Is that in an elevator?
That must be a pain to collect carts if you need to use an elevator.
That's a lift and trollies around these parts, pal!
How many trollies fit on a lorry?
No, a lift.
An upsy-downsy
Yeah, I did my time as a trolley boy in my teenage years and that sounds miserable. I assume it's one of those ones where there's a car park below and the whole shop is built above that
I'm surprised they don't have the flat escalators - they'd be much better overall than using lifts.
I can imagine that there's maybe a policy against taking an entire stack of trolleys up them because if a whole stack of them does start to roll down the walkway for some reason, there's not a chance in hell one person is stopping it
.
I've never seen that before! But this is what I was meaning:
The wheels lock in, they can't roll down the slope. We have them at a local supermarket near me, they can be full and you don't need to hold the trolley at all.
The trolleys have a wheel that magnetises to the escalator.
