Materials Handling
Materials handling covers a wide range of products, both ready-made and custom. If you have a particular materials handling problem, talk to the Wheelco staff.
The right tool for the job
Moving things from A – B sounds simple enough, but a lot of materials handling is repetitive and labour intensive. This work calls for specialist equipment.
Custom Solutions
If we don’t have an off-the-shelf solution, we can make one! Unlike many suppliers, Wheelco is “solution-driven”, meaning we offer custom design-and-build options to suit your particular requirements. Don’t put up with something that’s “near enough”; talk to us about a solution that works for you.

Handtrucks
We stock Handtrucks in a variety of configurations with load ratings from 150kg to 300kg. Available with pneumatic or puncture-proof wheels and even a stair-climbing wheel option.
Shelf & Bin Trolleys
Steel tube or plastic frame construction. Available with either flat shelves, plastic bins or coated wire baskets. Popular with food and medical industries but useful just about anywhere.
Platform Trolleys
Like our handtrucks, these platform trolleys are rated from 150kg-300kg. These are designed primarily for indoor use over flat surfaces and the PH300 has a handle that can be folded away when not in use.
Flatdeck Trolleys
These Trolleys combine the stability of 4 wheels with the convenience of a flatbed design. These are great for both indoor and outdoor applications and are available with or without sides.
Pallet Trucks
Available in several configurations, suitable for 4-way entry into CHEP pallets, standard pallets and pallet weighing. Models rated between 1500kg and 2500kg load capacity.
Scissor Lifts
Scissor Lifts are great back-savers when loading or unloading items to raised levels. They come with a foot-operated hydraulic lift, hand release, and rear-wheel braking.

Our range includes specialist products designed for specific tasks within the building, moving, food industries and more. Talk to our team about a solution for your industry.

We offer replacement parts for many materials handling products. A popular upgrade is swapping out castors to suit a particular need. Talk to our team for more part options.
