Order Picking Trucks / Pallet Lift Trucks (Pedestrian & Rider profiles)
Lantra-certified
Safe operation of order picking trucks and pedestrian or rider pallet trucks, with training routes to match the machine and operator experience.
Order picking trucks and pallet lift trucks are among the most widely used machines in warehouse and logistics environments, yet their safe operation demands proper training and sound judgement. At DJW Training, we deliver Lantra-standard instruction covering both pedestrian and rider profiles, giving operators the knowledge and practical skills they need to work safely and efficiently.
Course length is tailored to the machine type and the individual operator's level of experience, running from a single day for those with relevant prior experience through to a full five-day programme for complete beginners. This flexible approach means training is always appropriate, never a one-size-fits-all solution.
