What is a Telehandler?

Telehandlers are long-reach lifting machines that you can mount several attachments to, such as buckets, serving as full-reach forklift alternatives that can reach heavier loads and materials further than forklifts.

Similar to powered access platforms, many telescopic handlers in Reading can offer variable forward reach and lift height.
