The Pony Express 1031 Motorized Platform Cart is built for heavy-duty jobs, offering load capacities of up to 3,000 lbs. Its center wheel drive system gives it a tighter turning radius, making it easier to maneuver in crowded spaces compared to traditional front wheel drive carts.
Equipped with deep cycle AGM batteries and an onboard smart charger, the cart delivers reliable performance for long shifts. Foam-filled tires ensure smooth, worry-free operation without the risk of flats.
The ergonomic handle with thumb-wheel control lets operators easily adjust speed in forward or reverse. Regenerative braking and a holding brake add extra safety by keeping the cart secure on inclines. Additional features like the keyed switch, horn, and emergency stop enhance operator confidence.
Made with a powder-coated welded steel frame and full wrap-around bumpers, this cart is tough enough for industrial use while protecting both the equipment and surroundings.
The Pony Express 1031 Motorized Platform Cart includes a 2-year warranty on the frame and motor, ensuring durability and peace of mind for your investment.
If your daily routes include rotating M, C, D, or E oxygen cylinders rather than a flat platform load, the motorized medical gas cylinder cart uses the same Pony Express drivetrain on a dedicated, plasticized cylinder rack — same 2,000 lb capacity, same 0–3 mph two-speed control, but built for hospital and lab cylinder rotation rather than general supplies.
Rated to move 2,000 lb, the 1031 sits at the heavier end of the Pony Express load-moving carts built for warehouse and back-of-house work where pushing a loaded cart by hand stops making sense. If your loads run lighter, or you need a unit that protects polished floors in patient corridors and clean areas, compare it against our no-scuff motorized utility carts (1,500 to 5,000 lb) to find the capacity and footprint that fit your aisles.
Pony Express Motorized Platform Carts, Models 1031, 1032 and 1040

It doesn't cover service/transportation costs, normal wear items, damage from misuse, unauthorized work or modifications, and outdoor use. Shipping damage and incidental damages are also not covered.

Decks run from 25.5 by 40 in up to 34.5 by 52 in, with lengths of 40, 49, 52 and 61 in. Each model is rated for either 1,500 or 2,000 lb.
The 1031 carts are rated for 1,500 or 2,000 lb depending on the model. Size the cart to your heaviest loaded run, not the average one, since floor condition and slope add to the work the drive has to do.
The 35 Ah AGM battery gives about 8 hours of operation per charge and recharges in about 4 hours. The charger is built in and runs on 120 or 240 VAC, so the cart plugs into a standard outlet between shifts. A charge indicator sits on the handle.
Speed is variable from 0 to 1.5 mph on the low setting and 0 to 3 mph on the high setting. The operator sets speed in forward or reverse with a thumb wheel on the handle. Low suits doorways and crowded areas, and high suits long open runs.
Yes. Regenerative braking slows the cart and an automatic holding brake keeps it in place on an incline. An electromagnetic parking brake holds it when parked. A keyed power switch, horn and emergency stop are also on the handle.
The 1031 uses center wheel drive, which turns tighter than a front wheel drive cart in crowded aisles. Its deck sits 11.5 in off the floor, the lowest in the Pony Express platform range, which keeps loading easy.
The drive wheel is non-marking and puncture proof. Full wrap around vinyl bumpers and curved deck corners protect walls and fixtures, and the cart runs under 65 dBA.
The rated operating range is 0 to 40 C, which is 32 to 104 F. It can be charged from minus 23 to 60 C, about minus 9 to 140 F. Below freezing is outside the rated operating range, so check the temperature on any cold room route first.
It can. As a general rule, OSHA 1910.178 covers motorized hand trucks and other powered industrial trucks and requires that only trained and authorized operators use them. Whether it applies to your site is the employer's call, so check with your safety lead before the cart goes into service.
Yes. The 1031 series is designed and built in the USA by Electro Kinetic Technologies, with a powder coated welded steel frame.

Thanks, we've received your request. An EK Tech specialist will reach out within one business day to coordinate your demo unit.
We recently purchased a power wheel chair and had a great experience from start to finish. The process was smooth, communication was clear, and everything was delivered exactly as promised. The pricing was fair, and the quality exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend and looking forward to working together again!
Super helpful team in helping us make a decision. We needed a scooter that we could modify to carry our 2 Jack Russell’s at trials. This scooter worked out perfectly. Please let them help you. I’m sure there are bigger companies, but I felt we got such personal attention. It was an amazing experience. Delivery was just a few days. Remarkable!
Very good experience and serious. It's great to see their availability and responsiveness.
I needed a mobility scooter that was auto-folding, but not overly engineered where problems can arise, was not too heavy to lift by myself, would easily fit in the trunk of my car, and not be overly expensive. Wishful thinking I thought. Until I discovered the MOJO on my computer. This scooter ticked all my boxes, and more. It is comfortable, well built, is easy to charge the batteries without having to bend down to remove them, and even if you do want to remove them they are accessible from the standing position. the tiller is fully adjustable as are the arm rests, the folding/unfolding functions are easily initiated, and the axle release is easily achieved. A well engineered piece of kit. Now, for the customer service: I can honestly say that I have never come across anything like it; it is absolutely perfect. The gentleman I dealt with 'bent over backwards' to help me without pressuring me into a purchase, and to ensure I was buying a scooter that was right for me. Because I live in New Zealand I knew I was creating a lot more work for him, but he never complained. This and my MOJO are very much appreciated. I am very thankful for the day I first saw the MOJO on the internet. I I now own my very own MOJO.
Raffeal made my experince ordering my GIO enclosed electric scooter great and kept me up with tracking date/time of delivery. He was patient and demostrated care and great customer service.
We recently had the pleasure of experiencing service that went far beyond our expectations, and we feel compelled to highlight the exceptional professionalism of Julie and Raphael, who was instrumental in making our job easy. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking for quality and excellence.
Shout out to Raphael, sales rockstar He looked after me from my first questions all the way to getting my mobility scooter by white glove delivery inside my house, together with a crash course on using it.
I was very impressed by the shopping experience and customer service offered by heavydutymobility. com. They didn't try to put sales pressure on me and made sure that I was happy with the scooter that I was getting. They even called me after the purchased to make sure I was happy with the delivery and everything else.
My sales rep was very great at keeping me up to date on the status of my order and following up with me to make sure that my delivery experience was excellent. He even called me right after I placed the order online to review everything with me and make sure that what I ordered would work for my needs. Wonderful experience overall!!
Heavy Duty Mobility is awesome! They are very responsive and easy to work with. I would recommend them 100%
Wee have worked with them many time, they are professional and timely, Al
We are so pleased with the Scoota Trailer we ordered through Heavy Duty Mobility. We dealt with Raphael who could not have be nicer and more helpful. He stayed in close contact letting me know when the manufacturer received the order, when it was complete and when it shipped. The customer service was second to none. It was obvious in all communications with Raphael that he genuinely cared that our son's needs were met with this trailer for his new powerchair. I highly recommend going through Heavy Duty Mobility when ordering equipment for yourself or your handicapped loved ones.
Excellent service ! Raphael Perlman is honest and sincere, he understands the need of the client and listens with empathy. He follows up with the client to ensure he doesn't feels forgotten or lost in the process. Highly recommended !
Product seems to be high quality. Professionally packaged when received. The company is easy to work with.
HD Mobility did a great job helping me go over the options available and what cart would work best for my Mom. They consistently followed up with me so I stayed aware of the status of the order all the way through white glove delivery. Highly recommend HD Mobility as partners.
Great company they go the extra mile for you they make sure that you get what you need the best customer service Raphael and Julie have been the best to me helping me get my mobility back after my first scooter had to be replaced use these people!!!
Heavy Duty Mobility did a fine Job matching me up with the besr mobility scooter to meet my needs. The Afikim S-3 is a high quality piece of equipment. It operates as advertised. It maintains it's speed while ascending the hills in the small town, where I live. Heavy Duty Mobility was by my side throughout the entire purchase process. Even after I took delivery of the fine S-3 scooter and needed to have questions answered about the machine. Jon Fisher Cedarville, MI
Recently purchased a mobility scooter for a family member and my experience could not have been more positive. I spoke with Raphael on the phone and via text a number of times. He was enormously knowledgeable and helpful. Scooter arrived quickly and was just as expected.
I was looking for a scooter for my mother. I researched it online and found some sites that were selling the scooter for the same price. Heavy duty mobility was willing to beat the price as they had a 5% discount. They were also. Extremely kind and helpful. They answered all my questions and what they did not know. They contacted the company to find out and got back to me the same day. They kept me in the loop with shipping and also reached out to me to confirm receipt and to make sure everything was correct and working properly. Very impressed
Found the type of Scooter. I wanted to buy online not everyone has the kind of scooter. I have . Talked to Raphael Perlmann about the scooter I wanted. I was a little hesitant at first because they were from Florida. After talking to Raphael I felt a much more comfortable about the idea of having a scooter shipped all across the country am in Seattle WA. The scooter arrived,in shipping and had a torn seat. Ops Raphael took care of the problem got me a new seat ASP negotiated with the makers of my scooter.for me. Couple months into having my scooter. I had an issue with the wheel making a noise.. Called my dealer Raphael he worked tirelessly negotiating with the maker of the Scooter to make sure the issue got fixed . Would’ve loved not to have any issues with my new scooter, but knowing Raphael was on my side, helping me anytime there was an issue to get the problem fixed was a huge blessing. Raphael Perlmann Has restored my faith in Customer service . So many companies sell your product and then they don’t care they got their money ! Not that way at heavy mobility scooters store .

This company Listen's They are very professional, they listen to what you would like to have, and they may make suggestions, but the decisions are up to you. The person I talked with was very professional. He knew what products I may like, but in the end it was my choice of what to buy, or not buy. There was no pressure, just suggestions I appreciate people who don't pressure you into buying something.
I bought a mobility scooter for my upcoming vacation. I needed something to take me over grass. The staff at heavydutymobility.com were more than patient, guiding me with all my endless questions with endless patience! The scooter itself is from the Afiscooters brand, which was recommended and so far, so good.
Very pleased with the advice and help in getting a mobility scooter. I can't walk very far anymore and needed a reliable machine, not a cheaply-made one. Staff were very assistive.
I was helped by Emily in an exemplary way. They don't forget about you and offer very good support on how to use your scooter. Thanks, Emily, 5 stars!
Very helpful staff. They know their scooters. I ended up getting an Afiscooter model and am very pleased.
