Compare the prices of folding hand carts
Folding hand carts are one of the most useful and convenient inventions. Before the folding cart was invented, it was really difficult to carry things around especially when shopping. But now anybody can carry even considerable weights whether it is shopping, warehouse boxes or legal files. The way it is built makes everything easy to carry without any extraordinary strength. The prices of folding carts are really different depending on factors such as sturdiness, functionality, manufacturer, and capacity.

Prices of folding carts: Sturdiness
It is very important that handcarts are built to be strong and resist long term manipulation. The price is different depending on the quality of the materials used for the metallic structure, for the platform, for the rollers, for the handles and the folding mechanism etc. A foldable hand truck which has a thick highly resistant structure would cost at least 10% more than a trolley cart which is built around a fragile metal assembly. Quality and long lasting rollers also increase the price of a hand truck. Aluminium hand trucks are highly appreciated for their light weight as well as sturdiness.
Prices of folding carts: Functionality
Hand carts were created for several purposes. Shopping folding hand trucks are the cheapest of all. They have rather small capacities and can cost as cheap as £10 but not more than £40. The platform hand truck is a bit more expensive as its price range is situated between £20 and £60. The utility hand carts can cost up to £120 and sometimes even more. The convertible hand truck is probably the most expensive and it costs more than £200.
Prices of folding carts: Capacity
There are small hand carts and large hand carts. A small truck which is also foldable will cost less than a large one. The price is in most cases going up proportionally. A 1000 lb folding hand cart can cost as much as £600. Of course there are exceptions to this rule as the price depends on so many factors.
Prices of folding carts: Manufacturers
A truck trolley is more expensive if it is produced by one of the famous manufacturers. For the market segment that is situated under £30, Mabis is the most expensive brand. For hand trolleys which cost more than £20 but less than £50, Global Industrial and Norris are the most expensive brands. The hand carts costing more than £50 but less than £120 have Wesco to consider as quite an expensive brand. Asian manufacturers can always produce cheaper products no matter what the industry. It is true in this situation as well.
