Transportation carts or goods carts are becoming more common in industrial laboratories. These laboratories need a ton of supplies regularly and moving a huge amount of supplies can become a daunting task for humans. So, these carriers are used to move things efficiently and faster. There are different types of laboratory transport carts that can be used in a laboratory.
Some of the most used carts are:
Hand Trucks- These are off of the most common and most used carts. Hand trucks are affordable and easily available. It is basically a cart with one pair of wheels and operated manually, this cart has a toe plate to store the equipment of goods and a long frame supports the weight of the goods.

The cart driver lifts a hydraulic jack to move the platform upwards to downwards, there are manual pallet trucks, gas-powered trucks, and electric jacks.
