Are you looking for a Hotel Luggage Cart that will hold up to beach environments or a Cart that will spend time outside?  With all of the Hotels, Motels, Resorts, and Condos that line the shores of the USA, we at Bellman Cart Solutions are regularly asked which Hotel Luggage Carts hold up best under such environments.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing a Hotel Luggage Cart for beach, ocean, or outdoor use:

• Stainless Steel Uprights are best suited for outdoor use.
• The Satin Aluminum Finish that is standard on all of our Glaro Hotel Luggage Carts has been a very popular choice for beach environments.
• Stay away from Brass!  It will tarnish.

 

Here are a few of our Hotel Luggage Cart recommendations for outdoor use:

• Glaro 6440SA High Roller Condo Cart
• Glaro 5500SA Bellman Cart
• Glaro 6135SA Value Bellman Cart
• Forbes #2432 Standard Bellman Cart
• Ex-Cell 780 CPR Supreme Traveler’s Series Bellman Cart

 

Please keep in mind that none of the Hotel Luggage Carts that we sell are made to be kept or left outside.  But, if they are used outside or your establishment near the ocean, we recommend the above.

You may not have known, but Bellman Cart Solutions also offers many Utility Carts.  Most of the Utility Carts that we offer may match the Bellman Carts you already own.  We carry Utility Carts from all of the major manufacturers: Glaro, CSL, Ex-Cell, Forbes, Harloff by Forbes, Architectural Brass, and Monarch Carts.  Our Utility Carts range in price from about $250–$2,000+.  They range in style, including: Hand Trucks, Platform Trucks, Utility Carts, and Condo Carts.

Here are a few of our favorite Utility Carts:

 Glaro 6440 High Roller Condo Cart (more info)

Not technically a “Utility Cart”, the Glaro 6440 can definitely be used as a Utility Cart.  With two removable shelves and eight side containment rails (four removable), the Glaro High Roller Condo Carts are like Utility Carts on steroids!  If you need to use it like a Bellman Cart, remove the shelves and side containment rails on one side and you’re ready to go.

Glaro 5440 Value Condo Cart (more info)

Similar to the Glaro 6440 above, the Glaro 5440 Value is great as a Utility Cart and Bellman Cart.  The differences between the Value and High Roller Condo Carts are that the Value Condo Carts have one removable shelf instead of two and six side containment rails (three removable) instead of eight side rails.

 

Ex-Cell 788 H-2 Platform Truck

Simple, very inexpensive, ready to go.  What more could you ask for?  The Ex-Cell 788 H-2 is the least expensive Platform Truck we offer.  If you’re in the market for an inexpensive utility cart, check this Platform Truck out.

Architectural Brass Platform Truck with Gate

For those wanting to impress their guests with a “Utility Cart”, look no further than the Architectural Brass Platform Truck with Gate.  With options like Brass or Stainless Steel (polished or hand satin), swinging gate on one side, joints welded instead of bolted together like most carts, the Architectural Brass Platform Truck with Gate is sure to please you and your guests!

Those are a few of our favorite and best selling Utility Carts.  For more information on those and other Utility Carts, please visit our Utility Carts section at Bellman Cart Solutions.

Most of the Bellman Carts and Utility Carts that we sell at Bellman Cart Solutions come with Solid or Pneumatic Tires.  The exceptions are:

• Some Forbes Industries Bell Carts come with soft rubber Cushion Wheels
• Harloff by Forbes Carts do not have a Pneumatic Tire option
• Monarch Hotel Carts come only with Solid Wheels, no Pneumatic option
• Crown Industries Bellcarts come only with Pneumatic Tires

So…Pneumatic or Solid?

Here are the pro’s and cons of each.

Pros for Pneumatic Tires / Cons for Solid Wheels:

• Pneumatic Tires are quieter than Solid
• Softer, smoother ride than solid

Cons for Pneumatic Tires / Pros for Solid Wheels:

• Some customers have said that Carts with Pneumatic Tires can be harder to maneuver because of the tire being wider than a Solid Wheel
• Pneumatic Tires can squat when large amounts of luggage are being transported, making it more difficult to push or pull
• Pneumatic Tires may require some occasional maintenance, Solid Wheels generally do not require maintenance
• Solid Wheels are less expensive to replace than Pneumatic Tires when the time comes

Hopefully this information will help when you’re shopping for a Bellman Cart at Bellman Cart Solutions.
