Laundry Trolleys on Wheels for Linen & Bulk Material Handling
Commercial laundry trolleys on wheels help operators move large quantities of clean or soiled linen between collection, washing, processing, storage and distribution areas. Their deep polyethylene tubs contain loose materials during transport, while the wheeled trolley arrangement allows loads to be moved through laundries, corridors, storerooms and other busy workplaces.
These mobile tubs are commonly used as hospital laundry trolleys, hotel linen trolleys and industrial laundry carts. They are also suitable for handling appropriate bulk materials in food processing, manufacturing and other commercial environments where regular material movement is required.
When choosing a laundry trolley, consider the volume and weight of the materials being transported, the available floor space, cleaning requirements and how frequently operators load and unload the tub. Richmond’s range of rotationally moulded tubs, lids, spring bases and handles allows customers to select components suited to their handling requirements.

Specialty Product Options
Spring Base Laundry Trolleys
Spring base and top plate assemblies are available for Richmond’s 150L, 250L, 350L, 450L and 650L roto tubs. These assemblies use a spring-loaded platform that responds to the load within the tub, helping keep contents at a more accessible working height as materials are added or removed.
This configuration is particularly useful for repetitive linen handling applications where operators regularly reach into deep tubs. Available options include RTR150SPR, RTR250SPR, RTR350SPR, RTR450SPR and RTR650SPR, allowing the spring base to be selected according to the corresponding tub capacity.
Colour-Coded Laundry Tubs
Selected rotationally moulded tubs are available in blue, natural and red. These colour options can help workplaces organise linen handling procedures, identify different departments or separate materials according to internal operational requirements.
Colour-coded laundry trolleys are useful in hospitals, aged care facilities, hotels and commercial laundries where different material streams need to be identified. Richmond offers blue, natural and red tubs in its 250L, 350L and 650L ranges.

Stainless steel handles are available for Richmond’s 150L, 250L, 350L, 450L and 650L moulded tubs. These accessories provide a dedicated point for operators to push, pull and position the trolley during everyday material handling.

These tubs are used in commercial laundries, hospitals, hotels, aged care facilities and industrial environments where regular cleaning and material handling are required. The appropriate capacity and configuration should be selected according to the intended load and workplace conditions.
Large-Capacity Mobile Laundry Trolleys
