"The chair dolly is great! It is well made, holds the 24 chairs our clubhouse has and works well. Perfect for a small closet under a staircase."
Verified Buyer | Chair Tote Model 630
"A work horse and a money maker. Cannot imagine life without this wonderful tool. Fits through doorways, takes a beating, hauls lots of weight."
Verified Buyer | Panel Mover
"If you move a lot of chairs and often have to do it alone this is the ticket. Nicely made and holds up to 10 chairs. Rubber coating on rails keep chairs from slipping off."

Frequently Asked Questions
What equipment do convention centers use to move banquet furniture?
Convention centers and event venues typically use chair carts, table toters, and platform trucks to move banquet furniture between storage and event spaces. Raymond Products builds all three categories with capacities from 600 to 2,400 lbs, designed for the high-volume daily use that event venues demand.
How many tables can one person move at a time?
With a Raymond Products Table Toter, one person can safely move up to 8 round or rectangular banquet tables in a single trip. This cuts event setup and teardown time by more than 50% compared to carrying tables by hand, and significantly reduces the risk of back injuries for event staff.
Are your carts suitable for hotel ballroom floors?
Yes. All Raymond Products carts feature non-marring casters that are safe for carpet, hardwood, tile, marble, and polished concrete, the typical flooring found in hotel ballrooms and convention halls. Our casters will not leave marks or damage finished floors.
What is the difference between a chair cart and a chair dolly?
A chair cart is a larger, purpose-built unit designed to transport and store 36 to 84 chairs at once, typically with vertical stacking rails and heavy-duty casters. A chair dolly is a smaller, flat platform that holds fewer chairs. For event venues handling high volumes, chair carts are more efficient because they carry more chairs per trip and keep them organized in storage.
Do you offer bulk pricing for event venues?
Yes. Event venues and convention centers can request custom quotes for bulk orders at raymondproducts.com/pages/custom-cart-quote. Raymond Products offers factory-direct pricing with free shipping on every order, and most orders ship within 48 business hours from Minneapolis, MN.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. Raymond Products carts carry a lifetime warranty on manufacturing defects. Built in Minneapolis from heavy-gauge American steel for daily commercial use.
