As someone who's had the job of bringing carts in before... why are you redistributing them instead of bringing them inside? Was that just the policy at whatever store you worked at.

There was no inside place for them, just the parking lot sheds.

Oh, I see. My experience is with a store that didnโ€™t have enough carts, or a big enough parking lot, to justify sheds. The carts were all lined up at the front of the store, and that was it.

I guess a lot of stores have different methods. I can't remember which but one had this crazy cart wash and dispensing machine. Ours were an afterthought and placed in the parking lot. A few times the whole stack would lose hold on the end chain in the shed and cars have been hit by runaway cart trains.
