Our selection of hand trucks is similarly extensive. There are many distinct types of truck subcategories in this category. Turntable trucks, dollies and skates, stairclimbing trucks, do-it-yourself trucks, platform trucks, general purpose trucks, plastic trucks, fibreboard trucks, and many more are included here. The use of the correct hand truck will greatly improve productivity and help to prevent accidents and injuries within the workplace.

Sack Trucks

The ideal way to move items around without having to carry them is with a sack trolley or sack truck. They work effectively for jobs that require you to move around goods infrequently and for both small and larger items. Given how strict health and safety laws are, you don't want to put your employees in danger by allowing them to handle excessively heavy items and of course they will thank you for providing a means to a trolley, which will also greatly increase the productivity of their work.

We aim to provide a wide selection of trolleys so that there is a good fit for every customer. We offer a wide variety of models, sizes, and purposes so you may be able to purchase the correct one for you.

Sack trucks, sack trolleys or barrows, whichever you wish to call them, are all very useful tools for moving goods around your premises or between buildings. Constructed in steel or aluminium for lightness and fitted with varying lengths of toe plate, they are a great way of moving almost anything.We have models that are designed as stairclimbing sack trucks, and they come in both manual and electric models. There are fold up types for storing in vans or car boots and there are types made in stainless steel for hygiene areas.

Platform Trucks

Action Handling have a great range of platform trucks in all sizes and capacities. They can be fitted with rubber, pneumatic or polyurethane tyred wheels and have many colour options available as well. There are some that come fitted with a box body to retain goods and ranges that are electrically powered to make the movement of goods easy.

Turntable Trucks & Trailers

Generally, our turntable trucks & trailers handle heavier or bulky items from 500kg capacity right up to 30 tonnes. They are either fitted with turntable or ackerman steering systems with which the latter can cope with very tight turning circles. We have a great range of styles, sizes and capacities to choose from, that will suit any application that you may have. They can be fitted with towing eyes so that they can be hooked up ‘in train’ to be towed behind forklift trucks or tugs. We have many options for having a box type body fitted onto the platform which will help in retaining any goods that you are moving. Drop sides, detachable sides or movable retaining bars can all be fitted. We have electric propelled versions to make the transport of goods around a premises easy and a variety of platform types can be fitted from timber to sheet steel or chequered plate. Consideration to which wheeling system will be needed dependant on the floor surface you are operating on. We offer rubber, pneumatic, polyurethane, nylon and foam filled wheels as standard as well as many other more specific types of wheeling and braking systems.
