What is an AV cart?

An AV cart is used to store and transport projectors, televisions, computers, speakers, and other audiovisual (AV) equipment. AV carts are useful in classrooms and offices where people may need access to AV equipment on a temporary basis. AV carts have shelves, drawers, locking cabinets, and similar features to help keep these items safe and secure. Popular AV cart brands include:

Luxor AV carts

Bretford AV carts

Rubbermaid AV carts

What should I look for when buying an AV cart?

AV carts come in many styles. When purchasing an AV cart, first consider the size. It should be large enough to hold all the AV equipment required. Then, consider height. For example, a mobile TV stand will be tall, so the television can sit on top and easily be seen by a classroom or office. Meanwhile, a lectern is designed to double as an AV storage stand and a presentation station and is usually waist high. There are also adjustable height styles.

Additionally, there are special features to consider. Some AV carts are designed with specific electronics in mind. For instance, a cart may have a locking cabinet with a security code to safeguard valuable laptops.

Finally, there is appearance to consider. AV carts come in various materials, including plastic, metal, and wood. People who have an AV cart permanently stationed in their classroom or office may prefer a more aesthetically pleasing cart made of a material like wood. Some carts also have sliding panels and cabinet doors to help hide unsightly AV equipment and cables.

Why do AV carts have wheels?

Most AV carts have wheels to allow for easy movement. This is because schools and offices often have a single AV cart that many different people use. For example, a teacher can book the AV cart for a specific lesson for one afternoon. AV cart wheels should be locking so the cart can’t roll away unexpectedly. This keeps electronics safe.
