Moffett Forklift Truck Hire — Pallet Delivery to Any Site
A Moffett is a forklift that rides on the back of the truck and comes off at the delivery point. The driver unloads it, uses it to place your freight exactly where you need it, then loads it back onto the truck and leaves. It's the solution for delivering palletised goods to sites that don't have their own forklift — especially sites that are rough, uneven, or hard to access.
When You Need a Moffett
A Moffett is the right choice when the delivery site has no forklift, the ground is uneven or unpaved — like a construction site or outdoor storage yard, you need pallets placed in a specific location on site rather than just dropped at the gate, access is tight and a standard forklift couldn't get in anyway, or you're delivering to a new build or development where nothing's set up yet.
If the site is flat with easy access and you just need pallets lowered to ground level, a tail lift truck is a simpler and cheaper option.
What a Moffett Can Handle
Palletised goods of all types, building materials, bagged products, timber, fencing, landscaping supplies, retail and wholesale stock.
The truck carries up to 10 tonnes of freight. The forklift lifts up to 1.5 tonnes per load.
