Electric Pedestrian Stackers

No, you don’t need a licence to operate a pedestrian truck. However, the following points should be considered: Employer training, supervision, age restrictions and competency certification.

An electric pedestrian stacker is a compact powered stacker used for low-to-mid lift pallet stacking and order staging in small warehouses, stores and production lines where forklifts aren’t necessary.

Pedestrian stackers typically lift from a few metres up to around 4-5 metres depending on the model. Choose capacity based on the heaviest regular pallet weight and required lift height, adding a safety margin for uneven loads.

Use speed limiting, warning lights/alarms, clear pedestrian routes, operator training and visible marking to separate pedestrian traffic from stacker operations and reduce collision risks.

Yes, modern pedestrian stacker models are available with lithium-ion batteries that enable fast opportunity charging, reduce battery changeover logistics and increase uptime for busy shift patterns.

Choose a pedestrian stacker when you need low-to-mid height stacking in tight or mixed-use environments where a full forklift would be oversized and a manual pallet truck cannot lift to the required height.
