Reach Truck Training Course
Reach trucks are specially designed for narrow aisles and high racking, making them ideal for indoor warehouse operations, particularly in logistics, retail, and cold storage environments. Their ability to extend (or "reach") their forks forward allows for precise stacking at height in tight spaces.
We provide certified training for all Reach Truck categories – D1 and D2:
-
D1 – Lift height up to 8 metres
-
D2 – Lift height above 8 metres
Our course is tailored for novice, experienced, and refresher candidates, covering everything from safe operation and load handling to stability and working in confined areas.
Sharpen your skills and ensure compliance with our expert, hands-on Reach Truck training — delivered on-site, with small group focus and flexible scheduling to suit your business needs.
