Tail lift

A tail lift is a hydraulic lifting platform at the rear of a truck that allows pallets to be loaded and unloaded without a dock or forklift.

Use: deliveries to addresses without a loading dock, such as building sites, shops or private customers.

Effect: a tail lift adds unladen weight and reduces payload.

Price: tail-lift deliveries are often charged a surcharge, which can be entered as an additional cost in Logist Calculator.
