Electric-Powered Forklift Services

Electric forklift and robo dolly moving for finished, food-grade and air-quality-sensitive plants. With no emissions, low noise and up to 80,000 lbs. of electric capacity, we work indoors where propane cannot.

Moving a machine should not fill the plant with exhaust. Some plants simply cannot take a combustion forklift inside. Electric power lets us move and place machinery inside without the emissions, the fumes or the noise.

The Problem

Some Facilities Cannot Take a Propane Forklift Inside

Food and beverage plants, air-quality-sensitive lines, occupied facilities and low-noise environments often rule out combustion forklifts. Electric units let us do the same machine moving and material handling inside, cleanly and quietly.

Where It Fits

Where Electric Forklifts Fit

Electric forklifts are how we move and place machinery inside finished and sensitive facilities, as part of a fleet that scales up when the pick gets heavier.

  • Indoor and Finished SpacesThere is no exhaust, so we work inside operating and finished facilities without venting or shutting a line down.
  • Food-Grade and Air-Quality-SensitiveClean and low-emission for food and beverage plants and air-quality-controlled environments.
  • Low-Noise EnvironmentsQuieter than combustion units, for occupied plants and noise-sensitive work.
  • Capacity That ScalesElectric up to 80,000 lbs. on our robo dollies. Forklift capacity up to 35,000 lbs.

Safety

Everything Considered. Everyone Ready.

The best moves are the ones where every risk is planned out and every crew knows the job before anyone touches your machine.

  • Signed Off Before We StartA job hazard assessment and a toolbox talk before anyone touches the machine.
  • Locked Out and Zoned OffLockout and tagout coordinated with your plant, with exclusion zones and signage around the work.
  • A Lift Plan, Not a GuessLoad weight, centre of gravity and the path of travel walked first, based on the agreed upon plan.
  • Gear Tested and TaggedSlings, shackles and rigging hardware inspected, tested and tagged.
  • Tracked on the RoadSamsara e-logs and dashcams on every truck, with driver coaching and NSC Standard 10 cargo securement.
  • Everyone Gets Home SafelyCertified hoisting operators, WSIB in good standing, and a safety record we hand to your EHS team.

How It Works

How an Electric Move Runs

  1. Assess the Space and the Machine

    We confirm the weight, the access and your clean, air-quality or noise requirements before we pick a unit.

  2. Scope and Quote

    Scoped before we price it, so the quote is the invoice, with no surprise change orders.

  3. Move With the Right Unit

    Electric forklifts matched to the load, with spotters and floor protection through the run.

  4. Place and Level

    Positioned on the mark and handed to our Millwrights to level and align, ready for commissioning.

Why ReadyForce

Why Plants Ask for Electric

  • Clean and Quiet Indoors

    No emissions and low noise mean a machine moves inside a live plant and stays within GMP standards.

  • Up to 80,000 lbs. electric

    Forklifts up to 35,000 lbs. and robo dollies up to 80,000 lbs. electric, real capacity for moving industrial machinery indoors.

  • Part of a Full Fleet

    When the pick outgrows electric, we scale to heavier forklifts and gantry systems on the same job.

  • One Call With Heavy Moving

    The same crews handle the rig, the move and the placement, and leave it ready to commission.

One Call for the Whole Scope

The Move Rarely Stops There

A machine set by forklift still has to be levelled, anchored and aligned, tied into mechanical and running on the floor. It is one ReadyForce call, and one crew that already works together, for the whole scope.
