When you’re trying to decide what material handling equipment is best for getting a task done, it’s important to know the right titles to discuss your different options. When it comes to material handling, some equipment names are used interchangeably, particularly when items have similar features or are used for similar purposes.
Two of the most common repeat offenders for this misnaming confusion is dolly and trolley. Possibly because they sound the same, people often use the terms trolley and dolly interchangeably, but is there a difference between the two?
If you are in possession of (or are planning on purchasing) any battery powered material handling equipment such as a forklift or an electric pallet truck, it’s important that you know how to maintain your equipment properly.
