Moving Jobs around the shop?

[PantherMac]

So, obviously w/ digital jobs, we're not all shuffling palettes of paper around the floor w/ tow motors like in a traditional pressroom....(God bless you if you are!)
What are folks using to move jobs around their shop (from printer to cutter to...) Most of the time we're able to stuff the stock back in the box from whence it came, but for shorter runs, 12x18... we use a lot of press-stock cut-down.... Just loose sheets floating around the plant is inherently bad for a number of reasons... So, what's everyone use (or does everyone else just stack the stuff on whatever free, flat surface exists at the moment?)
Thanks.

Sounds like you need some of these:

Utility Carts, Push Carts, Hand Carts and Rolling Utilty Carts - Uline

Yes! Now, can I find one for less than a hundred bucks! LOL!
Thanks!

We also use carts to shuffle jobs within the plant and from the digital press to bindery. Leftover stock (if it is a common stock that gets used alot) gets placed onto a shelving system within the room that our iGen is in (all shelves nicely labeled with size, stock name, weight, etc.) If it's oddball stock particular to a job, leftovers get recycled.

some Xerox production units can have High Capacity Stackers with a dolly inside; to move around the job as it is coming out of the output tray. maybe something to look at next time you are in the market for some gear.
