When carrying around your helium cylinder, and sometimes up stairs, safety and ease of transport is the first and most important considerations. This is where the proper selection of your hand truck comes in.
Now, you can get a hand truck made for carrying UPS boxes which has a straight back, not very functional for a rounded helium cylinder, or you can obtain a hand truck with a curved back that is especially made for carrying helium tanks.
There are essentially two major types of hand trucks, and these are:
- The 2-Wheel Hand Truck – This is your basic essential for carrying around your helium cylinder. Cost – $139.00
- The 4-Wheel Hand Truck - If you take it up a notch and get a 4-Wheel Hand Truck, you will have even greater ease of carrying it around. Since it does not have to lean on your shoulder as you carry it, you can handle the weight almost in the same way that you would move a vacuum cleaner back-and-forth. Cost – $242.00
These hand trucks are designed expressly for the balloon industry to support and transport all sizes of helium cylinders.
When you are ready to go professional and get your first real balloon decorating hand truck just email me.
And I will see that you get one delivered directly to your door.
All the best,
