Forklift Towing / Forklift Transport Ottawa

Forklift transport in Ottawa moves your forklift safely between warehouses, construction sites, repair shops, and storage facilities. Forklifts cannot legally be driven on public roads. They are too slow, too wide, and lack the lighting and safety equipment required for street use. Ontario Towing loads forklifts onto flatbed trucks and delivers them wherever they need to go across Ottawa.

How forklift transport works

Our flatbed trucks use hydraulic tilt beds or ramps to load forklifts. The forklift drives onto the flatbed under its own power if it is running, or we winch it on if it is not. Once loaded, we secure it with rated straps and transport it to the destination. The whole process from loading to delivery depends on the distance but most local runs in Ottawa take under two hours.

When Ottawa businesses need forklift transport

A construction company renting a forklift needs it moved from the rental yard on Sheffield Road to a job site in Kanata. A warehouse in the east end is sending a forklift to a dealer in Nepean for repair. A manufacturer on Bantree Street is relocating to a new facility and needs two forklifts moved over the weekend. These are all jobs we handle regularly.
