Why Use a Dock Lift?

Dock lifts are not inexpensive. They can be thousands of dollars, so the decision to put one into new or existing dock facilities requires research into the return on investment you may realize from your lift. In cases where you will be receiving many kinds of trucks (often, different in style and size) a dock lift can be ideal. It provides you with a way to allow your lifting equipment (forklift, pallet jack, walkie, etc.) to load or unload most trucks you will receive.

Dock lifts also enhance safety by allowing equipment to handle pallets & loads rather than people.

• Use a dock lift when you need to accommodate loading a variety of vehicles.
• Use a dock lift when there is no loading dock.
• Use a dock lift when the dock is too high or too low.
• Avoid injuries from lifting and hand loading products.
• Load trucks more efficiently.
