Tiny but mighty: A powerful forklift with a compact design

By Anna Lockhart.  

Don’t judge this book by its cover! The Tow-A-Lift packs a powerful punch considering its small design. But the capability to lift heavy materials with ease is worth a second look!  

Recently, the Equipter team took their Tow-A-Lift machinery, an impressive towable forklift designed for easy maneuverability and user-friendliness, to the Outdoor Living Mastery show. Attendees at the opportunity to watch a live demonstration of the Tow-A-Lift in action, and some even gave the machine a spin on their own!  

Easy to operate, the Tow-A-Lift is a must-have piece of equipment on the jobsite for any landscaping and hardscaping professional. With its simple and approachable yet hardy design, the Tow-A-Lift can get the job done with precision and is ready to go to the next site by simply hitching it to a pickup truck.  

Attendees at the Outdoor Living Mastery show were amazed at how the machinery operated, getting the forklift to do their bidding with the ease of a hand-held control panel. One participant shared, “It’s a very versatile machine that I feel has plenty of use in the hardscaping industry. It can lift a pallet of pavers, bringing it out to you and to your truck. I could definitely see us owning one of these in the near future.”  

“My favorite feature is that it’s like a remote control, you don’t have to sit inside it,” another attendee shared excitedly. During the demonstration, attendees were able to try their hand at operating the machine, many amazed at how effective and smooth the handheld remote was at dictating the machine’s movements. With a lift arm that can extend out to three feet and the lift capacity of around 3,500 pounds when extended, the Tow-A-Lift is a testament to Equipter’s engineering team’s genius.  

One event attendee was shocked at how well the machine moved, with little expertise needed to get it to do so. She shared, “I thought the Tow-A-Lift was easy to navigate, the controls easy to learn and use. This is a compact piece of equipment that would be great for anyone looking for something compact and towable for their jobsites.”
