Metro's Super Erecta Exchange Carts have Super Adjustable shelves with a patented release lever to allow for easy reconfiguration of shelves as supply dimensions change.

This Transport/Exchange Cart is ideal for moving supplies or linens from Central Supply or the Laundry to nursing units and other functional departments. Transport carts utilize a dolly base to endure the rigors encountered in the daily distribution of products throughout healthcare facilities.

This Deluxe unit is available in two sizes, each with (4) chrome-plated Super Adjustable wire shelves, enclosure panels on three sides, (1) solid galvanized steel bottom shelf, (4) chrome-plated posts, aluminum dolly frame with wraparound bumper, (4) 8" (203mm) resilient plate casters (2 w/brake), two or four 6" (152mm) deep tote boxes with box dividers, four or six shelf dividers and (12) label holders.

Functional: Open-wire design minimizes dust accumulation and permits air circulation, light penetration, and greater visibility of stored items. Carts are assembled without tools, utilizing an interlocking split sleeve device which allows shelf adjustment at 1" increments.

Versatile: Three series of Exchange Carts offer various cart sizes, shelving configurations, caster styles, and accessories to meet every need and condition for exchange of supplies to nursing units and functional departments throughout healthcare facilities.

Adaptable: Exchange carts within each series are accessorized with dividers, ledges, enclosure panels, Super Erecta Slides, and tote boxes in various combinations which can all be removed and reconfigured to adapt to changes in supply, volume, and packaging.

System Benefits:

Cost Reduction: An Exchange Cart System reduces inventory. Exchanged at regular intervals, usually 24 hours, carts require far less stock than traditional par level systems, eliminating surpluses.

Improved Inventory Control: Supply inventory is monitored daily, allowing strict inventory control and quick adjustment of discrepancy between usage and patient charges.

Reduced Handling: Exchange carts are handled only once between stocking and patient distribution, as opposed to par level systems which require supply personnel to take inventory, retrieve needed supplies, and return to the user site.

Flexible: Changes in the type and quantity of supplies, utilized due to fluctuations in patient census and profile, can be recognized daily and instantly responded to with cart stocking adjustments.
