Powered pallet trucks are electric low-lifting trucks designed for the horizontal transport of pallets or other materials. The operator steers using a handlebar mechanism.

Powered pallet trucks can be used in almost any industry and excel in shipping, receiving, storing, and picking applications. Due to the lack of a mast, they cannot be used for stacking but instead can be used in areas with low ceilings or other tight locations.

Powered pallet trucks are available with two operator positions; walkie and rider. Walkies are handled by an operator walking behind or in front of the truck. Some walkie models are equipped with platforms that allow the operator to ride shorter distances. Rider models are designed with a seat making it possible for the operator to ride the truck during operation.
