10 tips for buying a Sack Truck
- Determine what you’ll be using the sack truck for.
- Determine how much you are willing to pay for your sack truck. Are you willing to pay a little bit more for a better design that eases the backache?
- Go online and find suppliers. It won’t take long to find suitable merchants.
- TALK to the suppliers!! This may sound obvious, but too many people assume they know the facts and instantly make a purchase. Understanding your business is key to acquiring the best buying options. Give the experts all the facts and they’ll give you good advice. …And there’s no such thing as a stupid question. Ask it anyway!
- Make sure you buy the correct sack truck for your business. There are many types of sack truck and they all do different jobs. Paying for a dual purpose sack truck today could save you money in the long term.
- Ask the price. Ask for a price-list of sack trucks that interest you. You may find a good deal on a comparable sack truck of an alternative brand.
- How long is the warranty? This is a good indicator of how long it may be before it will need attention.
- Eventually something will go wrong, so find out the cost of spare parts and also delivery lead times. Does the company you’ve chosen repair the truck and how long will it be out of action?
- Ask for specifications and detailed descriptions of the sack truck you are interested in. Weight, capacity, capabilities, material, construction, lifting, wheel sizes etc. Has it got dual or three-way purpose? Some sack trucks will shift to a trolley or have a folding footplate. All sack trucks will have detailed specifications for health and safety use.
- Find out delivery lead times and check they meet your deadlines. It could be a good buy, but if the lead time is months then it’s time for a rethink.
It always pays to use the best tool for the job. It’s sensible to invest a short amount of time and effort researching your sack truck so you can reap the rewards later.
