    New invented trolley system

     

     

    In the future shopping trolleys should be privately owned.That is the only way people can transport goods from supermarkets, garden centres and elsewhere without the use of plastic bags or any other kind of bags.

     

     

    When people own their own trolley system they do not need to steal trolleys from supermarkets.

     

     

    In Britain alone, billions of plastic bags are given away from supermarkets each year. More than 100 thousand trolleys are stolen from supermarkets each year and many of these end up in rivers, on streets and in wastelands.

     

     

    The trolley consists of an undercarriage and a container. It is foldable, and ajustable in height. The container  can be rolled from the undercarriage into the boot of any normal car.

     

     

    The container can be made of plastic as shown or of a fabric over a aluminium frame. That way it wil be colapsable.

     

     

    The whole system, as well as helping the environment, makes it much easier for people to transport their often 50 to 80 kilos of goods home as they can roll the trolley straight into the kitchen.

     

     

    I am available to be contacted at any time if you have questions concerning my new trolley system.

     

     

    Yours sincerely,

     

     

    Poul Ravnborg
