Which Platform Trolley Is Right for Your Needs?
Equal platform trolleys — also called trolly, goods trolley, hand trolley, or material handling trolley — are heavy-duty foldable trolleys designed for moving goods in warehouses, factories, retail stores, offices, and homes. Trusted since 2001, Equal supplies platform trolleys across India in two frame materials: PVC platform trolleys (150kg–600kg, lightweight and rust-proof) and steel platform trolleys (150kg–300kg, heavy-duty for industrial use).
PVC Platform Trolleys are lightweight, rust-proof, and easy to manoeuvre. They are ideal for indoor use in retail, offices, and homes where the loads are moderate. Steel Platform Trolleys are heavier and built for tougher environments — workshops, warehouses, and industrial floors where durability under continuous load is the priority.
All Equal platform trolleys feature foldable frames for compact storage, swivel caster wheels for easy directional control, and a flat non-slip load platform. They carry a 1-year warranty and are delivered free across India.
