Portable Drum Handling Jacks for Lifting, Transporting, and Weighing Drums Portable drum handling jacks provide a compact, maneuverable solution for lifting and transporting drums in warehouses, production areas, maintenance departments, chemical handling operations, and shipping facilities. Designed to reduce manual effort and improve drum control, these steel drum jacks help move 30, 55, and 85 gallon drums depending on model and drum material. Drum Grip and Transport Options This family includes models for steel, fiber, and plastic drums, with styles that secure drums by the top lip, saddle, grapple, or adjustable chime clamp. Select designs hold the drum vertically during transport, making them useful for handling open drums while helping reduce the risk of spills.
