Tow Tractor Blog

The tow tractor is a mini transportation train that can pull multiple trailers or carrier wagons throughout warehouses or airports. They provide the ideal transportation solution for delivering items such as pallets or raw material quickly over large distances.

Some of the toughest tow tractors are capable of handling extremely heavy loads. Available in a variety of different shapes and sizes, tow trucks have the ability to pull anything between 1 and 35 tonnes.

Businesses may need a tow tractor for a number of reasons such as the inefficiency of taking multiple trips when moving large quantities of products or to reduce warehouse traffic.

Industrial trucks account for a large number of injuries in warehouses, many of these are due to inadequate or lack of training. It is important that tow trucks are only be operated by employees who have received thorough training.
