What safety features prevent plant caddies from tipping?
Share
When you're shopping for plant caddy, you need to consider:
- Locking Wheels - Plant caddies with locking wheels can be secured in place to prevent accidental tipping when locked. The wheels lock in position so the caddy doesn't roll around.
- Low Center of Gravity - Caddies with a low, wide base distribute the weight of the planter closer to the ground for better stability and less chance of tipping over.
- Weight Capacity - Choosing a caddy rated for the weight of your heaviest planter ensures it won't become overloaded and tip over. Check the weight capacity.
- Brakes/Stops - Some caddies have brakes or stops on the wheels that prevent rolling when engaged, keeping the caddy firmly in place.
- Anti-Tip Bars - Metal bars or feet on the bottom corners of the caddy help prevent tipping by keeping the edges from rolling over uneven surfaces.
