate handling equipment themselves. In the majority of cases it will simply involve purchasing certain sheets of wood or metal and some heavy duty castors, and you are likely to be able to make very effective handling equipment for a fraction of the price of those in the shops, and equipment that is far more suited to your own unique needs.
In fact for many businesses, a single sheet of rectangular wood and some heavy duty castors will offer the perfect solution for moving almost any item, and something that will usually be able to be operated by single workers on their own.
It can be surprisingly hard to find a good quality trolley that suits one’s needs, yet by creating such a simple trolley yourself, all manner of different items can be moved very quickly, very safely and very efficiently. By using a simple wood and industrial castors solution, you will be able to increase productivity and reduce the chance of accidents very easily, and find that you can have any number of trolleys fit for purpose for a very low cost.
Attaching industrial castors to wood or metal will be a very straightforward task, but one that could not only increase safety, but in many cases also reduce the number of people who will have to be utilised when moving items in the workplace.
