Trucks for retail and wholesale
Pallet trucks, stackers and compact forklifts, from one store to a fleet.
The price is on every truck we have in stock.
Which EP truck for which store job
From the delivery bay to the back store, the pick aisles and the yard. Pick a job to see where it happens and the truck we'd usually suggest, with the price if we have one in stock.
Handling problems in shops and wholesale
Most stores don't need a big forklift. They need the right small trucks, kept running.
Delivery bottlenecks
Lorries waiting at the bay cost money and block the yard.
Our answer: stand-on pallet trucks and compact forklifts that clear a trailer quickly.
Tight back stores
Back stores are packed, with narrow aisles and low ceilings.
Our answer: walk-behind stackers and 3-wheel forklifts that turn in tight spaces.
Customers nearby
Shop floors and cash and carries have customers walking around.
Our answer: quiet electric trucks, and keeping trucks and customers apart where you can.
Lots of small orders
Wholesalers pick case after case for every order.
Our answer: low-level and vertical order pickers matched to your pick faces.
Manual pallet trucks
Pulling heavy pallets by hand tires staff and strains backs.
Our answer: lithium electric pallet trucks that are light and simple to use.
No engineers of your own
When a truck breaks, stock stops moving. Our own engineers service and repair EP trucks across all 32 counties, and contract hire puts it all into one weekly price. A site survey is free for five or more trucks.

Small trucks, big difference
Swapping manual pallet trucks for electric ones is one of the quickest wins in a busy store. Staff move more stock with less effort. Before you choose, we check three things with you.
- Your palletsEvery supplier's pallets differ, so we match fork length and width to the ones you receive.
- Your spaceAisle widths, door heights and how high you stack in the back store.
- Your chargingLithium tops up on breaks with no battery watering, and several of our pallet trucks and stackers charge from a normal socket.
Quick to charge, easy to use
From a single pallet truck for a shop to order pickers and forklifts for a wholesale warehouse, north and south.

Safety and inspections for stores
Even a small pallet truck needs looking after, and every forklift needs regular thorough examinations.
Republic of Ireland
Forklifts need a thorough examination at least every 12 months, or every 6 months if used to lift people (S.I. 299/2007). Our engineers carry out and certify these GA1 examinations.
Northern Ireland
LOLER (NI) 1999 sets the same intervals. Our Portadown engineers carry out LOLER examinations across all six counties.
People and trucks
Keep trucks and customers apart where you can, with set routes and times for deliveries on the shop floor.
Manual handling
Electric pallet trucks cut the pushing and pulling that strains backs in stores.

Retail and wholesale questions
Anything else, call us or see the FAQs page.
What's the best pallet truck for a shop?
For most shops, a lithium-ion walk-behind pallet truck. The EP EPL185 lifts 1,800 kg with stabilising wheels, and the smaller F4 lifts 1,500 kg and is light enough for the shop floor. We match the forks to the pallets you receive. See our electric pallet trucks.
Do I need a forklift or a stacker for my back store?
If you're stacking pallets up to about 3 m in a small store, a walk-behind stacker like the EP DS3 is usually enough and costs far less than a forklift. Higher racking or yard work needs a forklift or reach truck.
Can you supply equipment for several stores?
Yes. We supply and service fleets across several sites in Ireland and Northern Ireland. On contract hire, the whole fleet is on one weekly price.
Do staff need training to use an electric pallet truck?
Operators must be trained and competent for the equipment they use. We do an operator handover with every delivery. For formal certified training, use an accredited trainer.
Can you automate our wholesale warehouse?
Often, yes. EP automated pallet trucks take over repeat moves such as goods in to storage, or finished orders to dispatch. See them working in our Navan demo warehouse, or read about EP automation.
Can we hire instead of buying?
Yes. Forklift hire runs on 12-month contracts at a fixed weekly price, with servicing, repairs and thorough examinations included. Pallet trucks are hired as part of a fleet. We don't do short-term hire.
Do you do free site surveys?
Yes, if you run five or more trucks. We check aisles, doors, floors and loads, and recommend the right trucks in writing, with no charge and no obligation. For smaller sites, tell us what you move and we'll advise.
