Danish Trolleys
You can't fail to notice banks of Danish trolleys packed full of plants and plant trays on display or ready to be transported around the store if you've ever visited a nursery or garden centre. These simple but oh-so-versatile storage solutions may be commonplace in horticultural environments, yet are becoming increasingly popular in all kinds of other industries, due to their flexible, multi-purpose operation.
An oh-so-simple modular system – the key to Danish carts' success
The Danish trolley system is remarkably simple: with a wood or metal base, a metal frame that rolls on swivelling wheels, adjustable metal uprights that enable different shelf heights, and several simple wooden shelves that hold trays of plants, flowers, or whatever else you need.
Whether you buy a ready-to-go system or choose your own from our range of accessories and extra shelves, they're an ideal option for displaying your stock and for your customers to browse from. Built on a base with four castor wheels, you're ready to roll your latest stocks from one end of the shop to the other, or, when used for logistics purposes, with industry-standardised dimensions, they're interchangeable between stores and depots.
Why are Danish trolleys so popular?
Being able to add shelves, remove them, adjust the height they're fixed into the frame, and then wheel them around your warehouse or showroom with ease makes this one piece of equipment you can't do without.
Not only that, but as they were originally designed for, they make transporting quantities of plants on trucks and lorries easy. They're strong enough to carry heavy loads, form stable grids when packed into their load carriers, and if you're using them for transport, you don't need any special packaging.
Reduced packaging is only one of the great features they bring to the reduce, reuse, recycle ethos and a circular economy. They were one of the original sustainability champions, with many supply chains swapping between returnable trolleys from a shared pool.

Dutch Trolleys: FAQs
Are Danish trolleys only used in garden centres and nurseries?
A Dutch plant trolley isn't limited to carrying just plants — it can hold and manoeuvre anything you want or need it to.
Are Danish container shelves fixed sizes?
Although the size and shape of the shelves are made to an industry-standard size, the height between them is fully adjustable through the numerous slots in the metal frame.
Can you use Danish plant trolleys outside?
Yes! With shelves made from durable plywood, polypropylene, or steel wire, frames constructed from sturdy galvanised steel, and nylon or polypropylene wheels, our Danish trolleys are perfect for both indoor and outdoor use.
Are all Danish trolleys the same size?
Most horticultural Danish trolleys are built to standard dimensions: 1350mm long, 565mm wide, and 1900mm high. Although some manufacturers may use different sizes to meet specific needs, the majority adhere to the standard sizes established for the horticulture industry.
Why are they called Danish trolleys?
The original Danish flower trolley (also known as Dutch trolleys or Danish carts) was originally used to supply the flower markets in Denmark.
