Commercial-grade appliances can be heavy and hard to move. For example, just one restaurant oven or range typically requires multiple people for a team lift. But what if your delivery drivers didn’t need a team lift to deliver professional kitchen appliances? What if they could supply restaurants with low boy fridges, freezers, and other appliances quickly and easily? It’s possible with the right material handling tools, such as a heavy duty hand truck or a powered stair climbing hand truck. Here are five tools your team needs if you operate a commercial appliance business.
A Magliner Hand Truck can be highly versatile and can move smaller boxes, such as those holding blenders or sous vide machines. These boxes are easy to stack on a hand cart and deliver to a restaurant. Instead of only moving a single box at a time with multiple trips back and forth to the delivery truck, your driver can move multiple boxes per trip with a hand truck, improving their overall efficiency.
The Magliner Appliance Hand Truck will likely be a workhorse for your professional kitchen appliance business. Whether your delivery drivers need to move a brand-new range or top-of-the-line refrigerator, it’s much easier with an appliance hand cart. Instead of a team lift, the heavy duty hand cart enables a single delivery driver to move much more weight than they could otherwise. Look for optional accessories, including side wings and ratchet straps, to help keep these bulky, heavy items in place.
If your team regularly moves oddly shaped appliances or other supplies, you need a piece of equipment that can handle a variety of items. The Magliner Convertible Hand Truck starts upright as a classic hand truck. It can quickly transform into a horizontal platform truck, giving your delivery driver the versatility they need to get the job done. Additionally, this hand cart can support up to 453kgs in four-wheel mode. Longer items or multiple boxes can be stacked, making it much easier to make fewer trips. When done, it converts back to an upright hand truck to save space.
Kitchens on the second floor with no elevator can be challenging for deliveries. A Magliner Powered Stair Climbing Hand Truck can load heavy appliance/s as well as stay in an ergonomic position while the motorised stair climbing action does the work for your driver. You can also find heavy duty options to help move large appliances up and down stairs.
Whether it’s a keg or other smaller appliance, a Magliner Powered Lift Hand Truck can first act as a classic hand truck. Then, a electric screw drive action is used to lift the item up. This makes it easier to move it onto a counter or shelf. This can be extremely useful in preventing back injuries and making it easier to deliver smaller appliances. It’s an excellent addition to any delivery truck, especially when smaller appliances are deceptively heavy, since the best lifting trucks can lift loads up to 159kgs
