Drum Handling

For those seeking a versatile industrial material handling solution, drum handlers with automatic clamping, high weight-bearing capacities and economical durability are available. A piece of equipment such as the Easy Lift economy transporter is a cost-effective solution, while unique material handling solutions like the Zorin drum handler are available if you need the ability to lift or lower heavy drums. Featuring hydraulic lift control and a 1,000-pound lifting capacity, this adjustable dolly can lift drums of varying sizes with the ease of hand-pump control.

Another popular choice is the Valley Craft Barrel Hawk, which offers the following features:

  • Parrot-like beak clamp for side or overhead clasping of drums
  • Rear swivel casting with foot brake
  • 800-pound lifting capacity
  • Hydraulic hand pump for easy lifting
  • Ability to lift 30-, 55- or 85-gallon drums

In addition to drum handlers, pieces of equipment such as drum trucks, dumpers, cradles, forklift attachments and specialized lifters are also crucial to the safe and efficient handling of drums.
