What Do I Bring to My Forklift Course?

Bring your photo ID, a drink bottle, and any eyewear you need while driving.

You’ll be operating a forklift for most of the day, so wear standard PPE (a work shirt, work shorts or pants, and safety boots).

Worried about running out of caffeine?

Fuel up at our on-site tea and coffee bar or walk over to Skinner Street for lunch.

Once you’re back at the training base, our assessor will take you through your practical assessment.

How long does a forklift licence last?

A forklift licence is a class of high-risk work licence, which means you’ll need to renew it every 5 years.

How do I get a forklift licence?

To get a forklift licence in New South Wales, you’ll need to obtain an assessment enrolment number (AEN) online from Service NSW. You can then undertake your training and assessment with us. Once we’ve issued you with a notice of satisfactory assessment, you can apply for your licence online through Service NSW.

How hard is the LO licence course?

Most of our students find that getting their LO licence is harder than obtaining a heavy vehicle licence. The LO course includes a theory component that requires written answers (not just multiple choice). You’ll also be asked to perform calculations around load size, which can be challenging if you haven’t practiced maths for a while. The easiest way to prepare for the theory component is to brush up on your multiplication and unit conversion skills. Looking up concepts like centre of gravity, stability triangle, and load centre distance may also be helpful.

What is an LO forklift licence?

An order-picking forklift truck (LO) licence is a class of high-risk work licence. It lets you operate an order picker, which is a type of forklift that features an operator platform with built-in controls. The operator can control the order picker without leaving the platform, allowing them to retrieve individual items from high shelves. We don’t currently offer LO forklift licences.

When do I need to pay for my course?

We ask that all course fees be paid before you start. We accept card and direct debit from individual students; if you’re an organisation, we’ll invoice you once your people are booked in.

Do you offer discounted group training for organisations?

No, we don’t. Our LF licence course includes group training with up to 8 students. If you have multiple people in your organisation who need licences, you’re welcome to book out any available places so they undertake training together.

What happens if I fail?

If you don’t pass your practical assessment, you’re welcome to rebook at the next available opening. Because we charge for our instructors’ time and the use of our vehicles, we don’t offer refunds or free second attempts. Don’t worry, though – with an average 98% pass rate across our students, there’s a very good chance that you’ll get your licence on your first try.
