Licensed forklift operator in a warehouse — placeholder photograph
Forklift driver hire

Hire licensed forklift drivers, verified before they arrive

Auckland and Waikato sites that cannot put an unverified operator on a machine. We check the F endorsement and OSH certificate before they leave, not at your gate.

On a real site

What this role covers on a real site

This is not “someone who has sat on a forklift”. On a working floor the operator moves inbound pallets, feeds a line, or picks from height on a reach truck. The machine type matters. A counterbalance ticket is not a reach ticket. An order picker is a different job again.

We ask which machines, which attachments, indoor or yard, and whether the site uses a WMS scan at every move. If you only need a storeperson who can jump on a pallet jack, that is the warehouse staff page — do not book a licensed operator for that.

Screening

What we screen and verify

The licence is the lead, not a footnote. If the F endorsement is expired or the photo does not match, they stay off the roster.

  • Current forklift licence with F endorsement
  • OSH certificate as the site requires
  • Machine types: counterbalance, reach, order picker — named in the brief
  • Work rights and a work history check
  • Site rules: high-vis, steel caps, induction length

Commercial

Typical rates, shifts and lead time

Forklift charge-outs sit above general warehouse because the ticket and the risk sit higher. Nights, weekends and coolstore loadings move the number again. We quote the job, not a laminated rate card.

Lead time: same-day in Auckland and Hamilton when we have a cleared operator and a complete brief. A reach-truck night shift on a site we have not inducted takes longer than a counterbalance day shift on a known DC.

How a charge-out is built, without inventing a brochure number, is on labour hire rates.

Where

Industries and locations

Most demand is warehousing, 3PL and distribution — that is why this page links to warehousing & logistics, not a food essay. Food plants still book forklift cover; hygiene rules then sit in the brief.

Also used beside production staff when a line needs both operators and a licensed driver.
