a wheeled platform used for transporting heavy or bulky items
A flatbed trolley is a type of wheeled platform used for transporting heavy or bulky items. It has a flat, open surface with no sides or walls, making it easy to load and unload large goods. Flatbed trolleys are commonly used in warehouses, factories, or stores for moving equipment, boxes, or materials over short distances. They are typically pushed or pulled manually, but some can also be motorized for easier movement. These trolleys are designed for efficiency and are often built with sturdy wheels to handle heavy loads.
