  Pallet trucks, also known as pump trucks or pallet jacks, are specialised pieces of warehouse equipment. They generally have four to eight wheels for safe and easy maneuvering, and are specifically designed to manoeuvre and lift heavy loads efficiently and safely in warehouses, distribution centres, and indeed all operational settings. They are also essential for easy loading of pallets on and off of vehicles. They work best on flat surfaces or very slight inclines. Pallet trucks really are crucial pieces of equipment for the loading and unloading of pallets and heavy loads, and are much preferred over manual handling, which can cause strain and injury to the operator.

  Important advice on how to avoid Pallet Truck & Handling Equipment Injuries and/or Accidents

  The manouevering of palletised loads is central to any warehouse or operational setting, so correct training for all operatives on how to use this type of machinery is vital to ensure the occurrence of accidents and/or injuries are minimised.

  As an employer, the worst thing you can do is to not have regular maintenance, repairs, or servicing of your pallet trucks and other handling equipment to ensure they function correctly and safely. It is also vital that you ensure that anyone who is to operate this type of machinery is fully trained and competent in the handling of such machinery.
