Why Reach Trucks? High-Rise Storage Essential

Reach trucks are the backbone of modern high-rise warehousing. With extending mast design, ability to lift pallets to 12+ meters, and compact footprint for narrow aisles, reach trucks maximize vertical storage space while minimizing warehouse footprint.

Reach Truck Advantages:
β€’ High lift height: up to 13 meters
β€’ Extending forks: reach into racks
β€’ Narrow aisle operation: 2.4-3.0 meters
β€’ Electric operation: indoor friendly
β€’ Precision handling: accurate placement

"Johor Bahru 3PL warehouse. 2020: 1,000 sqm, ground-level storage only. 400 pallets. Running out of space. Clients increasing storage needs. Options: rent additional 500 sqm (RM2,000 monthly) or build high-rise racking with reach trucks. Chose high-rise. Bought 2 reach trucks (RM220,000). Financed with Ing Heng (0% down). Monthly RM3,000. Used preserved RM44,000 for racking (10-meter high). Result: warehouse capacity increased to 1,200 pallets (3x) in same footprint. Additional 800 pallets rented at RM12 monthly = RM9,600 additional revenue. Monthly financing RM3,000. Net profit RM6,600. Reach trucks paid in 33 months. Avoided RM2,000 monthly rental for additional space. High-rise racking with reach trucks most cost-effective expansion. 2022: added 2 more reach trucks. Fleet: 4 reach trucks. Capacity 2,400 pallets. Monthly revenue RM28,800+. 2023: built mezzanine for additional floor-level storage. 2024: automated storage system using reach truck compatible AGVs.
