Forklift Training

At Lift and Shift, the forklift training is tailored to suit the needs of both beginner and skilled forklift drivers. The course features hands-on and classroom-based modules that explain all elements of forklift use, from fundamental control to complex manoeuvres.

The forklift training also highlights safety practices, ensuring that all operators understand how to work within their environment safely.
