What is an Industrial Cart?

Industrial carts, also known as warehouse carts or utility carts, are essential tools for moving materials efficiently around a warehouse, distribution center, or retail backroom. Built to handle repeated daily use, these carts reduce manual lifting and speed up order picking, restocking, and general material transport.

Podium Carts: Featuring a raised podium and shelf on one end, these rolling carts are well suited for order picking or serving as a mobile workstation.

Wire Mesh Panel Carts: Built with three-sided wire mesh panels and fork pockets, these heavy-duty carts are designed for transporting wire mesh panels, shelving, and other bulky items around the warehouse.

Steel Order Picking Carts: Rolling steel carts, often featuring tilted pans or multiple levels, help streamline order picking and keep parts organized while moving through the warehouse.

Plastic Utility Carts: Lightweight and easy to maneuver, plastic utility carts with multiple shelves are a durable, low-maintenance option for general material handling.

Choosing the Right Industrial Cart

Selecting the right cart depends on the materials you're moving, the distances involved, and the environment it will be used in. A steel order picking cart may be best for a distribution center handling heavy volume, while a lightweight plastic utility cart may be a better fit for lighter, more frequent tasks.
