Choose a rating comfortably above the heaviest load you move. Sack and Hand Trucks starts with folding aluminium trucks at 70kg and 90kg, which fold away for a van, then sack trucks at 150kg, 200kg and 250kg, up to heavy-duty models at 300kg. Stair climbing sack trucks are listed too, including a 150kg model.
Pneumatic tyres cushion the load and roll more easily over rough or uneven ground, but they can puncture and need their pressure checked. Solid and puncture-proof PU tyres need no inflation and suit workshops and sites with sharp debris. Sack trucks here are listed with each type, for example 150kg models on pneumatic or solid tyres.
It is a wheeled lift table: a hydraulic pump raises the platform so a load can be brought level with a bench, vehicle or racking. Capacities listed are 150kg, 300kg, 500kg and 1000kg, with high lift versions. EV battery lift versions are rated at 700kg, 1000kg and 1200kg, one lifting to 1500mm.
A sack truck tips back on two wheels and suits single tall items, sacks and stacked boxes. A platform truck carries the load flat on four wheels, which is steadier for bulky or mixed loads. Platform Trollies includes 150kg to 350kg trucks, some with folding handles or removable sides, in sizes such as 900 x 600mm and 1200 x 800mm.
They fix a hoist to an I-beam or RSJ. A beam clamp gives a fixed lifting point and is listed at 1, 2 and 3 tonne. A beam trolley runs along the beam so the load can be moved sideways: plain trolleys are pushed, and geared trolleys are moved by a hand chain. Trolleys are listed from 0.5 to 3 tonne.
Standard pallet trucks here are rated at 2000kg, 2200kg and 2.5 tonne, with one 2000kg model including weighing scales. High lift pallet trucks, at 1000kg and 1.5 tonne, raise the pallet to working height but carry less. Check fork size, such as 1150 x 525mm, against the pallets you handle.
