As your business grows, so do the demands placed on your operations – and one area where this becomes evident is material handling. Pallet trucks play an essential role in keeping things moving efficiently, but as workloads increase, a manual pallet truck may no longer be the most effective option. Upgrading to an electric pallet truck can drastically improve productivity, reduce operator fatigue, and ensure safer handling of heavy loads.
