New Tool Makes Task Of Moving Recycle Bins Easy
The EASY HOOK Bin Puller is a tool designed to eliminate bending and heavy lifting of recycle bins and other totes. Moving recycle bins can be a tedious task when moving them from the garage to the street for disposal. Moving any tote from one place to another, either indoors or outdoors, can be equally cumbersome.
Recycle bins and most totes are made of a tough plastic material which have a low coefficient of friction. This feature makes dragging the containers very easy and does not cause any wear on the surfaces they are moved on.
The EASY HOOK bin puller is a device which acts as an extension of a persons arm. It is comprised of an opening at one end which acts as a handle and a hook at the other end which acts as a curled hand (fingers). The hook end is used to cling to the handle of the bin. The handle of this tool can be pulled at different angles to accommodate variables in a person's height as the hook end rotates in the handle of the bin.
Recycle bins are not the only containers that can be moved easily from one place to another. For Example, in many stores, totes are loaded with product in storage areas. They are used to move the product from the storage areas to the display shelves in the sales areas. Currently there are low flat carts on wheels to push the totes out to the sales floor. This requires a person to bend over to push them.
Additional uses would include moving laundry baskets, small furniture and boxes etc. These tasks would be difficult for anyone, especially for the elderly and persons with
limited mobility. The EASY HOOK bin puller helps people maintain their independence.
The EASY HOOK Bin Puller is available from CONVERT-A-PULL LLC (patent pending). The cost is $14.95 ea. plus shipping and handling. For more information or for orders, contact Richard or Anita Barone. Phone 585-426-6984 at 65 Willhurst Drive, Rochester, N.Y. 14606.
