Ease the burden with a hand truck!

i>What kind of car can sport just two wheels and extend a foot taller in seconds?

Frankly, there is no known ‘car’ with these unusual features but rather a ‘truck’ that will accomplish this task; a hand truck that is.

A hand truck is a device that will assist users in carrying heavy objects. A typical hand truck consists of a metal body frame with 2-4 wheels, a holding plate, and handle bars. Hand trucks come in a variety of shapes, sizes and wheels.

Here are some ways that a hand truck will serve helpful for you:

At home or at work Whether you are moving into your new home or relocating work offices, moving items like file cabinets, refrigerators or televisions can all be transported using a proportional hand truck. The amount of people transporting objects will also significantly decrease with the aid of a hand truck.

For the traveler If you are traveling alone, it might be impossible to lug around your heavy luggage. Luckily, most luggages feature wheels and handles for the traveler’s convenience. Special hand trucks can convert to four wheels to lodge more luggage for the traveler. Airports offer carts at a price, but investing in a traveling hand truck for your luggage will eventually save you time and money.

For the student Carrying textbooks is one thing. Hauling them around campus from one far class to the other is another thing. For the serious student, carrying your supplies that include your numerous, heavy textbooks is a complicated task. Some backpacks feature a hand truck option should the load be too heavy on the shoulders. The versatile ‘rolling’ backpack is accommodated with a built-in hand truck frame with a pull-out handle on top and wheels at the bottom. This feature gives the user an option to roll his/her belongings or maintain it as a normal backpack.

At Tool America, we will deliver to you a Convertible Industrial Aluminum Hand Truck that will carry up to a 600 pound capacity. Free from rust or corrosion, our extendable hand truck comes in an all aluminum body, sturdy and reliable to hold your heavy household objects.

For every mobile journey that you are bound to take, don’t stress about the weight on your shoulders; use a hand truck!
