FAQs

What are warehouse and industrial tugs used for?

Warehouse and industrial tugs are used to move heavy loads, carts, trailers and equipment within warehouses, factories and distribution centres. They help improve efficiency, reduce manual handling and support safer internal logistics operations.

What types of warehouse and industrial tugs are available?

Warehouse and industrial tugs are available in a range of configurations, including electric and combustion-powered models, pedestrian-controlled units and ride-on tugs. Different capacities and designs allow them to suit varied operational environments.

How do warehouse and industrial tugs differ from aircraft tugs?

Warehouse and industrial tugs are designed for indoor and industrial environments, focusing on moving carts and trailers on level surfaces. Aircraft tugs are engineered specifically for aircraft movement and ramp operations, with different safety and performance requirements.

What should I consider when choosing a warehouse tug?

When selecting a warehouse tug, consider the weight of the loads being moved, the required drawbar pull, the operating environment and whether electric or combustion power is more suitable for your facility.

Can warehouse and industrial tugs be used outdoors?

Some warehouse and industrial tugs are suitable for outdoor use, particularly rugged or combustion-powered models. Electric tugs are typically best suited for indoor or covered environments where low emissions and quiet operation are important.

What are the benefits of electric warehouse tugs?

Electric warehouse tugs offer quieter operation, lower emissions and reduced maintenance requirements, making them ideal for indoor use and facilities with sustainability goals.

How do I know what drawbar pull rating I need?

The required drawbar pull depends on the total weight of the loads being moved and the number of carts or trailers being towed. Choosing a tug with adequate capacity helps ensure safe and efficient operation.

Are used warehouse and industrial tugs a good option?

Used and refurbished warehouse tugs can be a cost-effective solution for many operations. When purchasing used equipment, it is important to assess condition, maintenance history and suitability for your workload.
