Auction Trolleys
Auction Trolleys
The auction trolley is the most important logistical carrier for plants and flowers within Royal FloraHolland. The aluminium auction trolley has three standard shelves (also called trays) that can be set at different heights.
Deposit shelves
If you need more shelves, you can pick them up at one of our packaging locations. In addition to a deposit, you will also pay a small rental fee.
Availability of auction trolleys
During the peak period, we constantly monitor the national supply of auction trolleys at our locations.
A defective auction trolley must have a defect label that is available at various locations in the auction. Attach the yellow plastic defect label through the lock plate holder so that the auction trolley cannot leave the auction building. When the auction trolley no longer functions and is equipped with a lock plate, you can have a mechanic remove it.
Trolley rental for internal use
With Trolley rental for internal use SIG (SIG) we can manage the availability of trolleys during peak periods. The scheme applies to everyone who owns or rents a box at a Royal FloraHolland location and uses trolleys.
Collecting and returning lock plates
Lock plates
A proof of identification is required at each location in order to pick up lock plates. You can collect and return lock plates at the lock plate counters at each location.
Lock plates
Lock plates
A lock plate is a rectangular locking device that secures and identifies the auction trolley. Each auction trolley that is located in a truck or is used outside of the auction buildings must be equipped with a lock plate.
Lock plate key machine
The lock plate can only be removed from an auction trolley by Royal FloraHolland employees, by so-called mechanics or by customers with a lock plate key machine [slotplaatsleutelautomaat (SPSA)]. If you want an SPSA, you must request permission to use an SPSA through the Customer Contact Centre.
