Purchasing Resources for Furniture Dollies

Furniture Dollies Types and Styles

Finding different types of furniture dollies online
By J. Stoltzfus, writer/programmer LOCAL CITIZEN Businesses of all stripes look for furniture dollies to help get everything they handle from point A to point B. Simple furniture dolly tools do the work of moving heavy items across a flat (or slightly inclined) space using some of the "simple machines" touted in high school physics.

There are a variety of furniture dollies types and styles out there on the market that have "evolved" to serve specific purposes. Businesses can find the types of furniture dollies that work best for them on the Internet, by browsing the sites of trusted vendors. Readers online can find and purchase furniture dollies for:

1. Moving a large quantity of similar items (possibly in an industrial situation) where the cargo will all be nearly identical and work the same way with the furniture dollies that the business buys.

2. Getting all shapes and sizes of furniture from one site to another to move clients, serve customers, or deal with furniture moving for house inventories.

3. Keeping these tools around for incidental moving in a warehouse or other facility, where "troubleshooting" for inventory or equipment is sometimes complicated, or in large offices where managers want to move furniture with dollies.

Get open frame furniture dollies

One option for businesses are open frame furniture dollies. These furniture dollies utilize a basic structure: cargo that is mostly flat can stand on the frame and be swished around to anywhere it needs to go.
Try:  Simple open frame steel designs are on sale at Caster Supply. Find models like the Black Cat Heavy Duty furniture dolly with features like 10 inch pneumatic tires at Tractor Supply for jobs where the business needs to buy furniture dollies that can handle the heft wherever there's a big job to do.

Acquire "wood-slab" furniture dollies

Other types of furniture dollies available are crafted from wood. Wooden closed-frame designs accommodate items with legs, cargo with a very uneven surface, or a collection of smaller items such as boxes.
Try:  Locate solid hardwood dollies as well as other dollies for moving furniture at RandMH Industrial Equipment and Safety Supplies. The "hardwood deck" of this Great Plains Wood Platform Dolly accommodates heavy cargo--find it and other options at HandTrucks.com.

Look for specialized furniture dollies

Other designs and furniture dolly sales abound in the market. Businesses with delicate cargo can find carpeted furniture dollies for sale at affordable prices that will cushion the load from the surfaces of the dolly. Other designs include cylindrical furniture dollies that are perfect for moving drums or other cylinders, where the furniture dolly may have a better "directional flow."
Try:  Hand Trucks R Us offers the carpeted dolly for around $100. Find specialty drum dollies for cylindrical "furnishings" or other equipment from Morse.
