Forklift drivers FAQs

Good to know.

What forklift drivers do you supply?

Counterbalance, reach, VNA, pivot steer and side loader drivers, plus powered pallet truck and LLOP operators.

Do you check forklift licences?

Yes. We check the certificate, the truck types it covers and its dates before anyone does a shift on a truck.

Can you supply forklift drivers at short notice?

Often within 24 to 72 hours. A day’s notice helps, but send the request anyway.

Can temporary FLT drivers go permanent?

Yes. Keep the drivers you want through temp to perm. We match your pay rate so they move across with no loss of earnings.

I have a forklift licence. Can you find me work?

Yes. Register once with your certificate details and we will match you to FLT roles as they come in.
