Stair Climbing Hand Trucks - Do They Help?

If you have never had the displeasure of moving into an upstairs apartment or a home

that has a second story, then you have never been faced with the challenge of moving dozens of large boxes up one if not several flights of stairs. What about appliances? Some places have all of the laundry hook-ups upstairs and that means that you have to drag a washing machine and a dryer up a flight of stairs. That still does not even cover the topic of furniture. Hutches and dressers and cabinets all need to be moved up those stairs.

So how do they do it? How are you supposed to get any or all of those items to the top of the stairs? You could try a hand cart but as soon as you move up one stair the whole load just might shift. What if this happens when you are at the top and the whole load goes toppling down the stairs? There are hand trucks that have built in straps and they can be used with some success but the ultimate tool for this job is the stair climbing hand truck. It is a super hero in times like these.

These wonderful tools are built just for this situation and they work great. They are available in different versions. There are manual ones. These are less expensive. This type has built in sliders making it very easy to slide the whole load right up the stairs. No more bumps on every step. There are also models that have an electric motor that actually lifts the whole hand truck and load up and onto the next step. All you have to do is hold the handle on top and push a button and let the hand truck do all of the work. Now that is working smart!
