The incredibly flimsy handle doesn’t let you scrub with any vigor on sticky messes and dried-on food. The dry pads have the weight of toilet paper, and can barely absorb a tablespoon of liquid. The wet pads start out saturated and can’t be wrung out, so they are physically incapable of wiping up spills and in fact leave streaks of cleaning fluid behind. It’s a dust mop that also comes with three disposable presoaked mop pads. The Swiffer Sweeper Cleaner Dry and Wet Mop is not a wet mop, despite what Swiffer says. The Mopnado has a fold-out pull handle that’s so short you have to bend over halfway and crab-walk when you use it. (Squirting detergent from the bottle is much easier.) The Casabella has a silly drain plug, a tiny drawer whose purpose is unclear (replacement mopheads don’t fit in it).
Each has a tiny soap dispenser that’s fussy to refill, and in the Mopnado’s case incredibly fussy to remove for refilling. Both buckets also feature unnecessary gizmos. And unlike the O-Cedar, their wringers can’t be removed, meaning they’re single-purpose tools that take up a ton of valuable closet space (they’re so big they cannot fit easily under most sinks). Yet because they can barely be filled halfway (the wringer, which obviously has to stay above water, takes up the top half of the bucket), they actually hold less water than the O-Cedar, meaning more-frequent refills. That way the rubber or metal paddle stops on the wheels can never just grab.The Mopnado has the biggest bucket we tested (20 by 13 by 11½ inches, 5.1 pounds), and the Casabella the next largest (19 by 11½ by 11 inches, 4.6 pounds) compare these numbers with the O-Cedar bucket’s (14 by 10 by 11 inches, 1.4 pounds). Never releasing the pressure fully but regulating it ever so lightly going down the ramp. The secret for me was to learn to apply a little pressure from the very beginning. The one I’ve seen the most and used the most are the handbrake mounted on the post bar at the top of the trucks handle. At least good enough that you don’t knock door jams loose or knock over the metro shelving! There a couple of different kinds of brake units. Let someone show you once and in a couple of weeks you’ll have it down. Center it and focus, shift your position to turn and you’ve got it. The weight on the unit will control everything. And for what? Running a dolly or hand truck is quite a skill but it’s easy to learn. You could injure yourself, seriously injure yourself.

I asked him if his driver had given him any instructions on its dangers and he laughed a bit, said it might had been his fault because he told everyone he’d used one before. He got to the end of the ramp, said he just barely squeezed the brake handle and the whole load flew forward almost catapulting him over the hand truck. Luckly this gentleman hadn't been going down a truck ramp but rather a curb ramp.

If you’ve ever been rolling a full dolly or hand truck with a brake on it, and have never used it before, then you know where this story is going. He asked if I had ever worked with a hand truck, particularly one with a hand brake. I was speaking to a driver helper, he’d only worked 3 routes, a new boot. Those trikes can fly through a warehouse!Īnd I just had another thought along the same lines.
Some really small one’s, really just a platform to stand on, to the 9 rider golf carts. I’ve probably seen 30 different types over the last 10 years.
Looking them up for todays show I wasn't surprised to find that there are 100’s, and I mean several hundred's, and different types of personnel carriers out there today. I think anything those two distributors sell are top of the line in my book. I’m Marty and I thank you for visiting with us again this week here at warehouse and operations as a career! Have you seen those big 3 wheel tricycles? I’ve seen a few with baskets even! And crown has some pretty nice one’s out there, I believe their distributing Cushmam’s and Raymond has the Taylor-Dunn units. Golf carts have been around in the warehouse for quite a while of course but I’m seeing a lot of new units as I’m doing site visits now. No merchandisers, no salespeople, no auditors and no out of town guests, meaning corporate management. My old facility was just over 500 sq ft and we had one, a 6 seater golf cart! Kind of a 6 seater, it had 4 seats and two little fold down seats on the rear of it with grab bars! It was only driven by a member of the warehouse management team. Are you seeing them in your facility? As facilities are growing bigger, I mean a million square feet is becoming the norm as for your large or jumbo D/C’s are concerned, people gotta get around somehow. Golf Carts and what they're calling Personnel Carriers are loose in the warehouse.
