Live auction will start in __ days and __ hours

Start price: £2

Buyer's Premium:

A heavy-duty tubular steel sack truck, or hand truck, attributed to Harper Trucks. The equipment is constructed with a green-painted steel frame featuring a curved back and secondary support bars. It is fitted with two red plastic grips on the handle ends. The truck is mounted on a single axle with two solid rubber wheels and features a fixed steel toe plate for load placement. While no manufacturer’s plate or serial number is visible, the design and colour scheme are highly consistent with general purpose hand trucks produced by Harper Trucks, which typically feature a load capacity rating between 300 and 700 pounds. The frame shows a welded construction suitable for industrial or domestic handling applications.


Condition report:

This item is in used condition with visible signs of age and heavy service. There is widespread surface rust, particularly on the base plate and lower frame sections. Significant paint loss and scuffing are present throughout the structure. The rubber wheels show wear to the tread but remain functional. The equipment appears operational, although it has not been tested under load.
