Multiple ipad Carrying case? Looking for some form of a case where elementary students can transport 20 ipads safely up or down staircases

I am a teacher and my building just purchased a set of 25 ipad 2s. I am looking for some form of a carrying case where a teacher or students can take 20-25 ipads from the iPad storage cart and carry it to the classroom. Some classrooms are on the second floor so something that would hold them safely would be great. Thanks for the help!!

Check out the carts on this page. Great ways to spend taxpayer dollars!

An Apple iPad Learning Lab streamlines the management of classroom sets of iPad devices. Each lab includes 10 iPad devices and a sturdy and secure mobile cart. The cart can store, charge, and sync up to 30 iPad devices and has room for a MacBook computer. The cart rolls easily around campus, so multiple classes can benefit, and it can be locked to secure the devices when they’re not in use. For even more iPad portability, the Bretford PowerSync Tray can charge, sync, store and secure up to 10 iPad devices at once and is available only through Apple. Purchase a predesigned Apple iPad Learning Lab or let us help you build your own iPad mobile lab.

Are your ipads in protective cases? If they are, then a simple solution is to look for a rolling soft sided cooler.

Stack them in and you're ready to roll.

If however, the iPads need to have foam protection, then you'll need a custom rolling case. Here's the problem, besides the cost of the custom iPad case at over $400.00. The cases alone weigh over 30 pounds. Then add the weight of the ipads at 1.3 pounds each. We have a total weight of 75 lbs. bouncing up and down stairs....Not a good idea. That's why the custom hard sided cases cost so much money. They are transport cases designed for airline travel and rough use.
