Smooth durable surface can be easily slid across with lit- tle snagging.  The synthet- ic cable is as strong as steel without dangers of splinter- ing or slicing. The cable can be strung to aid in unload- ing heavy transports. Stain- less Steel ramp protects the bumper as well as reaching to load from carts or even up from the ground. The winch, bed and ramp are sold together with accesso- ries to create a system for loading heavy materials and items into passenger vehicles with the push of a remote controlled button. “Cardboard containers and caskets, cumbersome and normally requiring 2 people to load, slide right up on the included tow board. You don’t have to wait for a second person and combine your schedules. Anybody can do it all by themselves,” David said. The LoadAlone™ made its debut this past summer at the New York State Funer- al Directors Association an- nual convention in Saratoga Springs. David will be dem- onstrating the LoadAlone™ during the NFDA conven- tion at booth #1777. Vis- it www.loadalone.com or email DavidMurphy@load- alone.com to learn more.

They carry a full line of parts that often wear out over time, such as casket rollers, bier pins and slides that are necessary for load- ing and unloading the cas- ket. Made with a mixture of rubber materials their roll- ers are tested to ensure they hold up and do not separate like most. The rollers, as well as bier pins assemblies, are made with heavy-du- ty chrome plating to with- stand heavy usage. The bier pins are available in both hex and round pin styles. To keep bumpers free of scratches, dents, and dings from repeated casket load- ing, Infinite offers a new universal bumper protec- tor. Made of commercial- grade carpet with heavy- duty backing, the protector installs under casket rollers to secure in place and con- veniently fold up into the back when not in use. Infinite Innovations boast a 54,500 square foot ware- Headrest Tissue Holder Universal Bumper Cover Bier Pin Assembly Display A Wide Variety of Flags STRAFFORD,MO— Infinite Innova- tions has over 30 years of servicing the coach-builders who manufacture fu- neral cars.
