Boost your warehouse productivity and reduce manual handling risks with our premium range of warehouse trolleys, purpose-built for Australian industrial environments.

From order picking and materials movement to heavy-duty equipment transport, these trolleys are designed to handle tough tasks while keeping workers safe and operations smooth.

Whether you run a distribution centre, manufacturing plant, retail warehouse, or trade facility, our warehouse trolleys offer robust, reliable performance in high-demand conditions.

 

Benefits of Using Warehouse Trolleys

Warehouse trolleys are essential tools for handling and transporting materials efficiently across storage areas, packing zones, and workstations.

At Verdex, we design our trolleys for maximum strength, mobility, and functionality to minimise unnecessary lifting, reduce fatigue, and support workplace safety compliance. Other use cases of warehouse trolleys include:

  • Moving stock from pallet racking

  • Transporting tools to a production line

  • Organising parts for dispatch

  • Collecting returns in a retail warehouse

  • Or simply reducing forklift use for small loads

A warehouse trolley helps you move more, faster – while reducing physical strain and increasing operational flow.

 

Key Benefits

Handle Heavy Loads with Ease

Built with durable frames and reinforced shelves, warehouse trolleys can carry loads up to 500kg or more depending on the model – perfect for industrial tasks.

Improve Efficiency

Streamline picking, packing, stock movement, and order fulfilment with fewer trips and faster workflows across large warehouse spaces.

Reduce Manual Handling Injuries

Fitted with ergonomic handles and smooth-rolling wheels, these trolleys make it easier to move bulky items while protecting your team from physical strain.

Built for Industrial Environments

Constructed with powder-coated steel, welded joints, and heavy-duty castors to withstand constant use on concrete floors and in busy traffic zones

Versatile for Multiple Applications

Used across manufacturing, logistics, eCommerce, wholesale, construction, and trade – these trolleys are the backbone of material handling systems.

 

Common Warehouse Trolleys

We offer a wide range of warehouse trolleys to suit different applications, load sizes, and environments. Here are the most common types:

1. Flatbed Platform Trolleys

A single flatbed platform trolley for transporting heavy items, boxes, or equipment. Often fitted with high-capacity castors and ideal for bulk stock movement.

2. Order Picking Trolleys

Order picking trolleys with baskets or bins used to pick multiple orders at once. Designed for warehouse operations to streamline picking runs.

3. Cage Trolleys / Mesh Sided Trolleys

Cage trolleys feature high sides or enclosed cages to prevent items from falling out. Ideal for moving loose goods, returns, or irregular-shaped items.

4. Panel & Sheet Trolleys

Panel trolleys are built with upright support arms to hold large panels, boards, or sheets – often used in furniture, construction, or joinery warehouses.

5. Tool & Maintenance Trolleys

Tool trolleys offer multi-drawer or shelf units designed for transporting tools and small parts around maintenance zones or production floors.

6. Custom & Modular Trolleys

Choose models with additional features like clipboard holders, barcode scanners, bins, lockable drawers, or adjustable shelving for specialised warehouse tasks. Get in touch with us to enquire about our custom trolley solutions.

 

Features to Consider When Purchasing a Warehouse Trolley

Choosing the right trolley ensures safe handling, longer equipment life, and higher productivity. Here’s what to consider when selecting:

Load Capacity

Our warehouse trolleys range from 150kg to over 500kg SWL (safe working load). Always select a model rated for your heaviest regular load, with some margin for safety.

Wheel Type

The right castors ensure smooth mobility and load stability on concrete or warehouse floors:

  • Rubber Castors: Quiet and floor-protecting for indoor use

  • Polyurethane Castors: Resistant to oils and abrasion – best for industrial floors

  • Pneumatic Castors: Ideal for rough surfaces or outdoor use

  • Swivel/Fixed Castors: Combine for straight tracking with flexible steering

  • Brake Castors: Add stability during loading/unloading

Size & Design

Ensure the trolley fits through aisles, warehouse gates, or lifts. Consider shelf spacing or cage height for your typical load sizes.

Material & Build

  • Powder-Coated Steel: Tough, chip-resistant, and rust-protected

  • Galvanised Steel: Rust-resistant for outdoor or damp conditions

  • Heavy-Duty Welded Frames: Built for frequent, high-load use

Ergonomic & Safety Features

Look for rounded edges, non-slip handles, protective corner bumpers, or anti-slip deck surfaces to reduce workplace injuries.

 

Best Practices When Using a Warehouse Trolley

Warehouse trolleys reduce the need for carrying or lifting, but safe operation is still critical. Follow these best practices to protect your staff and equipment:

  • Do not overload – always stay within the trolley’s SWL

  • Push instead of pull to improve visibility and posture

  • Ensure items are securely positioned to avoid falling loads

  • Use brake castors when parked on ramps or uneven surfaces

  • Keep traffic paths clear of obstructions and trip hazards

  • Inspect castors and frames regularly for signs of damage

  • Train staff in manual handling and trolley use protocols

  • Assign suitable trolleys for different types of stock or environments

 

Types of Workplaces Where Warehouse Trolleys Are Used

Warehouse trolleys play a vital role in keeping materials moving and operations efficient across many industries:

Manufacturing & Production

Transport tools, parts, or completed products across workstations and assembly lines without relying on forklifts for short runs.

Distribution & eCommerce Warehouses

Speed up order picking and packing by organising products on tiered or bin-equipped trolleys – ideal for batch processing.

Trade, Construction & Maintenance

Keep tools and equipment organised with mobile maintenance trolleys on-site or in workshop settings.

Retail & Wholesale Warehousing

Support high-volume stock replenishment, returns processing, and seasonal inventory handling with robust trolleys.

Third-Party Logistics (3PL)

Boost throughput and reduce turnaround times by integrating trolleys into your picking and packing system.
