Forklifts

A fork lift is a vehicle used for lifting and moving heavy objects. A good example of how a forklift is used can be found at grocery warehouses. Large palettes of products are pulled from the shelves, and a forklift is used to move them to lift and load them onto the trucks for delivery.

What is the largest fork lift that will fit on a semi trailer'?

If it will fit on a truck AND fit through a street/highway any size will fit.

It all depends on what size forklift you want to put on one. City's and States usually have a height limit of 14' and a width limit of 8.6' to 9' without a special permit.

A box van is between 8' to 10' tall and about 8' wide on the "inside" and 28' to 53' long. Van trailers have a limited weight limit for the floor.

A flat bed is approximately 8'6" wide and 28' to 53' long. Trailers can have any where from 1 to 14+ axles so there is not really any limit.

Are forklifts marked with capacity?

Forklifts are rated according to how much weight they can lift, starting at 3,000 lbs and going up to 35,000 lbs and more. 3,000-, 5,000-, and 8,000-lb models make up the bulk of the market.

The size of your typical load will affect the capacity you need. Forklift capacity is usually based on a 24 inch "load center," meaning that the distance from the center of gravity to the sides of the load is 24".

The easiest way to think about this is that a forklift can only lift its maximum weight if the load is a four-foot cube. If your loads are unusually long or high, the forklift won't be able to safely lift as much. Knowing the typical dimensions and weight of your loads will allow you to work with the salesperson to determine the exact capacity you need.

Also consider how much variation there is in your loads. If you constantly produce identical pallets of products, you know exactly what capacity you need. However, in a more mixed environment, or one where the load size changes over time, you may want to buy a truck with more capacity than you need currently to make sure it gets the job done now and in the future.
