The Versatility And Value Of The Pallet Jack
The forklift revolutionized the movement and storage of freight by enabling it to be moved from different heights. This enabled ships, freight trains, and trucks to be loaded and unloaded without an excessive amount of manual labor, and allowed the freight to be stored vertically, which greatly increased storage space.
However, its humbler cousin, the pallet jack, moves tons of freight each day, into spaces where forklifts cannot go, and with an ease of use that requires no certification or training.
