What is Side Loader Lift Training?
Side Loader Lift Training is designed for individuals who operate or plan to operate side loading forklifts within industrial, warehouse and timber handling environments. Side loader trucks are specially designed to carry long and bulky loads such as timber, piping, metal and sheet materials, making correct operation essential for workplace safety and efficiency.
This course teaches the skills needed to manoeuvre a side loader safely, manage long loads, carry out vehicle checks, understand stability principles and follow best practice when working in confined or busy environments. It is suitable for new operators, experienced operators seeking formal certification and businesses that rely on side loader equipment for daily operations.

"It is hard to choose a favourite part as I enjoyed so much, but getting on the forklift was a real highlight. The steering took time to learn, but the trainers were brilliant, supportive and made it fun. I would happily take more courses with them."
