Stand-Up Reach Truck vs. Stand-Up Counterbalance Forklift

Which One Is Right for Your Warehouse?
When you're choosing between a stand-up reach truck and a stand-up counterbalance forklift,
it all comes down to your warehouse layout, racking system, and load requirements. Here’s how they compare: 

Feature

Stand-Up Reach Truck

Stand-Up Counterbalance Forklift

Design Purpose

Built for narrow aisles and high racking. Ideal for indoor use in tight warehouse spaces.

Designed for more versatility, works in slightly wider aisles and can handle both indoor and light outdoor tasks.

Reach Mechanism

Has a pantograph reach system that allows the forks to extend forward to pick/load pallets.

No reach mechanism – relies on counterbalance weight to lift and move loads.

Turning Radius

Very tight turning radius, optimized for space-saving.

Slightly larger turning radius due to its build. Still compact, but not as tight as a reach truck.

Load Capacity

Typically ranges from 1.5 to 2.5 tons.

Higher capacity—FLIFT’s model handles up to 3 tons. Great for heavier loads.

Lifting Height

Excellent for high stacking, often up to 9–11 meters.

Can lift to 6 meters or more, but not as high as a reach truck.

Stability

Better for lighter loads at high heights. Not ideal for uneven ground.

More stable on uneven floors or inclines; 15% gradeability like FLIFT’s model.

Tire Type

Usually polyurethane tires for smooth indoor floors.

Uses solid non-marking tires, suitable for clean indoor areas and occasional rougher surfaces.

Use Case

Perfect for tight warehouses with tall racking systems.

Ideal for mixed-use spaces, loading docks, or when moving between indoor and semi-outdoor areas.

If you have limited space and need to store things vertically, a reach-up truck is the best choice.

If you want more lifting power, greater stability and flexibility in different work zones,
choose a counterbalanced forklift such as FLIFT’s 3-ton FLIFT model.
