2. Measure all warehouse aisles and elevator inner width to confirm trolley outer dimension limit
3. Choose surface treatment based on your working environment (galvanized for damp/cold storage, epoxy spray for dry e-commerce warehouses)
4. Select caster material: PU casters for tile floors, rubber casters for rough concrete floors
5. Check foldable function to save idle storage space when trolleys are not in use
