Title: Garment Carts
Post by: ebscreen on February 06, 2018, 01:04:35 PM

Anyone use these:

I'd always seen them in the big big shops and they seemed kind of odd for what we do but they
actually start to make sense at some point. Even if just for better storage of big big orders between print locations
rather than going back into boxes.

FWIW I tried to post it in IMG tags. It's hosted elsewhere. Maybe anti-hotlinking is still a thing.

maybe im' just a dummy! but simply clicking it, as well as copy/paste wasn't working!

but i'm curious how other shops would use carts like those?

Storage inbetween prints makes sense, but also seems like more work to fold and put on that cart, than unfold and re-rack.

I've always seen them just straight stacked, not folded. The carts are pretty large footprint wise.

In the past on large orders we've used pallets with broken down boxes to move stuff around.
I've seen that in other large shops as well. There's just something unnerving about it to me though.

The funny thing is I was searching for a couple days trying to find these, I couldn't figure out what they were called....

garment carts.

If there is a lot of garment "movement" they look like a good portable option.

We will do the pallet stack.  Alternate how you stack the shirts (folded into rough dozens) so you can create a durable tower ;)

We can move them around on the pallets just fine.  We can stack a good couple thousand per pallet easily.

*we are also a cleaner shop than most....

I checked the link and it's fine. The problem is on the other end, they don't allow hotlinking . . .

Exactly. This is what we aim for. Certain garments will *not* play along though. Joggers, poly, etc.
Locking the tower up would give me a bit more peace of mind.
