Power Cart Tugger

The CartCaddyShorty power tugger is a motorized cart mover manufactured to push carts, pull carts, and maneuver carts or equipment that require turning and that can typically be pushed or pulled with one or two people.

Tugger Applications

This tugger is the smallest, most maneuverable tug available on the market, and still has plenty of power to handle most push or pull applications. The most common application is the cart with two front swivel casters and two straight casters. The CartCaddyShorty tugger attaches to the swivel castered end and provides the pushing and pulling power necessary for easy turning and intricate maneuvering.

These carts can carry a variety of items, such as a bin full of washers, a flat bed of steel, or a cart full of cookie dough. Regardless of the parts or equipment being pulled or pushed, our battery powered tugger has the power to push or pull almost any heavy cart.

Tugger Benefits

The use of the CartCaddyShorty power tugger minimizes the risk of injury, which in turn reduces workers' compensation and insurance claims.

The tugger also increases overall productivity. Heavy carts which previously had required multiple operators to maneuver can now be negotiated by a single employee. As a result, the operators eliminated from these tasks are available for alternate responsibilities.

Companies also receive an indirect benefit of improved employee morale by reducing the drudgery of physical labor for their employees. Improved employee morale decreases employee turnover and improves overall job performance.
