Counterbalance forklift training for a safer and more efficient operator

If you or your team aren’t trained for forklift use, then safety becomes an issue. Downtime can increase too because of inefficiency. And there are also regulations that you need to be compliant with. Forkwise Northern in Wakefield can provide the training that you and your team need.

Safety is always the highest priority

Not only to mitigate the risk of accident, but also to reduce the likelihood of equipment damage and potential financial losses for you or your organisation. With our focus on best practice, efficiency in forklift operation is the by-product – meaning more productivity against operation time. All training is carried out by our MD – Derek Berry – who has trained operators both at beginner and advanced level for the last 43 years. You’re in the right hands with Forkwise Northern.

What do others think?

Trained on counterbalance & scissor lift. Trained with Derek Berry, excellent training methods, really informative courses. Really nice guy, hope to do more courses in October.
