Reach Truck for Sale in Australia

Our Reach Truck Range

Stand-on Reach Truck

Capacity: 1.0 to 2.25 t
Lift height: up to 13 m
Best for: tight aisles, frequent U-turns, short repetitive pallet moves, and high pick rates
Key checks: minimum aisle width for the U-turn and right-angle stack, residual capacity at your top lift height, and shift length against stand-on comfort.

Sit-down Reach Truck

Capacity: 1.2 to 2.5 t
Lift height: up to 13 m
Best for: longer continuous travel, longer shifts, heavier pallets, more open layouts, and occasional ramp or outdoor use
Key checks: turning radius for your tightest aisle, capacity margin above your daily maximum load, and gradeability against your steepest ramp.

Selection guide to the right reach truck

Aisle width

Reach trucks are chosen mainly by the aisle they have to work in. For your tightest aisle, confirm three things: the U-turn, the 90-degree entry, and the right-angle stack. Pick the model that passes all three. A stand-on model has a more compact body and turns in tighter aisles, while a sit-down model needs a little more room but travels more stably. For exact figures, see our reach truck selection guideline.

Lift height and capacity margin

Residual capacity drops as the mast extends, so plan a margin rather than running at the rated limit. For higher-level storage, allow around 10% to 15% above your rated load, and choose a model with roughly 15% extra capacity over your daily maximum load.

Ground slope

Although the range comes with a safety slope brake, keep real-world gradients around 1% to 2% below the truck's rated gradeability. For frequent ramps or any outdoor travel, a sit-down model gives stronger travel stability.

Reach truck scenario picks

Aisles 3.1 to 3.3 m, pallets 800 to 1,000 kg, racking 4 to 5 m
→ Choose a 3-wheel stand-on model for fast turning and compact handling in tight layouts.

Aisles 3.4 to 3.6 m, pallets 1.2 to 1.5 t, lift heights 5.5 to 6.5 m
→ Choose a 4-wheel sit-down model for heavier pallets and stable work at height.

More than 30% outdoor use, uneven surfaces, ramps of 10% to 12%
→ Choose a 4-wheel sit-down model for mixed surfaces and stronger travel stability.

Pure indoor picking, tight aisles, frequent U-turns
→ Choose a 3-wheel stand-on model for fast direction changes and efficient indoor movement.
