Materials handling cart
Designed to be safe, manoeuvrable, durable and ergonomically friendly, the all new Starcart Indoor/Outdoor Model 20 (I/ O 20) is meant to perform flawlessly for many years in the toughest conditions, and on the roughest surfaces. Units are ideal for applications in recycling and waste handling in industry, municipalities, and for homeowners. A single person can haul a load of garbage or recyclables weighing up to 400 pounds with Starcart I/O 20. Its molded body has a level carrying capacity of 10 cubic feet – more, if product or material is piled up. As well, Starcart I/O 20 can double as a repository for waste and recyclables until collection day arrives. “We have applied the company’s 28 years of experience and the latest in rotomolding equipment and technology to design and produce Starcart I/O 20,” says Techstar president Bill Barnes. “We are proud of the result and are confident that users throughout North America will delight in using it.” Rotomolded construction in linear LDPE assures toughness and outstanding corrosion resistance to salt, chemicals, oil and just about all other substances. Being a non-toxic material, LDPE makes Starcart I/O 20 entirely safe for users and loads, plus it is easy to clean with a hose and standard detergent.

20-inch (500 mm) semi-pneumatic wheels are fitted with ball bearings to assure smooth carriage for all kinds of loads on gravel, grass and other uneven surfaces. Perfect for all climates and weather conditions, Starcart I/O 20 even rolls smoothly through snow. “Starcart I/O 20 is so much more robust and easy to use compared with existing carts,” Mr. Barnes says. “Starcart I/O 20 is much more flexible too, since the user has the option to pull or push loads. Plastic is without doubt the environmentally correct material of choice these days, especially for recyclables, plus you have no sharp edges or corners to worry about.” Overall dimensions of the Starcart I/O 20 are 63 inches long by 31.5 inches wide by 27 inches deep. It has a zinc-plated 3/4-inch axle and comes in an aesthetically pleasing sandstone colour. Plus, units weigh just 65 pounds for easy shipping and handling.
