forklift
Pallet-moving vehicle
A forklift is a small industrial vehicle with two horizontal prongs at the front that slide under pallets or heavy loads to lift and move them.
Forklifts are essential equipment in warehouses, shipping yards, and construction sites where materials need to be stacked or transported short distances.
The operator typically sits in a cab and controls both the vehicle's movement and the raising and lowering of the fork mechanism.
We need a forklift to unload this shipment.
