Overview

Pony Express 1065-LS Linen and Laundry Tugger pulling two large plastic laundry bins, one blue and one green, showing its ability to handle heavy loads up to 5000 lbs.

The Pony Express Linen & Laundry Tugger is engineered to move heavy laundry bins effortlessly, with a high-torque motor and dual speed settings to handle tight spaces and long hallways.

Key Features

  • Designed for safe transport of bulk laundry bins in hospitals, hotels, and resorts
  • Quick-connect hitch system with no bin modifications required
  • Optional bin-to-bin hitch allows moving multiple bins without collisions
  • High-torque 24V DC motor with dual speed control: 0–1.5 mph (slow) / 0–3 mph (fast)
  • Built in the USA with powder-coated welded steel frame for long-lasting durability
  • Foam-filled, non-marking drive tires for smooth, indoor-friendly operation
  • AGM deep cycle rechargeable batteries with onboard UL/cUL/CE listed charger
  • Regenerative braking and automatic holding brake for safe operation on inclines
  • Ergonomic handle with horn, on/off switch, emergency stop, and charge level indicator

Safety and Control

Operators benefit from regenerative braking, emergency stop, and a holding brake for inclines. Non-marking, foam-filled tires ensure quiet, safe use on hospital and hotel floors.

Built for Laundry Transport

Specifically designed for the hospitality and healthcare industries, the tugger’s quick-connect system requires no modifications to existing bins, making it a simple plug-and-play solution.

Versatile Towing

With the optional bin-to-bin hitch, multiple bins can be safely moved in a single trip, improving efficiency while preventing damage from bins bumping into each other.

Warranty

The Pony Express Linen & Laundry Electric Tugger comes with a 2-year warranty on the frame and motor, ensuring reliable service in demanding environments.

The Pony Express 1065-LS is built for laundries, hospitals, and hotels that move full linen carts across long floors all day. Rated to tow up to 5,000 lb, it lets one worker walk a train of loaded carts from the wash floor to the chute without straining a shoulder or risking a tip. If you are sizing up options, our full lineup of 5,000 lb linen tugger units is worth comparing on wheel type, battery range, and steering so the match fits your aisle widths and shift length. Facilities that haul more than linen often pair this unit with a heavier electric warehouse cart puller for pallet dollies and supply carts, so it helps to look at both collections before you settle on a fleet.

What is the Pony Express 1065-LS used for?

The 1065-LS is an electric tugger built for laundries, hospitals, hotels and resorts that move full linen carts and bulk laundry bins across long floors all day. One worker walks behind it and tows a train of loaded carts from the wash floor to the chute instead of pushing them by hand.

How much laundry weight can the 1065-LS tow?

The 1065-LS is rated to tow up to 5,000 lb on a flat surface. Size it for your heaviest loaded bin or train rather than an average load, since ramps and floor condition reduce what any tugger can pull. An automatic holding brake keeps the load from moving when it is parked on an incline.

Do I need to modify my laundry bins to use the 1065-LS?

No. Its quick connect hitch system attaches to existing bins without modifications. An optional bin to bin hitch links several bins so they can be moved in one trip without bumping into each other.

How long does the 1065-LS battery last and how is it charged?

The deep cycle AGM batteries give up to 8 hours of operation and recharge in about 4 hours. The smart charger is built in, runs on 120 or 240 VAC, and is UL, cUL and CE listed. An automatic sleep mode saves battery power when the tugger is not in use.

How fast does the 1065-LS go, and what are its safety features?

It has dual speed control, with a slow range up to 1.5 mph and a fast range up to 3 mph, forward and reverse. The dead man thumb wheel brings it to a controlled stop when the operator lets go. The handle also has an emergency stop, a horn, an on and off switch and a charge level indicator.

Is the 1065-LS quiet and safe for hospital and hotel floors?

It runs at under 65 dBA, and its foam filled drive tires are puncture proof and non marking for quiet use on finished hospital and hotel floors. A 115 dB horn is available for loud industrial areas. The controller is IP54 rated against dust and splashes.

What temperatures can the 1065-LS work in?

It is rated to operate from 0 to 40 C, which is 32 to 104 F, so it suits indoor laundry and corridor work rather than freezing areas. The battery can be charged in a wider range, from minus 23 C to 60 C.

Do operators need training to use an electric tugger?

Plan on it. OSHA rule 1910.178 covers tractors, motorized hand trucks and other powered industrial trucks, and it requires that only trained and authorized operators use them. Your facility decides how that applies to your team. At minimum, walk each operator through the dead man throttle, the emergency stop and the speed switch before the first run.

Where is the Pony Express 1065-LS made?

It is built in the USA by EK Tech, with a welded steel frame in a powder coated finish.
