Waste oil dolly’s are used for handling and transporting waste oil in a safe and efficient manner. They are commonly utilised in automotive workshops, industrial settings, and places where machinery is serviced or maintained. Here are some specific uses and benefits:

1. Collection of Waste Oil: Waste oil dollys are used to collect oil drained from engines, transmissions, and other machinery during maintenance or repair operations.
2. Safe Transport: These dollys are designed to safely transport collected waste oil to disposal or recycling points without spillage, reducing environmental hazards and workplace accidents.
3. Storage: Some waste oil dollys come equipped with containers or tanks that allow for temporary storage of waste oil until it can be disposed of properly.
4. Ease of Use: They are equipped with wheels and handles, making it easy for workers to move heavy oil containers around a facility.
5. Compliance with Regulations: Using waste oil dollys helps facilities comply with environmental regulations regarding the handling and disposal of hazardous waste materials.
6. Efficiency: They streamline the process of managing waste oil, saving time and labor in industrial and automotive settings.

At Acres we can design dollies / trolleys similar to this unit which can be used for a variety of purposes beyond handling waste oil. Here are several alternative uses:

1. Material Transport: It can be used to transport various materials and supplies within a facility, such as tools, equipment, parts, and raw materials in industrial and manufacturing settings.
2. Cleaning Supplies: In custodial and maintenance operations, it can hold and transport cleaning supplies, including chemicals, mops, brooms, and other equipment.
3. Waste Collection: It can be used for collecting and transporting different types of waste, including recyclables, trash, or compostable materials in commercial and residential buildings.
4. Event Setup and Breakdown: In event management, a dolly with a storage tote can help move decorations, tables, chairs, and other equipment needed for setting up and breaking down events.
5. Warehouse Operations: It can assist in picking and packing operations, moving inventory, and organizing products within a warehouse.
6. Retail Stocking: Retail stores can use it for stocking shelves, transporting merchandise from the stockroom to the sales floor, and organizing inventory.
7. Office Supplies: In office settings, it can be used to move office supplies, files, and equipment between different departments or locations.
8. Laundry Services: In hotels, hospitals, or laundromats, it can transport laundry, including dirty linens, towels, and clothing to and from laundry facilities.
9. Food Service: In kitchens and catering services, it can move bulk food items, kitchen supplies, and equipment.

Overall, the versatility of a dolly with a storage tote makes it useful in numerous contexts where there is a need to transport, store, or organise items efficiently.

Within the manufacturing sector, we can supply products for various purposes to enhance efficiency and streamline operations. Here are several specific uses:

1. Parts and Components Transport Trolley: Moving parts and components between different stages of the production process, ensuring that assembly lines are continuously supplied.
2. Tool and Equipment Mobility Trolley: Transporting tools and equipment to different workstations or areas within the manufacturing facility, allowing for flexibility in operations and maintenance.
3. Material Handling Trolley: Moving raw materials, semi-finished goods, and finished products within the facility, aiding in the logistics of production flow.
4. Waste and Scrap Management Trolley: Collecting and transporting waste materials, scrap, and by-products from production lines to disposal or recycling points, helping maintain a clean and organised workspace.
5. Quality Control Trolley: Moving items to and from quality control stations, ensuring that products are efficiently checked and verified without disrupting the production flow.
6. Inventory Management Trolley: Assisting in the organization, storage, and movement of inventory within the manufacturing floor or warehouse, facilitating easy access and stock control.
7. Assembly Line Support Trolley: Delivering kits or sets of components required for assembly, ensuring that workers have all necessary items at their workstation to maintain productivity.
8. Maintenance Supplies Trolley: Transporting maintenance supplies, such as lubricants, spare parts, and cleaning materials, to different areas of the facility for regular upkeep and repairs.
9. Finished Goods Movement Trolley: Moving finished products from the production area to packaging or shipping departments, streamlining the process of getting
