A sideloader or side loader is distinguished from other loaders by its ability to lift and transport goods sideways. Ideal for carrying longer loads (e.g. wood or long pipes).
They have excellent stability because the centre of gravity is in the middle of the machine and the weight of the goods is evenly distributed on the sides of the loader. This reduces the likelihood of the goods or the loader tipping over or damaging anything.
The sideloader can be used in confined spaces where other forklifts cannot fit, allowing for more efficient use of storage space and greater efficiency. They are also safer, as transporting goods sideways allows warehouse staff to better control the direction of the goods.
