In a warehouse environment, pallet jack trucks can contribute to productivity in invaluable ways. With the ability to move heavy pallets, a warehouse can efficiently store and control its inventory from the first moment the truck is unloaded to the last when the products are put out on the sales floor. With standard size fork trucks and long fork jack trucks, one person can move a tremendous amount of merchandise in a warehouse, creating a much more efficient operation. With the advent of electric pallet jack trucks, handling heavy materials in an industrial environment is now even easier.
