Video shows cost savings of Toyota hand pallet trucks

Toyota has introduced a new video to help hand pallet truck purchasers to understand the lifetime costs of owning a hand pallet truck.

The video, which is available on YouTube, illustrates the commercial benefits of the BT Lifter hand pallet truck, which has been found to offer the lowest cost of ownership over the lifetime of the truck.

Mark Peters, Hand Pallet Truck Product Manager Toyota Material Handling UK said: “We are aware that the initial investment in a BT Lifter hand pallet truck is slightly higher than other makes but, due to the quality of the components and Toyota Production System build process, the product’s life is increased by up to five times. This reduces potential downtime when replacements are needed. Our new video demonstrates the benefits of investing more at the beginning in order to save more throughout the life of the truck.”

The BT Lifter LHM230 standard hand pallet truck has a lifetime (99-year) functional guarantee on the fork frame. A specific pump cycle test demonstrates BT Lifters will last up to five times longer than a standard hand pallet truck.

Examples of the BT Lifter range including the LHM230 and other models will be on the Toyota stand (20F70) at IMHX 2013 (19-22 March, Birmingham NEC).
