Limit Vehicle Use with Motorized Hand Trucks
Hand lift trucks are extremely useful as forklift replacements. Since they feature powered lifting but unpowered movement, they don’t require a license to operate and take up a much smaller footprint. Material handling equipment like powered hand trucks and hand lift trucks provide the additional benefit of not requiring fuel.
Optimize Equipment Storage Space
In addition to requiring less room to operate, powered hand trucks also require considerably less space for storage. Along with being far smaller than forklifts and other vehicles, many powered or motorized hand trucks can also be further broken down to save even more space. The size difference allows for a variety of pieces of material handling equipment to be stored in an area that formerly would have housed a single forklift. That minimized storage footprint means more room to store stock.
Utilize Vertical Storage with Lift Hand Trucks
Utilizing vertical storage space can make the space you have go a lot further. An effective piece of equipment for making use of vertical storage space is a hand lift truck. A hand lift truck can lift hundreds of pounds, allowing for the storage of heavier stock in overhead space. There is a Magliner hand lift truck selection, for instance, that can lift items to be stored up to 72 inches high.
Consolidate Material Handling Equipment
One effective strategy for optimizing storage space is by consolidating a variety of stock into a single box or other storage container. Combining stock into containers of the same size and or that allow for modular storage options can further optimize the available space. By combining a variety of smaller stock items into a single container, the stock that was previously fairly easy to move is now consolidated into a heavier single container. Heavier containers may require powered hand trucks to move effectively.
