Transport trolley for the stable | Alfako

A transport trolley for the stable makes it easier for animal owners to transport objects, feed or straw. Transport trolleys are generously built, very resilient and ideal for use in horse stables and on other farms.

A transport trolley for the stable is a vehicle that makes it easy to transport objects, especially heavy ones. At Alfako, we sell a transport trolley with pneumatic wheels and a generous load capacity of up to 250 kg as the ideal helper for any farm.

What types of transport trolleys are available for the stable?

There are different types of transport trolleys for the barn, such as the hand trolley, the tipper trolley, the bale trolley and the platform trolley. Slightly larger transport trolleys for stables include round bale trolleys, square bale trolleys and transport trolleys with trailer coupling.

We present the 7 different types of transport trolleys for the stable in detail below.

• Handcart: Hand carts are transport carts without a motor that are suitable for transporting smaller items such as buckets, hay nets or small quantities of straw. Hand carts are available with open sides and with insertable side walls. The loading area of the handcart is usually made of wood.
• Transport trolley with tipper: Transport trolleys with tippers are mobile trolleys that are equipped with a tipping device. Transport trolleys with tippers make it possible to tilt the trolley body to the side or rear, for example to easily unload animal feed.
• Bale wagon: Bale trolleys are designed for transporting long objects and have grids instead of a platform. In most cases, bale trolleys are equipped with solid rubber tyres and two or four wheels and can also carry very high loads thanks to the sturdy steel.
• Platform trailer: Platform trailers are transport trailers with a flat loading surface without side walls and are either pulled or pushed. Platform trailers make work easier for stable operators and save energy as they transport heavy objects from A to B without any problems.
• Round bale wagon: Round bale carts are used to store round bales of hay and unroll them at the horse box, which makes it easier to feed the animals. Round bale wagons are often equipped with a turntable to make it easier to unwind the hay in the stable.
• Square bale wagon: Square bale trailers are used to pick up, store and transport square bales. A square bale trailer is characterised by its long loading area and is built in such a way that several square bales can be transported safely behind and on top of each other.
• Transport trolley with trailer coupling: Transport trolleys with trailer coupling offer the option of attaching the transport trolley to a bicycle, quad bike or small tractor. A transport trolley with trailer coupling is practical for transporting even more weight. 

How big are transport trolleys for the stable?

Transport trolleys for the stable are approximately between 150 and 250 cm in length and between 80 and 130 cm in width. The height of many stable transport trolleys is around 63 to 85 cm. The loading area of the transport trolley is slightly smaller than the dimensions of the entire transport trolley due to the frame.

The tare weight of transport trolleys ranges from 55 to 190 kg, depending on the size and equipment of the trolley. In most cases, the sturdy transport trolleys have a load capacity of between 250 and 1000 kg. The larger and more robust the transport trolleys are, the greater their load capacity.

The size of the transport trolley is selected according to the loads that you want to transport on the trolley and the space available for storing the transport trolley. If the transport trolley is intended for a large stable operation where the trolley is in daily use, it is advisable to purchase a large transport trolley.

What do you transport with stable transport trolleys?

Stable transport trolleys are primarily used to transport animal feed, hay, bedding, straw, round or square bales. The transport trolley can also be used to transport buckets, water canisters, tools, manure and any riding equipment, such as saddles and bridles, in addition to feed.

The following list shows in detail what can be transported in the barn with transport trolleys.

• Animal feed: Transport animal feed such as hay, straw, round and square bales quickly and easily from the storage area to the horses using a transport trolley.
• Bedding: Easily transport new bedding from the storage location to the horses' stalls with a transport trolley and distribute it.
• Bucket: Use a trolley to transport several buckets of weighed horse feed, for example, into the horse boxes and make feeding the animals easier.
• Water canister: Transport water canisters with the transport trolley, for example to bring water to the pasture or into the horse boxes. 
• Tools: Always transport all the tools you need for the barn to where you need them with a transport trolley.
• Crap: Remove manure and waste from the horse box and transport it to the manure heap using a transport trolley.
• Riding equipment: Move riding equipment such as saddles, bridles, halters, horse rugs and saddle covers from one place to another using the transport trolley.

What material are stable transport trolleys made of?

Most stable transport trolleys are made of hot-dip galvanised steel. The loading surface of hand, platform, cuboid and round bale wagons is predominantly made of waterproof wood in the form of a screen-printed or multiplex board. Transport trolleys are made of high-quality materials to ensure a long service life.

The hot-dip galvanised steel on the transport trolley prevents corrosion and is very robust and durable. A transport trolley made of hot-dip galvanised steel is ideal for transporting heavy loads and therefore has a high load capacity of up to 1 tonne. The steel on the stable transport trolley is dimensionally stable and bends less than other materials.

What should I bear in mind when buying a trolley?

When purchasing transport trolleys, the load limit, the dimensions and the respective wheels must be taken into account. When purchasing a transport trolley, the intended use should be clear. It is important that the reason for the subsequent use of the transport trolley is matched to the size and load capacity of the trolley.

Before buying a transport trolley, think about which wheels you want on your transport trolley. Transport trolleys with solid rubber tyres have a high load capacity, while transport trolleys with plastic tyres are very robust and inexpensive. Pneumatic tyres on transport trolleys have the advantage that they have good suspension and can therefore balance out uneven surfaces better.

When purchasing transport trolleys, you should consider whether you need accessories such as a trailer coupling, a parking brake or foot brake as well as grids or walls on the sides. The desired extras should be added when buying a transport trolley or ordered accordingly.

How do you maintain a trolley?

A transport trolley is maintained by cleaning it regularly to remove dirt, feed residues and manure from the loading area. Regular cleaning of a transport trolley prevents rust, mould and damage to the trolley and is particularly important if it has come into contact with wet objects.

Regular inspection of the wheels and axles is part of trolley maintenance. The wheels on the transport trolley should be checked for wear and damage and lubricated if necessary to ensure smooth movement. Wheels on the transport trolley with pneumatic tyres should be checked regularly for the correct pressure.

It is advisable to store the transport trolley in a dry, sheltered area when it is not in use. Storing the transport trolley in a protected location is essential to protect it from the weather and extend its service life. Regular cleaning, maintenance and proper storage will ensure that the transport trolley remains functional and reliable for a long time.
