Forklift Truck Training

Driving forklift trucks requires specialised training and instruction from fully qualified trainers. This can help reduce the likelihood of accidents and improve the safety of both drivers and pedestrians. Professional forklift driver training can also reduce truck downtime, racking and product damage. To drive any forklift truck correctly it requires training in a classroom and a hands-on environment, thus ensuring things run as smoothly as possible once the candidates have passed successfully.

What is a Bendi forklift?

The difference between a Bendi forklift and a regular forklift is its design, having a “bend” in the middle between the forks and the body of the vehicle. A Bendi forklift truck, which can also be called a pivot steer forklift, comes with a lot of advantages compared to other types of forklifts, such as: being easy to operate and manoeuvre, good in tight spaces (similar to the reach forklift) and generally being a more comfortable ride than a lot of other forklifts.

I completed my car to C+E Fast Track with Alex at Theale and passed first time! I'm in no doubt this was down to expert instruction by Alex who was fantastic throughout my two week course. A professional, knowledgeable instructor who calmly guided me through the process from scratch to test. I would highly recommend 2 Start to anyone wanting to learn how to drive cat C or C+E and no doubt anything else. They have great equipment, facilities and instructors and will be the first choice for me if I look to add any more categories to my license and for CPC training.

Alex and Ryan trained me. Doing the car to C+E fast track course, came out with a pass! Cracking time and experience, appreciate all the hard work the team put in especially Alex and Ryan, couldn’t have asked for a better couple of lads to help me through. Thank you!

I had a really good time with Roy C from 2Start learning how to drive a rough terrain forklift. I thought I had quite a lot of driving experience but learning to drive the rough terrain forklift was one of the most challenging thing I have done for a while. Ray C is a great teacher and simplified the complex process of lifting and moving objects with the forklift by breaking down the various tasks contained in the test into manageable sections so that it was easier to learn. I highly recommend 2start Training and Roy C as a great instructor.

Thanks so much John for all your help getting me test ready! I felt so comfortable and confident on the day because of all your patience with me, as I learnt to drive the van, and be a better person. Sadly, I let you, and myself down on the day, when I miss read the speed limit on one section of road, that lost me the pass. However, it showed that I should have passed, as on my retest, 2 weeks later, it was a PASS, with ZERO minors!Thanks to Paul too! You really helped calm my nerves on my retest, and got me reacquainted with the van/JAAAAAAAG! 🤣Can’t wait to start our motorhome journey, as copilot!Couldn’t have done it without you all!ClaireThe Venture Crew

I had the pleasure of having Greg as my instructor. I also passed my HGV class 2 test first time & I believe it was massively helped by what Greg taught & explained to me. Greg was always patent with me & explained everything to a depth that I could really take in & remember. Anyone looking to learn & pass their HGV test, 100% recommend using 2 Start. Would put 1000 stars if I could. Thank you Greg!.
