What exactly is a pallet truck?

The pallet truck is also known as the pallet jack, pallet stacker and pallet lifter. It is as the name suggests a truck that both transports and lifts pallets. The pallets are lifted via a long tapered fork that is placed below the pallet, enabling it to be easily moved, lifted and transported to where it is needed to be. This is achieved by user operation.

What’s important to remember is that every pallet truck comes with its own weight restrictions. So it is important to choose the right pallet truck for your particular needs. You should never exceed the maximum weight, as not only could this damage the pallet truck, but it could also seriously risk the health and safety of your staff and working environment.
