Shopping basket and trolley GLHOE GL5021

A rolling shopping basket moves bulk catering supplies from storeroom to worktop without lifting. The basket sits on a frame with wheels, so the operator pushes the load instead of carrying it. This method reduces strain on staff and speeds the transfer of dry goods, chilled items or packaged ingredients between delivery, storage and preparation areas.

The operator loads the basket with crates, boxes or loose items up to its 60-litre volume. Once filled, the trolley is pushed along corridors, through doorways and into lifts. The wheels swivel at the front and lock when stationary, keeping the load secure while the operator packs or unpacks. No power or fuel is needed; the unit relies on manual effort and the stability of the frame.

The basket is constructed from a wire grid that allows air circulation around chilled or frozen goods. The frame and wheels are made of materials the entry does not specify, but the 390 x 400 mm footprint fits standard service corridors and lift cages. The 680 mm height keeps the centre of gravity low, preventing tipping when the basket is fully loaded.

No controls are fitted; the operator steers by hand and applies the wheel locks with a foot pedal. The 60-litre volume sets the maximum load for a single trip, while the minimum order of 90 units suits large kitchens that equip multiple stations or replace worn trolleys in bulk.

Cleaning follows from the wire grid construction. The basket is wiped or hosed down after use, and the wheels are checked for debris that could impede movement. No disassembly is required; the grid allows water and detergent to pass through without trapping residue.

The catalogue places the GL5021 in the transport and storage section, alongside other manual trolleys and bulk containers.
