Throughout the Rocky Mountain Region, warehouse storage capacity is becoming more expensive and harder to find. Welch Equipment Company offers a range of narrow aisle reach lift trucks designed for storage facilities where capacity efficiency is essential. The wheel base of a reach truck is just like a counterbalanced lift truck, but the chassis is more compact, allowing a tighter turning radius and enhanced maneuverability for narrower aisles.
Reach trucks are special purpose trucks, meaning they are not useful for general warehouse activities. For example, general dock tasks like unloading and loading trucks or case picking aren’t the appropriate application for a reach forklift. They are also not the right equipment for racking configurations that don’t allow right angle stacking. However, when it comes to typical narrow aisle layouts, nothing beats a reach truck.
