Here's a web site to look at - this vehicle can raise a worker up to 118
inches off the floor, so a 6" person would have a reach of roughly 16
feet off the floor.  The shelf can hold up to 250 pounds, so it will
hold plenty of boxes.

We used the 84" version in our Records Center and the vehicle proved to
be a true workhorse - did a great job for us.  It ain't cheap, but it's
sturdy and reliable.

Subject: Records Center Equipment Question

Hi Everyone,
   I've been asked to post a question to the listserv from our Records
Center staff.  Our records center shelving is fourteen shelving units
high (single layer). They are looking for information on the type of
lift equipment various records centers (commercial, private or
governmental) are using to get boxes up to the shelving (above say the
fourth shelf).  We're trying to decide if it is better to refurbish what
we have or buy something else.  We currently use a battery powered lift
that can carry 1 person and 6 boxes (three across and stacked two high)
to the needed height.  Any information on brands, models, features you
particularly like about your equipment would be appreciated.

Thanks,


Carrie Fager, CRM
