Key product features

High-quality wheels and bearings

High-quality wheels and bearings

Rolling resistance is determined by the types and qualities of the wheels used. We use castors made from premium polyurethane tyres with aluminium hubs. All the castors utilise precision bearings to further reduce rolling resistance. 


To keep a loaded drum dolly in a static position when not in use all four castors are fitted with foot-operated park brakes as standard. If your company requires a bespoke wheel specification for a particular project then please get in touch.

Fabricated by qualified welders

Fabricated by qualified welders

Industrial environments are tough on equipment due to constant use and heavy handling. We design and manufacture equipment so that it lasts decades and not just a few years. Our team of experienced welder fabricators manufacture equipment making use of industry best practices. Upon completion of a batch of welded products, a second welder inspects all welds to ensure quality, conformity and zero defects.

Safe drum loading

Safe drum loading

This oil drum dolly can be loaded using one of our Drum Tippers or Drum Lifting Trolleys. Alternately another safe piece of drum handling equipment can be used to place the drum onto the dolly. It is important the dolly is only used on flat and level ground to prevent accidental roll-away which could cause injury. For other tips on drum handling safety view our latest safety guidance.
