Ensuring Your Equipment Arrives Securely & On Time
Why Safe Forklift Transport Matters
Transporting heavy industrial equipment like forklifts requires expert handling, the right vehicles, and compliance with transport regulations. Whether relocating a forklift within Sydney or moving it interstate, professional forklift transport services ensure your machinery arrives safely and without damage.
At Select Tilt Tray Group (STTG), we specialise in safe forklift transport Sydney businesses trust, providing efficient, cost-effective, and fully insured solutions.
When Do You Need Professional Forklift Transport?
Forklifts are heavy, complex machines that cannot be driven on public roads. You may need professional transport services if:
✔️ Relocating a forklift to a new site
✔️ Transporting forklifts for repairs or maintenance
✔️ Delivering new or used forklifts to a customer
✔️ Moving forklifts between warehouses, worksites, or interstate
Unlike general towing, forklift transport requires specialised equipment to secure and move the unit safely.
Why Professional Forklift Transport is Essential
-
Expert Handling & Safety Compliance
Not all forklifts are the same. Smaller forklifts may be easier to transport, but larger models with high masts or heavy counterweights require specialist tilt trays or low loaders.
Using a licensed forklift transport provider like STTG ensures:
- Proper securing techniques to prevent shifting or tipping
- Compliance with road safety laws (National Heavy Vehicle Regulations – NHVR)
- Minimised risk of damage to your forklift & property

Specialised Transport Vehicles for Different Forklifts
Transporting forklifts is not as simple as loading them onto a truck. Different forklifts require different transport solutions, including:
- Counterbalance forklifts – Require secure strapping and tilt tray transport
- High-mast forklifts – Need a low-loader trailer for clearance
- Electric forklifts – Require safe battery handling to prevent leaks or damage
At STTG, we use purpose-built transport solutions for each forklift type, ensuring maximum safety and efficiency.

Cost-Effective & Time-Saving
Attempting to move a forklift without professional equipment can cause costly damage or result in compliance fines. Hiring a reliable forklift transport Sydney service means:
✔️ Minimising downtime – Faster and more efficient transport
✔️ Preventing unexpected costs – No damage or compliance issues

Forklifts come in many different shapes and sizes, and each one presents its own set of challenges when it comes to transport. Smaller forklifts may be easy to move, but larger, heavier units with high masts require special equipment and careful handling. Without the right tools and expertise, transporting forklifts can result in damage to the equipment or even pose safety risks.
