Poultry Building Trolley

With buildings that can accommodate as many as 30,000 birds, walking through with buckets to remove dead birds, do maintenance, provide supplemental feed, etc., is both tedious and time-consuming. The Poultry Building Trolley consists of a height-adjustable, 6- by 2-foot, four-sided tray suspended from a track that’s attached to the ceiling. (Tray can be stationery or dump-style.) Locomotion is manual or electric, depending on model. The electric types feature 24-volt gear-driven motors powered by rechargeable lithium-ion batteries and are controlled via hand-held remote with forward, reverse, stop, and speed adjustment options.

Cost: $3,250-$9,500
