Keep material handling moving in warehouses, logistics yards and factories. Tell us how many LPG forklift trucks you run, your shift pattern and how often cylinders are exchanged.
Where forklift gas is used
Forklifts move stock in more places than the warehouse floor. Each operation has its own bottle turnover, delivery access and busy periods:
- Warehouses: goods-in, pallet movements, picking and loading bays may need cylinders ready across shifts.
- Distribution and logistics: dispatch peaks and several depots call for a clear exchange plan by site and delivery window.
- Factories and manufacturing: production lines, stores and yard movements may depend on trucks being ready during working shifts.
Tell us where your forklifts work, how many trucks use LPG and when cylinders are changed. We can discuss 18kg propane bottle availability, compatible fittings and a suitable supply pattern for each location.
Supply planned around your working day
From goods-in and order picking to loading bays and factory material handling, a forklift running short of fuel can interrupt a shift. Plan cylinder stock around the trucks actually in service, shift patterns, peak dispatch periods and the number of bottles changed each week. That gives your team a clearer exchange and delivery schedule.
Which bottle and equipment?
Compass Gas supplies 18kg propane cylinders intended for compatible LPG forklift trucks. Tell us the truck model and current cylinder fitting before switching suppliers. The cylinder connection and orientation must match the equipment; trained operators should follow the truck maker’s instructions.
Typical starting point: 18kg forklift propane. The correct cylinder depends on your equipment specification.
Delivery and exchange
A single forklift at a small warehouse and a multi-shift distribution centre need different stock levels. Share the number of working trucks, weekly cylinder use, delivery windows, loading-bay access and where empties are stored. For factories and multi-site logistics operations, give us each address and its usage so we can discuss a practical exchange and repeat supply arrangement.
What to include in your enquiry
- How many LPG trucks run across your warehouse, factory or distribution shifts?
- How many cylinders do you currently exchange per week?
- Which delivery windows and loading-bay access rules apply?
- Do several sites need separate deliveries?
