Truck-Mounted Forklifts

A truck-mounted forklift (TMF) is a reliable equipment choice for loading and unloading heavy materials from a trailer. Its compact size and lighter weight enable quick transport to remote jobsites and more agility than standard forklifts.

Do you own or operate a business that requires fast, efficient material handling? If you are in Minnesota, Wisconsin, northern Illinois, North Dakota or the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Fairchild Equipment is your one-stop headquarters for a truck-mounted forklift for sale that will add significant value to your business.

About the Truck-Mounted Forklift

These machines are sometimes referred to as piggyback forklifts because of their unique transportation method. They attach to the back of a flatbed truck or trailer without chains, hooks or latches. The forklift detaches quickly and easily when you arrive at the site and is ready to work immediately.

The truck-mounted forklift’s portability is ideal for businesses that frequently move between workplaces or remote sites. This equipment is an excellent choice for:

• Construction companies and contractors
• Recycling businesses
• Agriculture operations
• Retail and logistics

What Are the Benefits of Truck-Mounted Forklifts?

These versatile lifting machines provide many benefits to material handling operations:

• Functionality: These forklifts often provide the most effective and efficient solution when there is a need to travel with a forklift between jobsites.
• Mobility: The easy transportability enables businesses to have forklift capabilities wherever they need them, whether they are loading a trailer at their home facility or unloading a trailer at a remote site.
• Cost savings: These forklifts let a single employee handle loading, transportation and unloading, freeing crew members for other tasks and potentially reducing labor costs.
• Load space conservation: Because the forklift attaches to the back of the vehicle, it does not consume valuable load space on the bed of the truck or trailer.
• Safety: Truck-mounted lifts eliminate the need for manual offloading of heavy goods, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries.
• Flexibility: These lifting machines allow you to place pallets or goods anywhere, even at locations without a standard loading dock.
