Melamine Tote Storage Trolley

Not every classroom wants an open metal frame look. The Melamine Tote Storage Trolley is built from structural MDF rather than a metal frame, giving it a more enclosed, cabinet style presence while still functioning as a fully mobile tote storage unit. It suits classrooms and learning spaces across South Australia where a furniture finish fits the room better than an exposed frame.

The MDF construction is chosen for structural strength, built to handle the daily weight of loaded totes and the general wear of classroom life without flexing or wearing at the joins. Lockable castors give it the same mobility as any trolley in the range, wheeled into position and locked down when it needs to stay put. It is designed to fit tote box storage tubs, keeping it compatible with the tote based storage already used in many South Australian classrooms.

Available in 12 and 16 bay configurations, larger than the standard metal frame trolley range, suited to classrooms needing higher capacity from a single mobile unit. Custom sizes are available where the standard bay counts do not match the space or the brief.

Finished in E0 laminate as standard, with a wide range of Laminex and Polytec finishes available for schools wanting to match existing joinery or introduce a specific colour direction. Tray colours can be mixed and matched within the one trolley to add visual variety to the classroom.

Common Questions:

How is this different to the metal frame tote trolley?
This trolley is built from structural MDF rather than a metal frame, giving it a solid panel, cabinet style look rather than an open frame. It also comes in larger 12 and 16 bay configurations.

Will this trolley take the same totes as other storage units in the range?
Yes, it is designed to fit tote box storage tubs, so it works alongside other tote based storage already in use in a classroom.

Is 12 or 16 bay the right size for a standard classroom?
It depends on class numbers and how totes are being used. A 12 bay generally suits a standard class set, while 16 bay allows extra capacity or a shared trolley across activities. Custom sizes are available outside these two options.
