Midland Pallet Trucks Makes the Most of E-Commerce


Purchasing handling equipment online from Midland Pallet Trucks is now even simpler and more efficient thanks to the introduction of PayPal, the world’s most popular online payment processor. Pallet trucks, manual stacker trucks and a whole range of other industrial apparatus can be placed into a virtual shopping basket and purchased using the secure system, with the entire process taking less time than it would to write out a cheque. PayPal has revolutionised the face of e-commerce across the globe and can now revolutionise workplaces such as factories and distribution centres on a much more personal level for business owners.

Whether opting for a single hand pallet truck + PayPal or choosing to draft in a fleet of high-specification lifting trucks with specialist capabilities, PayPal allows for purchases of all sizes and amounts. Bulk orders can be placed and single purchases can be made with ease. The online payments are processed instantly, and the flexibility that the site offers means that a payment can be made using money from a number of different sources, whether it is a debit card or a company bank account. All transactions produce detailed receipts and records, which can then be downloaded for company records through the Transaction History; vital for keeping the books up to date.

PayPal’s vast experience with large business and corporations means that their processes and the site’s interface have been honed specifically to help those running a company. For those purchasing pallet trucks for use within their own businesses, the main advantages will be the security features it offers and the incredibly quick payment processing which is facilitated. The secure payment process is crucial for businesses buying pallet trucks online; without effective security mechanisms in place, hackers or those with malicious intent could end up with business banking details and access to private accounts. PayPal prevents this from happening with stringent security procedures to verify and protect each user and to ensure each transaction is private and secure.

Once payments are securely processed, the preparation and dispatch of an order can begin, and the faster this takes place, the faster the pallet trucks will be put to their intended use.  From a business point of view, fast processing and delivery times is vital to keep things running smoothly; if a pallet truck needs to be replaced or a new weighing scale pallet truck is desperately needed within the workplace, PayPal’s can set the wheels of delivery in motion as soon as possible.

Eoslift Range Fit For All Purposes Now Available from Midland Pallet Trucks


Eoslift is one of the world’s foremost manufacturers of warehousing and lifting equipment, and Midland Pallet Trucks, with their finger firmly on the pulse of the warehouse industry, recognises high quality products are a must for many businesses and organisations. Their range of Eoslift pallet trucks is already extensive and is due to be expanded further in the coming weeks in order to offer all clients a higher level of flexibility and versatility within their fleets.

Currently in stock at Midland Pallet Trucks is the Eoslift DBA25 Pallet Truck 540x1150 with a capacity of 2500kg. The Euro-compatible truck has forks measuring 540mm x 1150mm and is both TUV/GS approved and CE rated.  Polyurethane wheels offer the truck plenty of grip and allow for both quiet operation and a higher level of protection on smoother surfaces and more delicate floors. Running costs are low with this basic and integral truck; the hydraulic pump and the three-position release trigger requires little maintenance, and the body of the pallet truck itself is coated with epoxy powder to ensure protection from corrosion and potentially harmful substances.

The Eoslift range also caters for other pallet sizes. Their DBD25 Hand Pallet Truck is a lightweight handling solution with forks measuring 450mm x 800mm; the ideal size for printer pallets. The truck, which also has a 2500kg capacity, has both a hand lever and a foot pedal for ultimate control over the unit, whilst the 210 degree turning radius makes it easier manoeuvre around warehouse aisles and around tight corners. A special lowering valve is fitted which adds an element of extra security to the truck by limiting the rate of descent; this prolongs the truck’s life span and helps to keep it in prime condition, also protecting the operator.

As well as printer pallets, the Eoslift range also features trucks with both wide and extra wide forks; the DBD25 pallet truck has forks measuring at 685mm x 1000mm, while its bigger brother, the DBA25B pump truck measures in at 685mm x 1220mm. Both models are ideal for GKN pallets, and both come with all of the hardwearing and high-quality features that all of the Eoslift range has as standard. PU wheels and double PU rollers make for ease of use, whilst a leak-proof hydraulic system and grease fittings at pivotal points help to ensure that these big name trucks will be around for many years to come.
