Moffett Deliveries

Moffett deliveries use a suitable vehicle-mounted forklift to support unloading at locations where a conventional forklift may not be available. The delivery plan must consider the load, forklift lifting capacity, site surface and safe working space around the vehicle.

Unloading where site equipment is unavailable

A vehicle-mounted forklift can be useful when the consignee has no suitable unloading machinery. This may suit building products or palletised materials delivered to certain commercial and construction locations.

Where a single customer needs exclusive use of a vehicle, machinery transport may be more appropriate.

Operational Details That Matter

This can be useful for palletised materials delivered to construction projects, trade sites and other premises with suitable ground conditions.

Vehicle-mounted forklift availability and suitability must be confirmed for each booking; not every site or consignment can be served this way.

For consignments requiring different loading access or equipment, consider pallet transport.

Who Uses Moffett Deliveries?

The delivery plan must consider the load, forklift lifting capacity, site surface and safe working space around the vehicle.

The best transport arrangement depends on the freight itself, how it can be handled and the operating hours of the sites involved.

Businesses with a different load size or delivery pattern may also benefit from tail lift deliveries.

Transport Advice Based on the Load

A quotation should be based on verified shipment information rather than assumptions about pallet count or vehicle capacity. If goods need special lifting, securing, restricted access or cross-border arrangements, these should be raised before a vehicle is confirmed.
