Utility Carts

Utility Carts FAQ

• Are plastic utility carts better than metal for janitorial use?

  Often yes for wet environments because plastic resists corrosion and wipes down easily. Metal can be a better fit for heavier loads or harsher impacts, depending on the model and finish.

• Do you offer bulk pricing for utility carts?

  Yes. Bulk orders help standardize equipment across departments and can reduce per-unit cost. Contact support with quantities and delivery details for the best order setup.

• How do I know if a utility cart will fit through doors and elevators?

  Measure the narrowest doorway and elevator opening on the route, then compare to the cart's overall width and length including handles. Also confirm turning clearance in tight corridors and storage rooms.

• What caster features matter most for facility carts?

  Wheel diameter, non-marking tread, and locking brakes are key. Larger wheels handle thresholds better, non-marking helps protect floors, and brakes reduce roll-away on ramps or sloped areas.

• What weight capacity should I choose for a commercial utility cart?

  Choose based on your heaviest typical load plus a safety margin. Check both total capacity and per-shelf rating, and avoid concentrating weight on the top shelf to reduce tip risk.
