Forklift Truck Training

Counterbalance Trucks

The counterbalance is the most common type of lift truck in use in the UK, and the workhorse of most materials handling operations. With over 35 years of experience, we have delivered counterbalance forklift training to delegates from businesses of all types and sizes nationwide.

Our industry-leading counterbalance training covers their safe and efficient use and is delivered on all truck sizes and capacities from small, manoeuvrable electric 3 wheelers right through to 50,000kg capacity diesel machines.

Courses are delivered via blended learning, with theory training conducted online, followed by instructor-led practical sessions and testing delivered at your site by an expert instructor from our approved nationwide network. Where this is not suitable, all training can be delivered face to face.

Whichever delivery method you choose, courses meet the same high standards, backed by accreditation from AITT, a founder member of the Accrediting Bodies Association for Workplace Transport, so you can be assured of full compliance and peace of mind, every time.

Information on pricing can be found here and available courses include:

  • Rider Counterbalance Trucks – B1 up to 5000kg, B2 5001kg to 15000kg, B3 15001kg+
