What is a Drum Trolley? 

The Controlco Drum Trolley (01-1029), is truly an amazing unit – one that will transform the challenges of moving heavy drums around your workplace.  Featuring a u-shaped drum platform, the Drum Trolley is not only a useful tool for transporting drums, but it also has the ability to act as a safe decanting station, all the while providing a massive 250 litres of spill containment capacity – more than the entire contents of the whole drum.

How does a Drum Trolley create a safer working environment?

The Drum Trolley’s well-balanced design ensures heavy drums are easy to tilt and then transport, minimising the risks of back strain and injury that are a very real factor when manually moving large drums of oil and chemical. 

When it comes to dispensing, the Drum Trolley features a large dispensing area at the front, and any spills that may occur during this process, are safely contained within the unit. Lockable castors keep the unit stable and secure in any decanting situations.

The unit can be simply stored in the vertical position, to save floor space when not in use.

How does the Drum Trolley go with hazardous chemicals?

The Drum Trolley is a double-walled design that ensures optimum strength and security against leaks and spills. The construction is 100% polyethylene which gives it excellent qualities for working with some of the harshest chemicals in use today.

Have a look at our polyethylene chemical compatibility guide, to double check this unit is suitable for use with the hazardous chemicals in your situation.

Will Drum Trolleys rust? 

No – the tough nature of polyethylene ensures that the unit will never rust or corrode. It is also highly UV-resistant so can be used outdoors (just ensure the sump is kept free from rainwater!).

If there is a spill, how can I empty/clean the Drum Trolley?

The spill containment area beneath the drum cradle is open and very easy to access. The design of the Drum Trolley directs spills towards the front of the unit allowing them to be simply cleaned out with absorbent pads or other materials.
