Hand Pallet Truck & Pallet Trucks

There are times that you do not need powered tools such as pallet jacks. Manual hand pallet trucks will perform just as well provided they are ergonomic and well-designed. They require less maintenance, and in many cases feature simplicity of design that ensures many years of use. Easy Rack sells a number of models that are designed for specialty applications, weight capacities up to 5,000 pounds, and durable construction to ensure years of reliable service.

Low Profile Pallet Truck
The low profile model is built with a heavy duty suspension system and lifetime lubricated bearings. It is easy to operate with a wide loop control handle that features fingertip control of lift, neutral, and lower functions.

Economical & Standard Ergonomic Hand Pallet Truck
Companies can save a great deal of money by investing in these ergonomic alternatives to forklifts. Built for user friendliness, this model features entry and exit rollers, adjustable push rods, and a spring-loaded handle that automatically returns to a vertical position when idle. Workers can pull them around the warehouse all day long without getting sore arms and backs because these pallet jacks need only 75 pounds of pulling force to function.

Pallet Truck with Scale
This innovative hand pallet truck lets you save a strip to the scales because it has its own scale built in.

Sidewinder Pallet Truck
If your warehouse aisles are narrow and hard to navigate, the sidewinder pallet jack allows you to efficiently move pallets in and out of storage. It has all the features of a standard pallet jack, and it features a capacity of 3,000 pounds and can get into even the tightest of places.

Nose wheel pallet jack
This hand pallet truck is designed for stacking pallets and skids in close rows. The fork end is set back from the front rollers, allowing it to pick up one pallet at a time. It is built with steel construction, features a push button scale, and has a foot lever activated weight readout. Total weight capacity is 5,000 pounds, and service range is from 3 1/2inches to 8 inches.

Heavy Duty All Terrain Pallet Jack
This model is ideal for heavy duty work outside. Its extra large wheels on this unit will move easily, quickly, and safely over most surfaces. The 17” front pneumatic tires are built for traction on any surface, including gravel around gravel pits and nurseries.

Big Wheel Pallet Jack
These hand pallet trucks allow you to move loads up to 4,500 pounds with an ergonomic unit built of ease of mobility. The key to its rugged user friendliness is its exceptionally large front wheels that will roll easily over uneven floors and bulky loads.

We supply companies with new and used material handling and storage equipment that provide a cost effective alternative offer alternatives to expensive corporate moves and new building construction.

How do your tools help companies save money?
We supply products to companies that help them make better use of existing space, and that also help make work safer and less time consuming.

This improves process flow in two respects. Better tools and improved organization means less time is involved in moving and storage. This means safer working conditions for employees that may have previously been working with inadequate tools, and it means fewer overtime and weekend expenses.

Do you have any used equipment?
Yes. Our shelving and pallet racking products can be purchased either brand new or used in good condition.

Prefabricated modular buildings allow you to turn of unused property into new office space, security shacks, and additional storage buildings to their location at a fraction of the cost of new construction.

In many cases, companies who are facing what they think is an imminent crisis in space find out that modular buildings make use of space that previously went unnoticed, or appeared useless.

Construction companies particularly value this service because it allows them to literally build out an entire location onsite that can then be moved at will to the next job.

Used cantilever racks make excellent use of space, and allow you to store more into a warehouse or storage facility.
