Airport trolleys are useful for transporting baggage to and from check-in desks inside the terminal.

Their sturdy base provides a solid platform for high volumes of luggage on three or four wheels.

Available with a choice of handle styles, basket types, as well as a range of wheel and castor options including deadman brakes, the Handle-iT range of airport trolleys is continuously expanding.

They are also available in a wide range of finishes that suit environments in a variety of sectors.

Lightweight aluminium frames form a rust-resistant body that is also highly durable, making it a vital piece of equipment for sea or riverside ports as well as at airports.

Additional features of our Airport Trolleys

The majority of our airport luggage trolleys have a deadman braking system, preventing a user from moving the trolley unless they are pressing the handle.

It’s a feature that minimises the risk of any accidents, like bumping into another traveller, and prevents a trolley from rolling away.

Every airport trolley we supply is equipped with a coin lock system, giving incentives for customers to return them. By encouraging travellers to leave their airport trolley at the correct storage locations, airport operators can save costs on trolley management and lost trolleys.

Many luggage trolleys also provide opportunities for branding and advertising on their numerous panels. This advertising space can help reduce the cost of your airport trolleys by allowing brands, local businesses, and concession stores to “sponsor” the trolleys in exchange for this advertising space.

Duty-free shopping trolleys are frequently used in concession stores, allowing customers to easily transport duty-free goods.

Due to their size, these lightweight trolleys are extremely easy to handle, providing a small top basket for shopping alongside lower storage for luggage alongside heavier items.

For those who want to have an input on their own airport luggage trolley, we also offer a bespoke airport trolley, meaning that we can modify existing designs or even make them from scratch to your exact specification to any quantity.
