Neat Way To Store Trolleys In A Shared Van Duty

Post by TheProgster »

Here is a very good tip for everyone who is on a shared van duty...Place the 2 golf trolleys in the van through the side
door both standing up side by side with the handles facing the back of the van and against the metal wire cage,
then reach over and insert the hook of one end of a bungee strap into the wire cage pull over and across the middle
of the trolleys and into the other side of the wire cage thus the trolleys are now secure and there is much more space
for your pouch bags and parcels etc...SIMPLES !!! :dance
Note...Some bungee straps like the bigger ones are a bit tricky to
fit thru the wire cage because of the larger/longer hooks but it can be done...the smaller bungee straps work fine though.
***Bungee Straps should be made available to all staff in shared vans and this trolley storage method used as
standard for a better and organised way of working*** :Very Happy

That sounds like a fair idea. I guess as long as the trolleys dont roll around too much it should work ok :hmmmm

Mind you bungie cords can be deadly, i know a postie who lost an eye to one :neutral:

If we're going for some top tips...............Make your postman think you've had a nose bleed by opening the door with tomato ketchup smeared on your top lip. :Very Happy
