Delivery with mounted forklift

Mounted forklift. This system is often used for unloading at building sites or trade fairs.

A truck-mounted forklift is a forklift that can be fitted behind a truck, so that the truck has its own forklift to load or unload the cargo.   By sliding the forks of the forklift into the tubes fitted into the bodywork of the truck for this purpose, the forklift can lift itself up behind the truck. The forklift is then mounted behind the truck.

The Dutch word ‘Kooiaap’ (for mounted forklift) is an eponym, named after the inventor Hessel Kooi.
