Handling gear that earns its bay

Yard and warehouse equipment does not get the attention a dozer does, until it stops and the loading bay backs up. We supply, service and stock parts for the full Shantui handling range, from a 3-tonne counterbalance truck to a 16-tonne container handler.

Built for dust, ramps and long shifts

South African yards are rarely flat, clean warehouses. Our handling equipment is specified for gravel surfaces, ramp gradients and outdoor duty cycles.

  • Heavy-duty air cleaning. Two-stage pre-cleaners for dusty yards and quarry weighbridges.
  • Wide-view masts. Better forward visibility, which is a safety requirement, not a nicety.
  • Solid or pneumatic tyres. Matched to your surface, with rough-terrain options for site work.
  • Full attachment range. Side shifts, fork positioners, rotators, jibs and drum clamps.
  • OHS-compliant. Load charts, seat-belt interlocks, reversing alarms and blue-spot lighting.

Compliance is part of the deal

Every machine is delivered with a valid load-test certificate, an OHS-compliant load chart and an operator induction. We can also run your annual load testing and colour-coding programme across the whole fleet, whatever brand it is.

Side shift

Line up a pallet without repositioning the truck. The single best productivity attachment there is.

Rotators & clamps

Drum handling, bale clamps and carton clamps for specialised handling duty.

Full maintenance rental

Fixed monthly rate including all servicing, tyres and breakdown cover. Off balance sheet, predictable.

Electric options

Battery-electric counterbalance trucks for indoor and emission-sensitive operations.

Standby units

Contract customers get priority access to standby machines during a major repair.

Buy, rent or full maintenance lease

Tell us your shift pattern and the heaviest thing you lift. We will quote all three options side by side so you can compare the real monthly cost.
