Equipment · Forklifts
Warehouse units, rough-terrain lifts and telehandlers — small machines with awkward loading.
Forklifts are deceptively simple. A standard warehouse unit is light enough for a flatbed or hotshot and moves without permits, so the cost is usually modest. The complication is loading: many warehouse forklifts have small solid tires and low ground clearance, which makes ramp loading difficult and sometimes means a dock or a forklift-to-forklift transfer.
Rough-terrain forklifts and telehandlers are a different animal. Extended reach models get long and tall enough to need a stepdeck, and the largest telehandlers behave more like construction equipment than warehouse gear.
Flatbed or hotshot for warehouse units; stepdeck for telehandlers and larger rough-terrain lifts.
Solid-tire warehouse units often cannot climb ramps. A dock, ramp yard or lifting arrangement may be needed at both ends.
Tall masts can exceed legal height on a deck. Some come off; some tilt. Worth confirming before dispatch.
Tanks are usually removed and batteries disconnected. Say which power type you have when you book.

Straight answers
Most cannot be driven up ramps because of low clearance and solid tires. Loading is normally done at a dock, from a ramped yard, or with another lift. Tell us what is available at both ends and we will dispatch a carrier set up for it.
Yes. Telehandlers usually travel on a stepdeck, and larger extended-reach models may need permits for height or length. Give us the make and model and we will confirm before quoting.
Generally yes — most carriers require LP tanks removed or fully closed and secured, and electric units to have the battery disconnected. We confirm the exact requirement with the assigned carrier.
