Vehicle dollies are used to move cars, motorcycles, boats, and heavy objects. There are two types: wheel style and trailer style. They can be used with or without a braking system. Car rental agencies and motorhomes use them to transport vehicles without adding mileage or wear and tear.
Vehicle dollies are used to help move vehicles from one place to another. They can be used for cars, motorcycles, boats and other heavy objects. Car rental agencies have had a long association with vehicle dollies, which they use to transport their vehicles from one location to another without adding mileage or wear and tear to their rental vehicles. Motorhomes also use vehicle dollies to tow a vehicle from behind while traveling.
There are two main types of vehicle dollies: wheel style and trailer style. Wheeled vehicle dollies are strategically placed under each of the vehicle’s tires. Since vehicle dollies can be used for a multitude of different vehicles, they are available in a variety of sizes. Dollies for large wheeled vehicles can easily move up to 1,500 pounds (approximately 454 kg) or more. Specialty heavy vehicle dollies with swivel wheels are capable of carrying 3,000 to 6,000 pounds (approximately 907 to 2,721 kg).
Caster-style vehicle dollies are made of heavy-duty steel capable of withstanding the weight of the vehicle being transported, as well as the pressure placed on them while the vehicle is being moved. Despite their large size and durability, wheel style vehicle dollies allow a vehicle to be easily moved through tight areas that the vehicle might normally pass through.
Trailer-type vehicle dollies are designed to be attached to another vehicle. They look a lot like a rolling cart, making it easy to get around when the vehicle isn’t running. These vehicle dollies are widely used to tow items like cars, snowmobiles, and garden tractors. Traditionally, tow vehicle dollies consisted of two wheels with a platform and ramps attached. The tow vehicle dolly is still in use, but newer designs are available with turntables that ensure a smoother towing process.
Vehicle dollies are also available with or without a braking system. Careful consideration should be given when determining whether or not to purchase a dolly for vehicles with a braking system. If one is purchased without a brake system, it is quite expensive to add one later.
