For simple, fast and effective front-loading, our range of counterbalance forklift trucks are the ideal solution. Heavily weighted at the rear of the vehicle, outward-facing forks serve to cradle the weight of any goods and offset this against the weight of the rear vehicle effectively creating a balance. We have a range of counterbalance forklifts for sale ranging from 1 to 2 tonnes.
Electrically powered counterbalance forklifts are not only easy to manage, but are also energy efficient, cost-effective to operate and produce zero emissions. Bristol Forklifts stocks the latest in electric forklift technology with the most responsive and smooth-handling models on the market. Our electric forklifts operate with a high degree of precision allowing you to carry out a range of tasks accurately and quickly without making excessive noise.
Diesel and LPG fuelled vehicles are often used for outside settings that such as stockyards or lumber yards. Our fine selection of both diesel and LPG engine counterbalance forklifts are capable of extensive use in rugged environments and come fitted with emission reduction technology. LPG and diesel forklifts are particularly suitable for dirty harsh environments including tasks like unloading vehicles, moving goods and container unloading.

No matter how much pallet led inventory you are dealing with, the solid and dependable pad pallet truck can be used to move stacks of pallets and even pick orders at low level. Frontward facing forks can be slide under the base of a pallet and can be raised to lift the pallet and move it. Few vendors can provide such a varied range of pallet trucks in Bristol and the wider Avon area which is why we have seen 97% repeat business amongst our clients.
We stock mini pallet trucks, electric pallet trucks and rough terrain pallet trucks. Contact us today for more information.
Reach trucks are the perfect solution for lifting and stacking items within high level environments where free space is perhaps limited. The truck’s lifting forks are fitted to a reach mechanism which extends horizontally to reach, raise and lift the pallet. The height at which the reacher operates is adjustable and can extend vertically to access even the highest of shelves. Reach trucks are suited to warehouses with narrow aisles and high shelves – they can retrieve weighty items at height whilst also taking up very little room.
Our inventory boasts the comprehensive selection of reach trucks in Bristol so no matter the weight of the load, Bristol Forklifts can offer the best machines from Mitsubishi.
Order pickers allow warehouse staff to physically retrieve items that are stacked at height. Pickers consist of a cab element from which the operator controls the height extension. The chassis of the truck is stabilised by support legs whilst the cab extends upwards thus giving the operator the ability to retrieve stacked items. Perfectly suited for fulfilling customer orders, our pickers offer a solution to tightly packed isles and distribution centres.
At Bristol Forklifts, we have a selection of pickers capable of reaching a range of different heights.
Our stacker range comes in a variety of lift capacities and height ranges. Stacker trucks are stabilised with straddle legs which when fitted with wheels provide maneuverability and a strong centre of gravity. When items are loaded onto the fork, the straddle legs will support the weight therefore negating the requirement for a counterweight. Stackers often weigh a lot less which makes them easier to handle and subject to less physical stress. We offer a range of both manual and electric stackers to suit all requirements.

The warehouse environment is critical to the long term success of any business. Expectations have risen dramatically in recent years and customer satisfaction routinely hangs on whether deliveries are made on time. All businesses and organisations are different. The warehouses and packing facilities of most businesses vary greatly in terms of space, shelving, stacking height and weight of inventory etc so there is never a “one size fits all” when it comes to internal handling.
