Traditional mail carts are designed to accommodate the needs of a mail center handling small and large volumes of mail and packages.  Since these packages are generally variable in weight and size, the carts have large, reinforced bins and shelves.  In addition, these carts are constructed of heavier gauge welded construction and feature large pneumatic tires for ease of movement when traveling greater distances.  File carts offer many of the same construction benefits and are capable of using different types of trays to accommodate hanging folders, reinforced construction on the basket rails (to keep folders from sagging) and combination of tire sizes for added mobility in tight spaces. Another difference is the considerable improvement in the aesthetics and design of the file carts to complement today's office decor.    

Datamation Systems offer filing, mail and office carts from the largest manufacturers in the industry.  Filing carts from Charnstrom are available in range of sizes to accommodate most operations.  They also have fully enclosed units that secure files while in transit.  These file carts can be used to meet regulatory HIPAA guidelines for securing sensitive customer files.  We offer discounts on the full line of Charnstrom equipment.

File carts from Hamilton Sorter offer unique work surfaces and platforms.  These carts are quite attractive, using many of the same laminates and colors available for office workstations.  Carts can be configured to meet specific size and material requirements.  Hamilton Sorter file and mail carts have a limited life time warranty.  Datamation Systems is the largest distributor of Hamilton Sorter products in the United States.

Jeter Filing Systems, Inc. provides color-coding labels, folders, high density filing cabinets and filing system conversions.  Jeter carts are available that support end-tab folders for ease when filing.  These folders have the color coding labels on the side of the folder.  Other configurations are available to sort and/or store top-tab folders.  A recent introduction from Jeter is a cart that supports TAB folders and their cantilevered shelves.  Someone can remove a shelf from a wall-mount storage unit and easily place in the cart.  Datamation Systems offer a wide range of color coding products, envelopes and conversion services from such manufacturers as Jeter, GBC and Barclays.

Other manufacturers we recommend for file carts include: Cannon, PMA and Secured Mailing Systems (SMS).  These manufactures offer products with their own unique components.  Some incorporate long-lasting vinyl hanging folders, all welded construction, high capacity baskets, locking doors and security covers.  It would be difficult to describe all the products we offer in the given space of this page.  We would recommend you speak with our experienced staff to discuss your specific operational requirements.
