Jim
has a dilemma. He runs a small warehouse where he moves a
ton of inventory day in and day out. He is constantly loading
unloading trucks all day long. It is a never ending process,
but it is his job and he likes it. A colleague suggested that
he get a new hand cart to help him with his job. Jim thought
this was a pretty good idea but he only had one problem. He
has so much inventory packed into his small warehouse that
he has almost no room at all to store a hand truck or any
other lifting equipment. Jim was determined to find a solution.
He needed help and his back was killing him. He started to
research hand trucks and to his surprise he found folding
hand trucks! He thought to himself, what a great idea! This
is exactly what I need. It will help me moving all of my inventory
and at the end of the day it can be folded up and stored in
a very small space.
He continued researching and discovered
there were several models to choose from. He decided on a
Wesco model. It sounded perfect. It was designed for lighter
loads. None of his inventory weighed over a few pounds. The
boxes were just big and bulky.
When his new folding hand truck arrived
he instantly put it to use. He found that his work became
easier. With just a push of a button the handle extended and
he folded down the nose plate and the wheels automatically
moved into working position. He liked it and more importantly
his back liked it. He was able to more than double his work
efficiency. He was working smarter not harder, something his
dad often told him to do. He now had more free time to focus
on expanding his growing business. So do think folding hand
trucks really work? You bet they do!
