Wow, this company really delivered, even though I needed to import the NOBLELIFT Manual Straddle Stacker into Canada, the purchase process was easy.
Richard Belle River, MichiganWe got this Escalera Hand Truck for getting kegs and spent grain up from a small brewery located about 3 1/2' below grade level. I'm 66 and was the first to use it. I had to get 10 half-barrels (about 130 lbs each) up for a pickup. I got them all up and in position in 27 minutes, with hardly any effort. This is an amazing piece of equipment!
Jay Clancey Ishpeming, MichiganI'm very satisfied with these Square Grand Piano Leg Dollies and the customer service of this company. Had issues ordering these specific wheels from different company and had absolutely none with this company. Was given a courtesy call after purchase and my product arrived in a very quick and timely manner. Definitely recommend
Kristopher Tulsa, OklahomaThe shipment came as promised. When you first get the Escalera Hand Truck you can see the pride the have for the equipment in the way they packed the equipment. The company is an outstanding company. They make sure there will be no damage in shipment. The unit came as expected. The accessory wheels were an easy add-on.
Carl Bell Kingston, New YorkVery innovative! Once I spoke with a salesperson, I was sold on buying the Scoop Dolly for widows. I hope it will hold up to the construction work I have ahead.
Elmer Buzzard Carrollton, VirginiaAll we do is install water heaters and the Liftkar has proven itself well beyond our expectation. Keep up the good work.
Curtis Witherspoon Water Heater Services, LLC Woodbridge, VirginiaTo be able to design your own hand truck exactly what you need creates a product that is best for all situations.
Randy Binghamton, New YorkOur Motor Replacement for the Escalera Hand Truck was shipped quickly and was easy to install. We’re very happy with the product, as it came with all the necessary parts. Would definitely buy from HandTrucks2Go again!
Winsupply Co. Fargo, North DakotaI seriously wish I had bought these years ago. It's made moving mattresses around our showroom so much easier. The Mattress Cart is very steady - even kings can be a one person operation. Also very glad we went with the bigger wheels.
Nate Bartlett Charlevoix, MichiganI bought this Escalera Staircat Hand Truck after careful consideration and comparing features and quality of build. Upon receiving my unit I noticed how superbly it was packaged against damage, and like the functionality and design of the forklift accessory as well as the ease in which the battery can be charged and maintained. One can see immediately the attention to detail the company pays to ensuring the final product is built for heavy duty operation. I'd recommend this unit to anyone! Will defintely be coming back here to buy again.
Paul Merritt Carlisle, PennsylvaniaThe Anderson Dolly has made our job so easy. Now it only take 2 guys to move a larger Refrigration box inside a convenience store where it used to take 5 guys.

Richard Wilson Bradford, OhioThe Escalera Staircat Electric Hand Truck makes it easy to take heavy cabinets, comparable in size and weight to a vending machine, up the stairs. I replaced a model that lasted over 15 years, these climbers are incredibly durable.
Adolfo Ramirez Bridgeview, IllinoisI can't believe how easy the Anderson Dolly makes moving appliances. We have 150 apartments that are very small. No more tilting and trying not to hit the walls and doors. One person moving made simple and fast.
Todd Hardy Sterling Heights, MichiganI was in need of a hand truck that was light weight and able to pick up 2 stacks of milk crates at the same time. I could not find anything finished that would work on Amazon, Uline, etc. I found Handstrucks2go on Google and saw that I could customize the hand truck for my needs. I was able to design one that had a wide base with really cool wheels. The finished product was appreciated by the staff that use it everyday. They keep asking why it took so long to get a hand truck that works. Thanks Handtrucks2go.
Todd Eanes Tucson, ArizonaThis is the second set of Twin Dollies I have purchased from Handtrucks2go. These are used to move 800lb hydraulic elevator tank/ pump assemblies/ tall elevator controllers, and misc elevator crates in and out of buildings. These are very good at stabilizing heavy loads, steering around corners, into elevators, and onto trucks. I plan to buy another set as needed.
Joel Ward Albuquerque, New MexicoThe service is excellent! They made sure that I get the right item and even went an extra mile to ensure that it arrives on time. I will definitely be back for more.
Kevin Webb Dartmouth , MaineThis was a repeat order. Design Your Own Hand Trucks from our previous orders arrived on time & in perfect condition. This order was no different. Absolutely would recommend Handtrucks2GO.
John Long Island City, New YorkThe Multi Mover Hand Truck has great construction; well built, well balanced and tough. Handles even the biggest loads with ease. Shipping and receiving were timely. Overall, a great deal...especially for my back!
Jay Carey Hobbs, New MexicoThese Upright Piano Dollies are just as good as the ones we installed on an upright piano a few years ago.
Peter Lindner Winfield, IllinoisI used this BP Liberator Snack Hand Truck for over five years with my previous employer. I custom-built my new hand truck to handle three stacks of product at 65.5” tall for my new distribution, and it works amazingly well.
Ronald Sloan Bigfork , MontanaI broke a wheel on my dolly. I spoke with a representative of Handtruckss2GO and she was extremely helpful on determining the correct wheel. Very easy ordering on line and received my order quickly.
Vivian Silverman Santa Monica, CaliforniaTerrific Luggage Platform Truck for our multi-purpose use! The construction is solid, the assembly was simple, the item is attractive, and it promises to be an enduring and highly functional tool in our inventory. So glad we made this purchase!
Matt Nisbet Sunnyvale, CaliforniaThe piano dolly wheels were perfect for safely moving our Baldwin Hamilton upright piano between classrooms and the gym. They arrived quickly, were affordable, and worked so well that the school agreed to keep the piano for students to enjoy during lessons and concerts. HandTrucks2Go is a great company with reliable products, an easy ordering process, and fast delivery!
Emily Nyman Derby, VermontExcellent! This Grand Piano Dolly is strong, easy to put together and rolls beautifully without scratching the floor. The design is excellent as well as you can easily play the piano while it is on the dolly. It was also delivered in time and just what we needed.
Kendra Perkins Gypsum, ColoradoJust what I needed. The front wheels on my Kartmaster 500 wore out after many years of service.These replacements are the same quality as the original ones. Great service from Handtrucks2Go and quick shipping. Thanks.
Cliff Derbins Mandevile, LouisianaThe Escalera Motorized Stair Climber with Forklift Hand Truck is a beast! In addition to easily lifting up to 1,200 lbs up stairs, its best feature is the "forklift," which allows you to lift loads onto the bed of a truck effortlessly.
Kenneth Stoppa Chicago, IllinoisVery happy with the purchase of the Wesco pedal lift stacker. Great lightweight and versatile pedal lift. Was priced right and the service was great.
Dan Burns Great Falls, MontanaWe recently received our stackable table cart. It was very easy to assemble upon arrival and has been incredibly convenient for our clients to use when setting up and tearing down in our rental venue.
Teri Graves Troy, OhioVery good product and service. Order was as described. Seller was very patient with me.
Alan Hasselwander Honeoye Falls, New YorkOnce Escalera Motorized Stair Climber came in we put it to use immediately. We really appreciate the quality and craftsmanship that was thought about behind the engineering. The simplicity and adaptability to various situations is very obvious behind what we saw in the engineering of the product. We are very pleased with the purchase and will continue to use it for as long as we can. We move heavy HVAC compressors up and down stairs in places where it's not convenient or advantageous to wait for a crane. Huge time and back saver!
Joseph Ledwinka Columbus, OhioMy residents LOVE their new Shopping Carts. We are a beach community and these are perfect for the environment. They are a little larger than the previous metal ones but all residents have commented on how light they are. A very satisfied customer.
Debra Agamaite Clearwater, FloridaAs a plumbing contractor with a fully equipped machine shop, I was going to make one myself but decided to spend the $ and not look back. Extremely happy I did, the Escalera Hand Trucks are worth the time and $ I would have had to put into it. It is well designed and has grease zerks and flat free tires. Spend the money,you will not regret it.
Michael Collyer Chicago, IllinoisThis Escalera Hand Truck is very high quality, it's extremely useful for many different applications. I have used many different hand trucks and dollies for over 40 yrs - this is definitely the best by far!

John Duggan Charleston, West VirginiaI purchased two WH09 tires from HandTrucks2Go, and when one had an issue, their customer service was exceptional. They quickly resolved the problem by sending a replacement tire without hassle. I’m truly impressed with their excellent customer care and communication. You’ve gained a customer for life!
Robert Kammerzell Glen Burnie, MarylandCustomer service was excellent. They verified I was purchasing the correct replacement part before placing the order. Shipping was fast and the part work perfectly! I would recommend this company to anyone and would absolutely buy again from them.

Stuart Neale St. Louis, MissouriThe Grand Piano Dolly was very high quality and worked just as advertised. It came a few days earlier than expected.

Walt Sayre Keene, New HampshireMy order was quickly and efficiently processed. Customer service readily identified the required part.
Howard Lane Buckeye, ArizonaHandtrucks2GO is the only place I order my hand trucks from. From the great customer service to low prices, you can't go wrong with them! The Magliner Convertible Hand Trucks are versatile and I can use it for most jobs!
Leslie Allen Jacksonville, FloridaGreat service on this purchase from beginnong to end. The product arrived quickly and the handtrucks went together easily with all the hardware included. Even the hardware is good quality and the BP Liberator Hand Truck will last a long time, we already have few of this brand. Glad to find a good deal on some new ones.

Todd Tisdell Santa Clarita, Californiathe only place I could find to replace my Kartmaster wheels. Ordering and delivery was quick & efficient!
Jerry Houston, TexasI lost a clip for my hand truck that holds the handle on. I searched everywhere to no avail and finally got a number for Handtrucks2Go. They sent two right out and they came fast and are perfect. It saved me from having to purchase a new cart!
Gail Scriver Sioux Falls, South DakotaWe have had this same Lectro-Truck for 25 years. This new model 6512E is like on steroids. Very pleased with our purchase. If you have to carry heavy items up and down stairs. This unit will do it for you. Love our Lectro-Truck.
Jimmy North Charlottesville, VirginiaI own a HVAC company. I recently had back surgery and I needed to find a way to load/unload from my trucks and get my equipment/ units up and downstairs, in attics and on shelves. This is it! To me the $3,000+ expense was kinda steep but compared to my $90,000+ surgery I feel like it's a great investment.
I purchased the Escalera Motorized Stair Climber along with Hitch/Reciever and the Big Wheel attachments which are most definitely must haves. Being able to move my HVAC equipment by myself has been quite liberating and is saving a lot of additional labor expenses. It's a little slow, it takes me about 2-3 minutes to go up a flight of stairs by myself, which is fine considering that I am not hurting myself or tired after I'm done.
Learning to go down the stairs was a challenge at first but totally doable. I find myself very popular among my friends and family who have been getting me to come show off my new toy to move various large items like a pinball machine, a refrigerator, a safe etc. All in all I'm very pleased with my purchase. So YES I recommend this product.
Alan Hueytown, AlabamaThe Forklift is exactly what we were looking for! The sales person was very helpful picking out the hand lift truck to match our specs.
Tony Hart St. Louis, MissouriHandtrucks2go has exactly the replacement part I was looking for my hand truck / dolly. I could not find this item anywhere else. I am happy with my purchase.
Richard Graham Spokane, WashingtonI am very happy working with Handtrucks2go, it was an absolute pleasure! The lift performs as it should.
Joanne Trapasso Mahwah, New JerseyI have had a power assist wheelbarrow from Handtrucks2go perhaps 5 or 6 years. An incredible assist for hawling most anything. Recently I damaged the transformer for recharging the batteries. A request for assistance from PAW was quickly answered and a new transformer was delivered at a reasonable price. I can assure you this company is trustworthy.
Robert Ellis Rockport, MassachusettsWe have an oil company in Long Island New York. The 1260E Hand Truck has been a wonderful addition to our business. It helps us to move 800 and 1000 lb boilers up and down stairs with ease.
Jim Mcburnie Cutchogue, New YorkMy Escalera was well worth the wait, it has saved my back already, and I've only had it a couple of weeks. Best investment I have ever made.
Matt Lang Edmore, MichiganThe hotel luggage platform cart was purchased for the residents who live in a 13th floor condominium building. Residents praised its ease of maneuverability and functionality.
We went and purchased a second one it was so good!
The company was careful that I didn’t order an incorrect size. I appreciated that. All parts and nuts and bolts were there with plain and simple instructions.
Richard Sapp Fruitland Park , FloridaThese Escalera Motorized Stair Climbers With Forklift are the best you could find in today's market. My buddy has had one for 37 years and I would always use his and this year I decided to get my own here at Handtrucks2go. I guarantee that they will last forever.
Anthony Lane Belton , MissouriWe purchased the Escalera Staircat Powered Stair Climber Hand Truck to move appliances in San Francisco most of the elevators in these buildings are over 100 years old so we were having to do it all by hand carrying it up and down the staircases. This purchase has made life 100 times easier. We got the extended tow plate, big wheel attachment, upgraded battery, swivel caster attachment and an extra extension strap. We were able to not only move appliances but other large extremely difficult and bulky items.
Andrew Hawkins San Francisco , CaliforniaIt was a pleasure working with Handtrucks2go! Their customer support representative made it very easy to order, and I received the item quickly.
Earl Beahr Bellville, OhioOrder was worth the wait! Handtrucks2GO's replacement wheels are even better than the original manufacturer equipment!
Dave Louisville, KentuckyEasy Peesy. One call, gave model and what item I needed and was done checking out in under 15 min. Arrived earlier tah expected too.
Robert Workman Wooster, AlabamaJust what I asked for great product. Handtrucks2go is defintely a quality company, would purchase again!
Daniel Tokas Green Mountain, North CarolinaAfter consulting customer service, I purchased the replacement clips for an older Harper Hand Truck. They sturdy clips worked perfectly; much to my delight.
Margaret Thomas Milford, ConnecticutI have been using motorized dollies since 1979, three different designs. Escalera is by far the best. Tahnk you Handtrucks2GO for offering them at reasonable prices.
David Quiring Liberal, KansasAppreciate that Handtrucks2GO will deliver to Canada. Part was delivered on time and does the trick.
Jan Bate Peterborough, New YorkBest customizable hand truck hands down. I got the custom plate, stair climbers, 10 in wheels, and 68 inch handle. Couldn’t be happier; well worth the price.
Michael Sachse, TexasThe customer service rep was extremely helpful and intelligent. Defintely did not regret buying from this website. The products we ordered also arrived in a timely manner. We will continue to order from Handtrucks2go in the future!!
Mary Ann Humek Fort Worth, TexasGreat service, explained what I needed and got exactly what I was looking for. In an easy and timely manner.
Chace Riley Saranac Lake, New YorkEveryone is jealous of my Sandhopper Beach Wagon. Great company, need to buy some add ons. Love this
Terese Simmons Marshfield, MassachusettsI collect antique slot machines for home entertainment and getting these 250lb machines up my stairway has been a problem. Normally I rent an electric stair climber when I need one but the last time I had to drive 50 miles to the nearest rental company that had one. This was a total of 200 miles driven for a 10 minute job.
This was the last time. I decided to buy my own. The Escalera Motorized Stair Climber was a perfect solution. It is a really quality hand truck and it performs as advertised. I'm very pleased with my purchase. It also helps with my piece of mind that it is manufactured in the USA, actually in my home state, and I can get parts for it and support if it ever needs repair.
Gary Dailey Riverside, CaliforniaThe Escalera Stair Climber Hand Truck from Handtrucks2go is undoubtedly the best electric appliance hand truck in the market so far. Our moving company (Rescue Moving Services) just purchased this great appliance hand truck in bulk and we have been using it to move appliances, office cabinets, furniture and more ever since. These were shipped quickly and arrived in good shape and quality. We really recommend Handtrucks2go to everyone defintely it's worth every penny!
Daniel Martinez Lewisville, TexasGreat customer service! Great value in purchase. We will definitely purchase from Handtrucks2go again! We are a 250,000 sq ft. tennis club. This Powermate Motorized Stair Climbing Hand Truck has already paid for itself!
Gary Sowles Southfield , MichiganAfter a long search, Handtrucks2Go provided the replacement wheels I needed. HandTrucks2Go staff was courteous and professional. I ordered some similar wheels from Amazon, but had to return them because they were the wrong size even though I provided the model number with my order. I also went to several big box storers to no avail.Thanks for great service!
David Jackson Chicago, IllinoisWe just installed our new Grand Piano Dolly on our second piano, and it looks and works perfectly, just as the first one has for several years now!
