Load Moving Equipment

Using Load Moving Equipment to Increase Productivity

Using load moving equipment in the workplace can not only reduce physical effort and strain but increase productivity due to the increased speed at which loads can be moved around.

Lifting Gear Direct supplies a full range of load moving equipment for all your material handling needs. Our range of sturdy equipment including quality products designed especially for moving large and heavy loads. We are proud to stock the very best products from leading brands in the industry.

Whatever the load and lifting capacity you are looking for, we have a model that will safely and effectively handle your materials up to 100 tonnes. Our range of loading & moving equipment includes pallet trucks, these are probable the most widely used piece of load moving equipment and we can supply manual and electric models  and trucks with varying sized forks. In fact we have a pallet truck to suit the majority of load moving operations; we also supply load moving skates designed specifically for lightweight, heavy duty and extra heavy duty loads. Models for heavier loads include special turntables with large bearings to ensure ease of movement. We also supple load moving skates with tracks instead of wheels, also known as caterpillar skates.

We can also supply an excellent range of scissor lift tables in both manual and electric formats; these are perfect for the regular movement of loads throughout warehouses, factories and production plants.

Pallet truck options

Palletised goods can be tricky to manoeuvre, especially if you want to avoid using heavy equipment due to the amount of space available, or for simple reasons of practicality. With a pallet truck to hand you will have ample opportunity to shift cargo efficiently and our line up includes models from big brands including Pfaff.

There are plenty of payload capacities found throughout this range, with some light duty pallet trucks providing up to 300kg of WLL, while others can offer more than 3 tonnes of capacity to play with.

Manually handled pallet trucks are the most affordable on our site but as mentioned earlier you can find higher end devices that provide powered operation to take the strain out of shifting larger loads.

Scissor lift table line up

Combining manoeuvrability with strength, our scissor lift tables make sense in various commercial contexts, especially when manufacturing workloads need to be managed in a flexible, productive way.

Once again you need to look carefully at the capacity of the scissor lift table you are considering before you order, since some models offer a few hundred kilos of WLL while others have several tonnes. Brands like Ace are available in this category, so the quality is second to none. We import and supply equipment from international sellers to make sure that customers in the UK have the widest array of choice, as well as the best prices at their disposal.

Load moving skates selection

Combining the convenience of a contemporary design with the reliability of a tried and tested load lifting mechanism, our load moving skates can help out whatever your material handling needs.

No two products in this line up are identical in terms of specs or capabilities, so look out for bonus features such as stabilisers, load rotation plates, different roller materials and of course varied capacities.

Brands such as Steerman and Raptor are amongst those you will find in our load moving skates category. We provide as much information as possible on each product page, so you can delve into specific performance capabilities and limitations by clicking through.


Alternative material handling solutions

Lifting Gear Direct has a whole host of products from brands big and small, spanning several different categories, of which material handling is just one.

If you have varied lifting duties to complete, our crane and gantry systems can be a good investment, for example. If you just need some accessories to add to your current assembly, we sell everything from eye bolts to gin wheels right here.

LOAD MOVING EQUIPMENT FAQ'S


What are the main types of load moving equipment?

Pallet trucks, load moving skates, scissor lift tables and furniture movers are probably the most popular types of load moving equipment. You can also find pallet stackers, crane forks, static lift platforms and trucks with incorporated scales at Lifting Gear Direct.

What is the best way to move large furniture & appliances?

There are a few different ways to aid in the moving of heavy cabinet type items. Load moving skates are ideal and simply slide under the heavy load. For larger cabinets a furniture mover may be a better option as they offer more load stability whilst in motion. You can get manual or hydraulic furniture movers, both are effective movers and pretty simple to use although will take up more space in storage than skates.

What are the best types of Pallet handling equipment?

Pallet trucks are probably the easiest and most popular method for handling palletised loads. The pallet, complete with load can be raised slightly off the ground so it can be easily moved to the required location. Pallet stackers are also great for moving pallets around, however they can also lift them much higher, this enables the palletised load to be stacked with relative ease.

What is the difference between a scissor lift table and a hydraulic lift platform?

A scissor lift table uses a hydraulic ram to raise and lower the table top, they incorporate castors so that the table and its contents can be moved around easily; ideal for piece work and production lines. A hydraulic lift platform does not have wheels. It is a static table that is great for lifting objects to a more suitable height for working on, repairs and maintenance. They are also commonly used in machine feeding areas.
