When it comes to hiring or investing in a forklift for your business, you need to make sure you’re making the right choice. With so many options and alternatives available on the market, it can be tough to know what to choose. Your forklift affects your productivity, project success, costs, employee morale and on-site capabilities, so be sure you’re making the right choice.

That’s where we come in. At All Terrain Services, we specialise in providing expert advice on all things forklifts. Learn more about the difference between rough terrain and standard forklifts and how to choose the right model for your business.

Operating Conditions

Before you commit to buying a forklift – whether a standard or rough terrain model – evaluate your circumstances and overall requirements. Start by considering where your forklift will be used. If it’s mainly for moving stock in your warehouse, a standard forklift will probably get the job done. If you’ll be transporting loads across rough surfaces – including outdoor conditions – a rough terrain forklift could work best. Rough terrain forklifts are equipped to ride over uneven ground utilising the traction of their tyres. Some can even drive over rocks, sand, wood and mud.

Your operating conditions will guide your decision making process, helping you narrow down the ideal forklift type, fuel and tyres required for smooth and successful operation.

Functionality Requirements

From heavy duty use on uneven construction sites to occasional use in warehouses and factories, your functionality requirements will determine your ideal forklift. Your forklift needs to be able to easily lift your average load size as well as any potential load sizes to provide you with value and efficiency.

If you’ll be using your forklift for hours on end each day, you need something proven and reliable to power your business. Be sure to do your research and chat with experienced forklift suppliers, as well as your own industry contacts, to gain an in-depth understanding of what could work best.

Be sure to also think about your business expansion plans to ensure that your forklift is able to support you as you grow.
