    We can deliver RTITB, AITT and NPORS accredited forklift training as well
    as in-house training depending on the needs of our clients, we are able to
    offer training on the following:
    COUNTERBALANCE
    PIVOT STEER (BENDI)
    MULTI DIRECTIONAL
    TELESCOPIC HANDLERS
    REACH TRUCK
    LOW AND HIGH LEVEL ORDER PICKERS
    PEDESTRIAN OPERATED PALLET TRUCKS
    SIDE LOADER
    Counterbalance:
    Probably the most common type of truck in a wide variety of industries, the counterbalance has a heavy weight at the rear to help balance it when lifting goods. At the front are the forks which can be used to lift a variety of heavy objects like pallets. These forklift trucks are often seen in areas like warehouses and distribution centres.
    Reach Truck:
    These operate in a similar way to the counterbalance but are designed to work down narrower aisles in areas such as warehouses. They often have a set of wheels at the back and two legs that are used to distribute the weight. They can also reach higher than the normal counterbalance, up to about 12 metres in some cases or nearly 40 feet.
    Pivot Steer:
    Also known as bendi or flexi forklift trucks, these are also widely used in narrow areas like warehouses. One of the unique features of this type of truck is that the forks can swing 90 degrees to allow more manoeuvrability.
    Very Narrow Aisle:
    These are also called trilateral or bilateral forklift trucks and are designed for operating in confined spaces. One of the benefits of using these types of trucks in areas like warehouses is that you have much more space for storage which can help boost capacity. These trucks can be used to raise goods onto shelves as high as 14 metres in some cases.
    Multi-Directional:
    Also known as the combi forklift, this is designed for handling long and bulky loads in confined spaces. Its all-wheel drive means it has exceptional manoeuvrability with the forks able to operate in multiple directions.
    Pedestrian Pallet Truck:
    These are smaller machines that are designed to move pallets from one location to another in a warehouse area. They are ideal if you need space-saving machinery in your business and can be folded away and stored when not in use.
    Low-Level Order Picker:
    LLOPs are often seen in areas like warehouses where they are used to pick up items quickly. They can be moved while elevated which makes them very efficient and time-saving.
    Mobile Elevated Work Platform:
    While not strictly a forklift truck, mobile platforms are widely used in a range of industries. Also known as basket cranes and cherry pickers, they can raise a large platform using a hydraulic lifting system. They are often used by repair workers operating outdoors at height.
    We can train on the above and much more.
