Are the PTF flatbed carts the same as Platform Trucks?

Same product family, different categorization. The PTF aluminum diamond-plate flatbed carts also appear in the Formed Platform Trucks collection. The Specialty page includes them because they’re often searched as “B&P specialty cart” rather than “platform truck.”

What is the Three-Way Liberator?

B&P’s most-versatile convertible: converts between hand truck mode (vertical upright), platform truck mode (horizontal with nose plate as deck), and a third intermediate position for specific cargo angles. Designed for operations where the same operator handles multiple cargo types without switching equipment.

Ice cart liner — what does it line?

The B&P ice cart liner is a heavy-duty plastic insert that drops into an existing B&P or generic warehouse cart to convert it into a food-grade ice transport bin. NSF-rated plastic, sealed seams, drain plug option. Used in commercial kitchens, banquet halls, and beverage operations where dedicated ice transport carts would be cost-prohibitive.

What ships these specialty configurations?

Mostly LTL freight due to size and weight — the PTF flatbed carts in particular ship freight rather than UPS. Hand truck specialty variants (disc brake, curved back) ship UPS Ground in most cases. Stock orders ship same day from Mansfield, TX before 3 pm Central. Email info@casterhq.com for fleet shipping quotes.
