SCHLEPP® Camera Carts - Made in Germany  🇩🇪

Lightweight. Sturdy. Single-Person Use.

Budgets for photo or media productions are decreasing, so is the size of excellent camera and lighting equipment to achieve professional results. 

SCHLEPP Camera Carts specializes on compact, lightweight Camera Carts and mobile Workstations for imaging professionals.

SCHLEPP ONE is a one of a kind camera cart and workstation for photographers, video makers and content creators: small footprint, lightweight but tough. 

At just 13 KG (28.7 lbs) net weight (without add-ons, ca. 16 KG / 35.3 lbs incl. Middle Shelf), it is without peers. SCHLEPP ONE is the lightest Camera Cart series in the world - including SCHLEPP ONE and SCHLEPP ONE-S.

Our Kickstarter project to launch the series production of SCHLEPP ONE was funded in less than one hour in spring 2025. At the end of the campaign, more than 120 pros had chosen SCHLEPP ONE Camera Cart as the tool of their choice. 

Today, SCHLEPP ONE is trusted by professionals in 30 countries around the globe. 

And yes, batches of this exclusive, German-made imaging tool are regularly sold out just weeks after availability.

SCHLEPP ADVANCE is the latest addition to our Camera Carts. It's a bit larger than SCHLEPP ONE, but still super-lightweight at 17 KG (37.5 lbs) net - without add-ons. ADVANCE is compatible with larger displays and Euro box containers (400x600). 

Advance was released in late August 2026, with the first units shipping late October 2026. The first production run of SCHLEPP ADVANCE was also made possible by dozens of pre-order customers in late summer 2026, helping us to bring this larger model to the market. 

Both models - ONE and ADVANCE - can be collapsed and fit into all regular cars, even footwells of regular cars. If you can't use it alone, or if it doesn't fit your trunk - it's not a SCHLEPP Camera Cart.

Accelerate your Workflows.

In times of social media, global interconnection and instant turnarounds, a SCHLEPP Camera Cart gives you the edge when working on set: With its sturdy, integrated top shelf, SCHLEPP ONE or ADVANCE enables tethering to your computer or tablet for instant control, editing and sharing.

When it comes to creating and capturing imagery in tight spaces such as hotels, apartments, small venues, or when trying to reach locations in tight elevators, a SCHLEPP Camera Cart is a great choice for photo and video professionals - work quickly and organized without losing time, or carrying your gear from A to B!

All SCHLEPP Camera Carts come with zero-turn capacity - they can be turned on the spot! This makes them run circles around larger or heavy duty carts.

Our Camera Carts are made from sturdy aluminium alloy shelves, stainless steel tubes, and injection molded, impact-resistant Nylon for reliable use and durability. 

The puncture-proof caster wheels are well damped and can be used on all hard grounds. They are nearly silent, with ultra-light nylon housings, and they were custom-made for our Carts by TENTE, Germany. A variant of our 5" SCHLEPP ONE wheels is available for tripod dollies - and in use and praised by dozens of digi techs and photographers around the globe for their tripod dolly workstations.

Accessory friendly.

SCHLEPP Camera Carts are modular and were designed to grow with your creative ambitions and needs - and without breaking the bank.

We continue to develop and source sturdy, super-useful add-ons for all of our Camera Cart models: laptop and display poles, our digi plate ZETA D.I. for MacBooks, and many other accessories to improve your imaging workflows. 

Our carts have several unthreaded mounting points (6.5mm and 10.5mm) for using cost-effective first- and third-party accessories such as 16mm (5/8") pins or receptors, cheese plates, or half couplers for attaching lightweight light stands to the cart.

Furthermore, we share free 3D files for printing your own accessories. Hardware development kits with exact measurements of our carts are available on request. 

Tested for Reliability and Durability.

Our carts had to pass several load test cycles with payload excess, push and pull tests, and practical tests. 

Our standard load test track (SCHLEPP ONE) took us 1- 2x/week on a 4.400 m track, pushing and pulling 70KG of sand around world famous Berghain Club, close to Rent One Photo Support. And SCHLEPP ONE prototypes were tested and abused by numerous customers of our equipment rental. 

SCHLEPP ADVANCE is even stronger due to its thicker aluminium alloy shelves, stronger tubes, and larger wheels. Pre-production units were tortured with almost 200% excess load in the streets of Berlin.

Dedicated to excellence.

Our carts were born out of decades of our own experience in the photo-, film-, TV-, and video-industry. 

We wanted to create a compact, reliable cart for solo-assignments or small crews - removing the heft and bulk of existing heavy duty carts - but without compromising on quality. 

The development was fully done in Germany - with countless lections on materials, part design, manufacturing processes, static and dynamic use scenarios...

Starting with DIY-protoypes, we developed SCHLEPP ONE from late 2022 to late 2024 - for almost 3 years - and we made it ready for mass production.

Today we can design, manufacture, and test new parts or components in just a few days (or weeks, when it comes to coated or anodized parts) with our trusted German manufacturing partners. 

Your personal Camera Cart.

And yes, SCHLEPP Camera Carts are made in Germany with great care for detail and quality.
