Heavy Duty Jobs Require Heavy Duty Cart Movers

There are plenty of industrial and manufacturing settings where employees are subject to handling exceedingly heavy loads of material or large pieces of equipment.  Even if those instances don’t occur on a daily basis, manually moving loads weighing several tons can drastically increase the chance of injury.

In order for any work environment to be as safe as possible, employees need to have access to equipment that was designed to help with the required tasks.  The CartCaddyHD battery powered cart mover from DJ Products is designed to quickly and safely allow a single employee to move large loads over significant distances.

This heavy duty battery powered cart mover attaches easily to carts with two straight casters and two front swivel casters and is capable of pushing or pulling loads of up to fifty thousand pounds.  Moving a cart loaded with that much weight would very likely occupy several employees for an extended period of time, but the CartCaddyHD allows a single employee to get the job done quickly.

The CartCaddyHD battery powered cart mover has a long lasting battery designed to run for an entire shift on a single charge.  This helps to increase employee productivity even further by eliminating interruptions caused by needing to refuel or recharge.

The CartCaddyHD has excellent traction and great power to handle heavy loads, but it is surprisingly quiet during operation.  This increases employee safety by allowing the operator to clearly hear what is going on around them and minimizing the chance for accidents.

Many industrial and manufacturing jobs are associated with a high risk of injury.  Having the right type of equipment available, like a heavy duty battery powered cart mover, can help to create a safer work environment and increase productivity.

Improve Your Customers’ Experience with Our Shopping Cart Mover

Is there anyone who hasn’t come out from a shopping trip to find those telltale cart dings in their car doors? Using our shopping cart movers is a great way to help your customers avoid that annoyance when patronizing your store.

You undoubtedly have employees assigned to handle cart retrieval, but when it’s done manually it’s a cumbersome task. The associate has to round them all up then attempt to steer them back to the store without any escaping the line. Our motorized cart pusher moves up to 50 carts with less effort.

Once the carts are in line, your employee simply attaches the cart pusher to the back. He then moves to the front and steers with one hand while operating the mover with a convenient remote control. The ease of operation reduces the likelihood of injury and means your employee spends less time outside in bad weather conditions.

Stray carts in the parking lot presents a two-fold inconvenience for your customers. They have to navigate around the obstacles when entering and leaving the lot. It’s also difficult when they attempt to shop and there are no carts available. Our shopping cart mover gives you a solution for both issues.

The shopping cart pusher is only one of the full line of ergonomically designed, battery-powered tugs and tows from DJ Products. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff can recommend the appropriate solution for your application. Please call us at 800.686.2651 for prompt assistance. If you prefer, use our online chat feature.

A Shopping Cart Retriever Can Make Holiday Shoppers Happier

It seems as if the holiday shopping season begins earlier each year so it is never too soon to make sure that you and your employees are ready to accommodate your eager but possibly stressed out customers. One thing to have at the ready is a DJ Products Shopping Cart Retriever, a labor-saving device for gathering and recycling carts from your parking lot.

Locating carts: On especially busy days, people become frustrated if they cannot find a shopping cart because all are taken. It is likely that there is one available but if it hasn’t been rounded up and returned to the store yet, you could potentially lose out on valuable sales.

Loss Prevention: Shopping carts cost money and anything that disappears from your property—be it merchandise or a shopping cart— affects your bottom line. Some people will take carts on purpose, while others may just forget to return a cart (like a Pennsylvania man who intended to steal a computer but ended up being arrested for stealing a shopping cart instead.) Bringing carts back into the store quickly minimize theft.

Safety: Whether the ground is bare or covered in snow and ice, stray carts can make a parking lot less safe: the wind can blow a cart into a person or into a car; someone who isn’t paying attention may back into a cart; an abandoned cart can block a parking spot and cause confusion. Plus, the faster an employee can gather the carts, the better. Instead of having employees outside in all kinds of weather dodging cars to retrieve and corral carts, they can use a cart retriever to steer a line of up to fifty shopping carts back into your store.
