Chair Dolly Stacking

Chair Dolly Stackers Ease Movement, Storage Of Chairs

Chair dollies are used to store and transport chairs, and come in an assortment of types and sizes. Chair dolly stacking is useful for maximizing storage space, as well as for moving a large number of chairs from one place. Many chair dollies are designed to alleviate the need to move any stacks of chairs by hand. These dollies typically work by sliding underneath a stack of chairs and then hoisting them off the ground for easy and simple movement and storage.

Take a look at the specs

Different dollies have different features, and it is worthwhile to look around a bit before selecting the dolly that best meets your needs. Though there are many varieties of dollies, many will fit with any number of different chair types. If the chairs can be stacked, the dollies can be used.

So, take a look at the specs of the different dollies to see if they have the added features that would work well for your particular situation. For example, many dollies come with side rails or side bumpers that help absorb the shocks of running into a wall or a door frame. These protective devices also help to prevent damage to things that can easily get bumped into when moving a stack of chairs.

Also, take a look at the material that is used in the construction of the dolly. Steel is commonly used in the construction of dollies. But here again, not all dollies are alike. The dolly should be sturdy and not wobble when moved from side to side. And you want to make sure that the dolly is large enough to meet your needs, without being so large as to take up more storage space than is necessary. Depending on the type of chair, an average sized dolly will hold up to 28 stacked chairs.

You can also evaluate and purchase dolly shells. Rather than having the leveraging device on the dolly which allows users to slide the dolly under a stack of chairs, these devices are more basic. Chairs are stacked flat on them and then the stack of chairs is used to steer the movement of the dolly. They are more basic in design and function, and they are far less expensive. These devices can be purchased for under $50.

Cost considerations

Most dollies that are designed to pick up a stack of chairs will start at around $150. Again, depending on the construction and size, dollies can cost as much as several hundred dollars. These devices are designed for heavy-duty use over the long haul, and over time, the cost of a dolly is often off-set in the savings of extra storage space and time it takes to move chairs by hand.
