Professional Moffett (Lorry-Mounted Forklift) Training Across Lancashire

At EOD Training, we provide professional Moffett truck training across Burnley, Preston, Chorley, Leyland, Penwortham, Leyland and surrounding Lancashire areas.

Our training is designed for drivers and operators who use lorry-mounted forklifts (Moffetts) for deliveries, logistics, and material handling. We deliver practical, hands-on instruction to ensure safe operation, compliance, and confidence in real working environments.

Whether you are a new operator, need a refresher, or are converting from other forklift equipment, our courses are tailored to your experience level and job role.

​

What Is a Moffett Truck?

A Moffett truck (also known as a lorry-mounted forklift) is a self-contained forklift mounted to the rear of a delivery vehicle. It allows drivers to unload goods independently without requiring on-site lifting equipment.

Moffett trucks are commonly used in:

• Builders merchants

• Palletised delivery services

• Logistics and distribution

• Construction material deliveries

• Retail supply chains

Because they are used on public roads and customer sites, proper training is essential for safety and legal compliance.
