“We were looking to replace over 100 Frost Hand Push Trolleys that we have had in service for over 25 years of hard wear and tear on them. We were blown away when we were told we could just replace the wheels. WOW! As if 25 years is not enough service, we will get even more. These trolleys are the most durable, high quality and most profitable trolleys we have ever used! Amazing!”
