Trolleys

The best trolley depends on what you need to move. For everyday office use, a multi-shelf utility trolley is ideal for transporting files, stationery, IT equipment and supplies between departments. For meeting and training spaces, dedicated chair or table trolleys make it easier to move and store furniture while reducing manual handling.

Capacity varies depending on the trolley and chair design. For example, the OFD Sled Base Chair Trolley can accommodate up to 25 compatible sled-base chairs. Always check that your chair model is compatible with the trolley before loading, as different frame styles require different trolley designs.

In many cases, yes. Choosing a trolley designed for your particular folding table helps ensure the tables sit securely during transport and storage. For example, the Sylex Lachlan Table Trolley is specifically designed for Lachlan Folding Tables and is available in versions carrying up to 18 or 36 tables. Other commercial trestle trolleys are available for more general folding-table applications.

The right trolley depends on the environment. Hotels may require housekeeping or luggage trolleys, schools often benefit from chair, table and utility trolleys, offices commonly use utility trolleys for documents and equipment, while event venues typically need high-capacity chair, banquet or folding-table trolleys. Matching the trolley to the items being transported improves efficiency, storage and handling safety.

This depends on the wheel material and the flooring surface. Many commercial trolleys are designed with smooth-running wheels suited to common surfaces such as carpet, tiles and hard flooring. For example, OFD's Compact 3-Shelf Utility Cart uses PVC wheels, while the Hard Front Housekeeping Trolley uses soft-ride castors suitable for carpet and tiles. If protecting delicate flooring is important, check the specific trolley's castor material and floor suitability before purchasing.
