What is a Telehandler?

A telehandler, or telescopic handler, is a lifting machine used to help transport materials and heavy equipment around reliably.

Using various attachments, they can lift a wide range of items and material choices to transport them to other locations.

As a more versatile vehicle, a telescopic handler can be more practical than using a forklift truck in a range of situations.

The common types of different attachments (forks, buckets, etc.) can all serve valuable roles within any industrial or storage-focused workplace.

The Base

A telehandler is effectively made up of three parts, with the base being the main body. Larger bases are stronger, but most possess 4-wheel drive and 4-wheel steering.

The Boom

The boom is the “neck” of the telehandler. These can also range in length, but they are designed to reach further than forklifts can while also squeezing into more awkward spaces or smaller areas.

The Tool

The end of the boom often holds a tool attachment, such as a fork or bucket.

These various attachments allow a single telescopic handler to serve a range of roles depending on the situation, requiring only a quick swap-out.

Telehandler Attachments

Telescopic handlers have a range of optional attachment choices, many of which are meant for specific roles or to work best in certain situations.

While some may seem very specialised, they are actually a core part of how you can use a telehandler well.

Choosing the right attachment for the job is important, and we can offer a range of attachment choices suitable for many different situations.

Carriage Attachments

Most telehandlers are equipped with a carriage attachment as a default option.

This is an effective way to move heavy pallets around, allowing the telehandler to be suitable for a huge range of transport requirements in warehouses or other storage facilities.

Standard Carriages

Regular carriage is a powerful choice of attachment for most scenarios.

Having a solid way to lift pallets of any size makes it very easy for the telescopic handler to move heavy loads, as well as makes it compatible with any existing pallet storage system you use.

This can make the telehandlers perfect for their primary job of acting as a transport tool.

They can reach a higher overall height than a forklift with a lot more precision, making it easy to transport materials to and from storage with minimal issues.

Tilting/Shifting Carriage

Telehandler machines can also get moving carriages, which use adjustable forks and carriage angles to provide even more precision when moving materials around.

These can be surprisingly powerful, acting like a versatile crane with a long reach and a lot of operator control.

If you need to transport materials to storage while also taking care to store them at specific angles or in a certain way, then these attachment options can be a great choice and something that makes a big difference to how versatile the telehandler can be.

Standard Carriage

Simple floating and adjustable carriages that work well at max lift height, max forward reach, and any other mode of telehandler operation.

Side-Shift Carriage

These can adjust each arm by a max of ten degrees, allowing for precision load placement at max lift height.

Side-Tilt Carriage

These tilt loads to either side, making corrections at max lift height easier while also leading to excellent loader performance.

Swing Carriage

A system designed to help place loading materials into confined spaces, especially when near the max weight limit.

Dual Fork Positioning Carriage

A manually-adjustable pair of forks that can correct at max lift height or ensure excellent loader performance in awkward spaces.

Fork Attachments

While a fork and carriage attachment may seem similar, they are slightly different in a lot of subtle ways.

These are the other type that many telescopic handler models come with by default since they are a perfectly versatile option that serves multiple roles.

Pallet Forks

Pallet forks serve as a reliable way to move pallet materials from place to place, working with most pallet designs and often having at least a few adjustable elements.

These are a great baseline option for general-purpose telehandler use in a variety of situations.

As a replacement for conventional forklifts, these attachments can allow telescopic handlers to move pallets much higher, further, and into more confined spaces.

This extra reach and flexibility can make the pallet forks surprisingly versatile in the right situations.

Cubing Forks

Cubing forks are used to store cubed items, whether those are cubes of compressed recycled metal or blocks of brick.

These can sometimes also be used to lift up crates or boxes of raw materials, depending on their size, which can make these an incredibly useful storage option.

Lumber Forks

Lumber forks are perfect for moving longer materials, whether those are pieces of lumber and wood or slabs of raw material.

These forks are ideal for any situation where the items being moved are not completely square or where you need a larger surface area for greater stability.

Bucket Attachments

Bucket attachments are ideal for clean-up work but can also be used to move around items in a loose fashion or pick up a lot of small items in bulk that do not have their own container.

This is most often used for cleaning up, spreading out substances like gravel, or trying to level spaces.

As such, you can expect to see bucket attachments in a lot of construction or renovation jobs, as well as landscaping and certain industrial niches.

Material Buckets

Material buckets are a standard bucket shape, similar to those on digger vehicles (but without the capability to dig).

These are perfect for transporting loose materials or cleaning up messes on the job site and can also be used to lift larger individual items if needed.

Grapple Buckets

Grapple buckets use a swinging-down case to secure individual items, ensuring that larger debris does not slip out of the bucket.

This can be ideal for cleaning up a job site, but also makes the bucket more practical for general purposes if no other attachments are available.

Other Attachments

One of the biggest advantages of our telehandler options is that they can be incredibly versatile, with different attachments making it easy to adapt each unit to a given situation quite quickly.

This naturally means that some attachments are created for more specialised roles or to turn the telehandler into a new type of tool altogether.

Work Platforms

Telescopic handlers can be equipped with work platforms, allowing them to lift a small platform to let other workers do their job at a high height in relative safety.

This attachment can make a telescopic handler into a multi-roll working platform option, suitable for anything from repairs to manual storage of important materials.

Truss Booms

The truss boom attachment can help set trusses and wall sections during construction, allowing the telescopic handler to serve as a construction-focused vehicle first and foremost.

While specialised, this attachment is still very useful in specific industries.

Lifting Hooks

Lifting hooks provide a general-purpose transport method for all kinds of cargo and materials.

Anything that can be safely hooked onto the attachment can be raised up by the telehandler, allowing for easier storage with a more versatile piece of equipment.

These hooks can be ideal for any industry since they are versatile and generally do not rely on any bespoke hook attachment points.

Telehandler Roles

Telehandlers are invaluable for a huge range of industries, providing the relatively rare ability to move heavy loads in very precise and controlled ways.

Using attachments and tool options, the same telehandler can be adapted to suit multiple purposes.

This means that a single telehandler could be suitable for a dozen different roles as long as you have the attachment that you need to make it possible.

Storage

Telescopic handlers are perfect for storing items.

The high max lift height and max forward reach mean that they can provide a full reach range, allowing for much easier storage of items on high shelves or racks.

Alongside that, they can be equipped with attachments that cover all transport jobs, from serving as an emergency crane to a long-reach forklift.

This full reach and high transport capability mean that even a basic telescopic handler can become an invaluable part of an industrial storage site.

Inspection

Powered access platforms provide the high lift height necessary to make the inspection of raised areas easy.

Thanks to the overall length of the boom on most of the latest machines (which translates to a higher overall height), these powered access platforms can be a vital part of identifying flaws in a structure or surface.

Construction

A telescopic handler can serve dozens of different uses when it comes to construction work.

Not only can a good telescopic handler provide the high max lift height to serve as a powered access platform, but the crane-like boom can transport vital equipment and materials.

In other cases, a telescopic handler may even be able to use its long reach to hold things in place while they are manually installed.

Demolition

Like construction, a telescopic handler can be used for demolition work in a lot of creative ways.

This could include clearing sites of raised equipment like wall ventilation or providing the high max forward reach needed to use demolition equipment on a space’s ceiling.

Maintenance

Using a telescopic handler as a powered access platform is a great way to maintain a space where a good lift height and overall full reach matter: for example, warehouses with a high overall height in the main workspace.

Since a telescopic handler can also double as a crane and transport method, you can also use the telehandler to move heavier maintenance equipment around.

Cleaning

Like maintenance, the good lift height and the long reach of a telehandler make it invaluable for cleaning a tall or open space.

Transport

A telehandler is a great alternative to a crane and a good way to move limited loads around sites quickly.

While it may not be as good as a cargo vehicle, a good-width telehandler can move heavy loads around sites or perform short-term relocations of high-weight materials.

Telehandler Hire Costs Acton

Hiring a telehandler will cost a varying amount depending on what you are actually looking for.

Not only does each individual telescopic handler model have its own specifications, but sometimes you also need to consider attachments and additional options that may bump up the price.

Average Costs

Expect to pay around £250 to £500 each week for a telehandler on average. However, there are a lot of factors that can go into the exact price you end up having to pay.

Size

The weight of the telescopic handler can play a part in its overall cost.

Overall Length

The overall length of your telescopic handler will impact the cost, especially for designs that can extend further.

Max Lift Height

The max lift height of the telehandler can sometimes be relevant to the price, especially with specialist models.

Maximum Loads and Weight Capacity

In a lot of cases, the weight capacity will also increase cost due to the bulkier and more durable telehandler models.

Attachments

If you are getting any attachments with the telescopic handler, they can add to the cost, too.

Delivery

The delivery costs depend on where you are getting your telehandler delivered to and how.

Refuelling

Usually, you will receive the telescopic handler already filled with fuel. However, you will often have to refill the telehandler before you return it.

Insurance

Taking out insurance (often a good idea with telescopic handlers) is naturally going to add more to your overall costs.

Overall Length of Hire

Consider the overall length of your hire period. Shorter leases tend to cost more per day but less overall.

Operation

If you do not have a licensed telescopic handler operator, then you will usually need to hire one, which obviously adds a new set of costs.

Benefits of a Telehandler

A telehandler in Acton is more than just a loading tool. It can serve a huge range of roles in almost any space where it is required.

However, as a whole, a telescopic handler can also bring a range of core benefits to the table that make it worth using in a wide range of situations. This includes:

Increased Overall Height

Telescopic handlers tend to boast a better lift height max compared to other tools.

Not only can they provide a greater overall height, but their max lift height tends to allow for ease of use even at full reach.

This means that a telescopic handler at max lift height can be used for loading, storage, transport, and countless other roles without that overall height causing any problems.

Better Overall Length

The high max lift height also translates to greater overall length, letting a telescopic handler work in very horizontal spaces too.

The lift height and length both provide a great range of options at full reach, making the telescopic handler even more practical for various purposes.

Stability at High Lift Height

Like many boom designs, a telehandler has the width and weight control to work on all sites.

Its solid weight and good width also mean that most models can work perfectly fine, even at max lift height.

This allows a max lift height telehandler to be used as a powered access platform comfortably or to transport heavy items without issue.

Max Weight Limits

Good max weight limits, along with the max lift height, provide excellent durability and practicality across all sites.

The higher max weight means that the telehandler can lift high-weight cargos and material, even at full reach length.

Max Forward Reach

Being able to bend the telehandler boom means that the high overall height and max lift height can be used to bolster the max forward reach.

With this, a single telehandler can provide enough max forward reach to cover a wide area at varying angles or even serve as a crane.

Telehandler Hire Duration Acton

Our telescopic handler options can be hired out for a range of durations.

We focus on a week-by-week basis first and foremost. However, in many cases, one week will not be enough.

Our experts can handle week-by-week telehandler hires or multi-week/monthly hires, depending on your needs.

Week Hire

A lot of our hire options are done week-by-week. For example, using £250 as a week average:

Of course, this is just an average based on previous week-long hires.

The week hire cost of a telescopic handler varies depending on the model.

Hire Periods

We can offer hire for a custom length of time or week-by-week hire as needed.

A week hire is not always enough. A single-week hire might become a multi-week hire or even a length that requires week-by-week renewal.

Talk with us to discuss week hire options or other hire length requirements.

Hiring Options

We can discuss the week-by-week hire with you, but our hiring options are also varied.

Length of hire might impact things like maintenance schedules. We work with our clients to resolve these issues, regardless of hire length.

Nationwide Telehandler Hire and Delivery

We provide delivery all across the UK including Acton, aiming to have our telehandlers delivered within the week whenever possible.

Contact us if you want to discuss delivery to specific sites or spaces. We will always do our best to provide same-week delivery.

Week-by-Week Hire

Our week-to-week hire options are all delivered just as quickly as longer-length hires.

We do not treat a one-week hire any less seriously than a long-length hire.

Max Hire Periods

A max week hire limit is not usually something we like to employ.

However, like any week-by-week hire, sometimes a max week limit is required.

We work with clients to ensure that they get the week-by-week hire they need, even if that means switching their first-week handler for another model in the following week.

What do you look for in a telehandler?

If you are interested in a telescopic handler, there are some factors that matter more than others.

Max Lift Height

Max lift height dictates how high the unit can lift something.

Max lift height can be impacted by weight and heavy loads. Over loading a telehandler can reduce practical max lift height.

However, knowing the total max lift height is important for knowing how high the unit can lift something as a whole.

Max Lift Height (as a platform)

As a platform, max lift height is important for user safety.

Managing max lift height with safe working heights is important to protect employees.

Max Forward Reach

Max forward reach dictates the total boom reach.

High max forward reach is good for open spaces where reach width is more important than lift height.

Depending on the design, max lift height and max forward reach influence one another.

Max Forward Reach (as a platform)

Max forward reach matters in a working platform.

Without good max forward reach, it becomes harder to reach raised surfaces from a distance.

However, again, max forward reach needs to be managed for safety reasons.

Too much max forward reach with no support can make a high lift height platform less stable.

Overall Height

The height of the unit itself matters in cramped spaces.

Excellent loader performance is hard to achieve if the boom is cramped into a tight area.

Overall Height (as a platform)

A high height puts platform users in danger of hitting the ceiling and being hurt.

Lower-headroom sites need to be prepared before the use of a platform like this.

Weight Limit

A high weight limit prevents the unit from breaking under excessive weight.

Weight Limit (as a platform)

Platforms need to be designed to handle at least one person’s weight.

They also need to be able to lift any equipment that a worker is bringing with them.

Lift Speed

The speed the unit reaches its max lift height matters.

High max lift speed makes it faster, but slow lift speed makes it safer.

Understanding the ideal lift speed for each situation is important.

Lift Speed (as a platform)

Remember that a trained operator can often control the lift speed to an artificial max for safety reasons.

This means that platforms can be kept at below-max speed for max user safety.

Width

Width (including adjustable max width) makes a difference.

Better width means more stability when trying to load or transport objects.

Good width can also prevent items from falling if the unit is bumped.

Width (as a platform)

A platform needs enough width to support at least one human and their gear.

Good width means more safety. High width can also translate to better carrying capacity.

Excellent Loader Performance

Achieving excellent loader performance is important, no matter the situation.

Better performance means greater safety and more desirable results.
