About This Course
Our Reach Truck Training course prepares operators to work safely with reach trucks in warehouse and racking environments. Reach trucks are designed for narrow aisles and high-level storage, so operators need precise control and a clear understanding of load stability at height.
The course follows the RTITB structure, covering theory, pre-use checks and practical skills, and finishes with a formal assessment. Training can take place on-site, in your own racking and aisles.
