Forklift Fleet Expansion
Inspect Your Warehouse
The first step in any fleet expansion is matching your equipment to the changing needs of your warehouse. Do you need to stack higher? Expanding up is often an option, but you need the industrial equipment to match the task. Or is all of your product being moved along the ground? Maybe you need to increase your moving speed. These are vital questions when looking into the right forklift. Make sure you also take a look at your racking and consider what equipment can enter where needed, helping you in hard-to-reach places. Lastly, make sure you take a look at your aisle widths. Forklifts come in all different sizes and making sure it has enough room to operate is extremely important. Make sure you have a good understanding of calculating forklift aisle width minimums to optimize your warehouse space.
Know Your Product
When expanding into new product lines or supporting production needs more than ever before, you must understand your new requirements to continue to ensure growth in all areas of your business. Making sure you have a forklift with enough capacity and features to handle your products is crucial. Toyota has forklifts of every size, from hand pallet jacks to loaded container handlers. Our Find a Forklift tool can help you determine the right forklift for your lifting capacity and load center.
Understand Operator Needs
Acquiring a forklift is a big commitment. As a manager, your team will be using this machine almost every day. As an operator, this is the tool that will hopefully allow you to do your job safely and with maximum efficiency. This is why you will need to make sure you look at all the options and accessories that come with the forklift.
