Trolley Containment

Stop Profits From Rolling Away

See How It Works

Protect Your Brand, Shopper Experience and Sales with the CartControl® System

Shopping trolleys are the longest point of interaction between a customer and your brand. Once your shopping trolley is removed from your location, the costs start piling up to a substantial drain on your revenue. Trolley loss is widespread and expensive.

Totally unnoticed, our proven CartControl® solution stops trolleys from ever leaving a store’s premise (interior and/or outside), saving them from abandonment, damage, or city fines. Our solution keeps your shopping trolleys at your location, and available for your customers while vastly reducing unnecessary environmental waste, and store operational costs.

"Trolleys live a hard life full of difficult work, theft, and abuse. Once taken off your property, trolleys are likely damaged from improper use and exposure before they are retrieved at cost to your store. Trolleys retrieval and maintenance is a drain on store budgets."

Director of Asset Protection, Albertsons-Safeway
