Sack trucks are two-wheeled trolleys with a toe plate at the bottom on which various items are placed and lifted for easy transport. A person can move items safely around the warehouse or during delivery using a sack truck. The trucks also allow individuals to move heavier items than they typically would if they were alone and without any unnecessary injury risk.

Benefits of Using a Sack Truck

sack trucks can be a valuable addition to any business or industry. Some of the reasons why investing in a sack truck for your company include the following:

Affordable

Sack trucks are a simple yet effective solution that is easy and affordable to produce. They have a versatile design with many variations available for various tasks. They are an excellent solution for moving loads in your warehouse without spending a small fortune.

Cost-effective

Sack trucks are easy to buy and maintain. They don’t require a lot of funds to maintain. In fact, they are usually maintenance-free.

They also save you the costs associated with injuries to employees arising from manual handling of heavy loads. The sack truck can also save you other costs, such as lost work hours, and allow one individual to be more useful, move heavier weights around the warehouse, and better manage resources without putting the employees at risk, especially when handling large and bulky items.

Adding a sack truck to your operations can also increase your revenue by increasing efficiency and shortening delivery times.

Safety

Sack trucks can drastically improve workplace safety. They reduce injuries related to manual handling, allowing employees to work longer without overexerting themselves and injuring themselves. By investing in the right equipment, like sack trucks, and providing adequate training, you can improve safety and reduce medical and healthcare costs associated with workplace injuries.

Efficiency

Efficiency is a major driver of success in any industry and can be measured in various ways. Labour effectiveness is one way to measure efficiency. This is the amount of work that can be done by two or three people and how quickly they can finish the task. Because of the ease of lifting with a sack track and its mobility, you get a major boost in efficiency.

Space Saving

In operations where space is a premium, adding a sack truck makes perfect sense because they don’t take up much space. They also help move items out of the way faster, keeping the floor space organized and as spacious as possible.

You can choose from different types of sack trucks, particularly those designed to save space, like the telescopic folding sack trucks, which fold flat and can be stored anywhere easily. We also have sack trucks that can be supplied with folding toe plates for slime line storage in warehouses with tight spacing.

Types of Sack Trucks

There are several types of sack trucks available. What you choose depends on the nature of the terrain the truck will be working in and the items you want to carry.

Standard sack trucks

These are made from steel. They have a long-lasting, durable, hand-built frame with excellent attention to detail. They are ideal for industries looking for something simple but sturdy for heavy lifting.

Standard sack trucks come in a wide range of load capabilities. You can choose the right size and weight capacity for your applications.

Heavy-duty sack trucks

Most sack trucks supplied by Onit Direct can be considered heavy-duty. However, heavy-duty options are categorised by their high weight limit of up to 400 kg in load rating. These options also have hard-wearing components that can keep up with the demands of busy industrial environments.

Multipurpose sack trucks

We also have a range of multipurpose sack trucks. They are a cost-effective solution for small and medium businesses or if you’re on a budget. This type of sack truck has the same use as a traditional sack truck but with the safe transport of a trolley with more wheels for added safety. This range can do the job of three standard manual handling solutions in just one sack truck.

Folding sack trucks

Folding sack trucks make the most sense for warehouses and industries with limited space or who want to preserve as much space as possible by tucking away their equipment when it is not in use. The folding sack can come in various configurations, including options with just a folding toe plate or the entire structure folding into small, compact, space-saving equipment. They can be extremely useful in helping you move things around without having a large footprint in terms of space.
