Should You Choose Electric or Manual When Buying a Pallet Truck?

It seemed like an easy decision. But when faced with manual pallet trucks and electric pallet trucks, there are always many factors that can affect your choice, and making a decision is not an easy task.

When you are faced with such a choice, you might as well ask yourself the following questions first.

1. How big is your space?

Larger warehouses usually mean longer travel distances, so“electric”is a better solution that will allow you to be more productive and keep your drivers from getting too tired.

2. Load size

If your load is high, an electric pallet truck will be a safer choice, as higher loads may cause a manual pallet truck to become unstable, creating safety concerns.

3. Ground conditions

There is no doubt that hand pallet trucks can work smoothly on flat ground. But if there are slopes or ramps on site, manual pallet trucks will be more difficult, and electric pallet trucks are undoubtedly a better choice at this time. (Too strenuous operation will cause your driver to tire easily and work inefficiently)

4. Driver

Manual pallet trucks require more physical effort, so when purchasing a pallet truck, it should also be combined with the strength of the on-site working conditions and the strength and load capacity of the driver.

Relatively speaking, the investment is larger.

But at the same time you gain efficiency,

While getting twice the result with half the effort.

It also reduces the risks that drivers may face,

Definitely worth the money in the long run.

The development of science and technology, the progress of the times. Coarse grains are eaten into polished rice, horses are turned into cars, letters are written into WeChat, the earth is rounded into a village, but I heard that you still use hand-pulled carts...

If Luotuo Xiangzi heard the news, he would probably bend over with a smile!

The society is developing faster and faster, and it can be said that it is changing with each passing day. If you want everyone to go hiking everywhere or write letters to communicate, you may be called crazy...

This is an era that emphasizes efficiency. If you don't keep up with it, you can only be eliminated.

No one can stop the progress of science and technology. Technological progress will inevitably bring convenience and speed to work. People's patience will be shortened bit by bit in order to get a share of this fast-paced era. So no matter what you do for a living, if you You need to use handling, and you still use hand-held handling, then your efficiency can be imagined.

In the fast food era, the most valuable thing is time. So electric pallet trucks are really a better choice...

First, buy a high-efficiency product at a certain price. It is understood that the efficiency of one electric pallet truck is equal to the efficiency of three manual pallet trucks, which is equivalent to one job. You can do three jobs and earn three jobs.

Second, cost savings. Generally speaking, the investment cost of a stand-up electric truck is about 30,000 yuan, and the investment of three manual trucks is about 3,800 yuan;

The salary of one electric truck driver is about 4,000 yuan/month, and the salary of three hand-pulled porters is about 10,000 yuan/month. Months accumulate every year, and in the long run, the machine is of course a lot more cost-effective.

Third, stronger security. Manpower is a very uncertain factor, because there are countless people who have been injured, sick or even lost their lives at work, especially for this kind of moving and carrying. It is best not to have an accident, but if there is an accident, can the boss be easily exonerated? You can pay out an electric truck casually, and it will cost your life and money.

But the machine is different, it has a long lifespan, and it can be repaired in time if there is any problem. Even if it breaks, I believe that when it breaks, it will already help you earn back the money you bought it, and if it breaks, it will break, which is inhumane. It is indeed safer from an objective point of view.

It may seem simple to talk about its benefits, but it is really important. If there is no efficiency, it is impossible for you to start your work and start your business. No one will wait for you to slow down, neither will the leader, nor will the customer; if there is no lower cost, or you will Without profit, or without competitiveness, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the market; without safety, no amount of gold and silver is enough to defeat you. In addition, we don't have extra lives to bear even one accident.
