Try Us - Info, Quotes & Support
A Chromebook charging trolley for schools is the best way to store Chromebooks in a classroom, keeping them safe, organised, and fully charged for lessons. There are lots of choices available, with educational discounts available from Classroom365. Three of the popular brands include:
Zioxi Classroom Chromebook Storage
Zioxi Chromebook trolleys and lockers offer schools great ideas for storing Chromebooks in the classroom. Trolleys can hold 16, 20 or 32 Chromebooks; they are well-built, reasonably light to move between classrooms and excellent value.
Nuwco Chromebook Storage
The Nuwco series of trolleys and lockers were popular with schools before they left the market in 2020. Recently relaunched and competitively priced, the Nuwco Chromebook trolleys differ by being made from plastic, making them light, cheap and easy to clean. They are available in various colours, and you can engrave them for additional security.
LapCabby for Chromebooks
LapCabby has the most options for storing Chromebooks in the classroom. Their UniCabby, Lyte and GO2+ ranges of trolleys, storage lockers and cases all come with a lifetime warranty (5 years electrical). Options for storing 6, 10, 15, 16, 20 or 32 Chromebook devices are available.
Zioxi Chromebook Trolley Series
Like the Zioxi iPad trolley solutions, a Zioxi Chromebook trolley is a cost-effective and reliable way to store Chromebooks in classrooms. Their storage solutions for 16, 20 or 32 Chromebooks have various features and sizes. Classroom365 likes the CHRGT-CB-16 model, their no-frills cheap Chromebook trolley for schools.
Key features of the Zioxi Chromebook Charging Trolley
- 16 bays for any Chromebook up to 14” screen size.
- Key lock, digital code or RFID access card.
- The CHRGT-CB-16 is suitable for Chromebooks with a brick-style power adapter and a separate secure compartment for the electrical supply. AC adapters do have a habit of going missing if not secured separately!
- It is also suitable for Macbooks (13”), tablets and iPads, although an iPad trolley with larger bays for rugged cases is more appropriate.
- Fold-out doors with lockable wheels for simple access.
- It is a simple, clean design with a melamine exterior, plastic shelves and a metal electrical compartment.
- A 5-year warranty is standard with all Zioxi Chromebook trolleys.
For Chromebooks with a USB-C power supply, we recommend the CHRGTUC-CB-16 model. This Zioxi Chromebook charging trolley has an integrated 60W USB-C power supply to each device rather than a UK plug socket. Plug in a USB-C cable from the power supply directly to the Chromebook.
Zioxi also offers mobile phone charging storage. However, this would be an expensive solution, especially with the imminent phone ban in schools. Check out the solutions for mobile phone storage from Classroom365 for cost-effective lockers.
The Zioxi range of Chromebook storage is Classroom365’s preferred choice for primary schools that require a cheap and reliable option. For a competitive Zioxi Chromebook trolley price, please contact us. We will beat online prices and offer free delivery. Most trolleys are available within a week for delivery, although some of the more bespoke models that are made to order may take up to 3 weeks.
Best Practices for Using Chromebook Trolleys for Schools
Chromebook storage trolleys or lockers are the best way to store Chromebooks. A trolley if you want to move them between classrooms or wall-attached lockers if there is a dedicated set of Chromebooks for a particular class. Chromebook lockers are particularly suitable for special needs classrooms with fewer students. Here are some Chromebook storage ideas and suggestions from our experience:
- Make sure you purchase the correct trolley for your Chromebooks – check screen sizes and the power adapters (USB-C or brick-style power supplies).

- Implement power management on your trolley. All our suggestions described above from Zioxi, LapCabby and Nuwco have power-saving features. There is no point in continually charging the trolley through the night and weekends; it just uses energy and can harm the Chromebook batteries.

Zioxi onView Benefits for Chromebooks
