- Certificate in 1 day

Working accurately around high storage racks takes confidence and good reach truck control. During the refresher course, you'll practise manoeuvring in tight spaces and handling loads safely, with guidance from an experienced instructor.
After passing the exam, you'll receive a new certificate confirming your skills as a reach truck operator.
- Refreshing safety rules and reach truck operator responsibilities
- Checking the reach truck and preparing it for use
- Reach truck stability and safe load handling at height
- Identifying hazards in high-bay warehouses
- Improving manoeuvring skills in narrow aisles
- Practising lifting and placing pallets on storage racks
- Correcting mistakes and getting practical tips from the instructor
The refresher course takes place over one day and includes:
- A short theory session
- Hands-on training to improve your manoeuvring skills
- A theory exam
- A practical exam
You must be at least 18 years old and have a valid form of ID (national ID card or passport). A driving licence is not accepted as proof of identity.
To join the refresher course, you must present your previous reach truck certificate before the training starts. The certificate must still be valid or have expired no more than 3 months ago. We only accept certificates issued in the Benelux countries (the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg).
If you cannot provide a certificate that meets these requirements, you cannot take the refresher course and will need to pay the price difference to switch to the standard reach truck course. Practical experience alone is not enough.
You must also be physically and mentally fit to operate a reach truck safely.
We offer refresher courses in English, Dutch, Polish, Romanian and Russian.
Please check the availability of your preferred language and course dates before booking.
