The RT5509 is a nine-level stainless steel trolley for storing and transporting 500×500mm dishwasher baskets in commercial warewashing operations. It moves loaded racks between dishwashing stations, drying areas, and storage zones. Operators in hotels, canteens, and high-volume restaurants use it to manage clean glassware and tableware flow during continuous service.
Commercial Application
In professional warewashing operations, clean baskets accumulate faster than they can be unloaded at a single station. The trolley holds nine full baskets on fixed rails, allowing staff to clear the dishwasher exit while crockery cools. It reduces handling time and keeps clean items elevated off floor surfaces during interim storage.
During peak service periods, the trolley acts as a mobile staging area between wash cycles and final put-away. Each level holds one standard basket, so a full load represents 180–225 plates or 270–360 glasses depending on basket configuration. Four swivel castors with two brakes allow positioned stops at multiple stations throughout a shift.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the RT5509 frame?
A: The trolley uses commercial-grade stainless steel suitable for wet warewashing environments. Exact alloy designation is available on request for compliance documentation. The material resists corrosion from detergent spray and steam exposure.
Q: What is the maximum load capacity per level and total trolley weight limit?
A: Each rail supports one 500×500mm dishwasher basket with typical loaded weight of 8–12 kg. Total capacity is nine baskets, yielding 72–108 kg when fully loaded. Castors are rated for this combined load plus trolley weight of 11 kg.
Q: Are the basket rail levels adjustable or fixed?
A: Rail spacing is fixed at factory-set intervals optimised for 500×500mm baskets. No field adjustment is required or available. Fixed spacing reduces setup time and maintains consistent clearance during daily use.
Q: Can splash guards or side panels be added to the trolley frame?
A: The RT5509 ships with open rail construction only. Custom side panels or splash guards are not offered as standard. Buyers requiring enclosed designs should contact TurcoBazaar for alternative models or custom fabrication options.
Q: Is the RT5509 available in custom dimensions for non-standard basket sizes?
A: This model is manufactured to 550×510×1700mm for 500×500mm baskets. Custom sizing is not available for the RT5509 SKU. TurcoBazaar can provide quotations for bespoke trolley dimensions as special orders with extended lead times.
