forklift trucks
Pallet-moving vehicles
Forklift trucks are industrial vehicles with a power-operated pronged platform that slides under pallets or heavy loads to lift and transport them.
The term is slightly redundant—a forklift is already a truck—but appears in formal and technical contexts: The warehouse ordered three new forklift trucks.
Most people just say forklift.
