City of London and Greater London coverage
This page is focused on the City of London and central Square Mile. Employers looking for training in Croydon, Heathrow, Hillingdon, Enfield or other outer-London areas should use the Greater London ALLMI, HIAB and forklift training page, which is written for those locations.
Central London sites need detailed planning
The City of London is different from a typical warehouse or industrial estate. Space can be extremely limited, delivery windows may be tightly controlled, pedestrian movement is high and contractors often share the same access routes. A training booking therefore needs more site information than simply a postcode and machine category.
Before confirming a course, we need to understand how the equipment reaches the practical area, where exercises can take place and whether the machine can remain available without conflicting with deliveries or construction activity.
Training categories that may be suitable
| Training need | Course |
|---|---|
| Vehicle-mounted loader crane operator | ALLMI Lorry Loader Operator |
| Attaching, controlling or directing loads | ALLMI Slinger / Signaller |
| Warehouse and yard forklift operations | Counterbalance forklift training |
| Racked warehouse operations | Reach truck training |
Where the workplace and equipment are appropriate, training can include ALLMI Lorry Loader and Slinger/Signaller courses, counterbalance and reach trucks, VNA equipment, pallet trucks, order pickers, telescopic handlers, overhead cranes, scissor lifts and other suitable MHE categories.
The correct route depends on candidate experience. Novice, experienced and refresher operators should be identified before the date is agreed because the course duration and practical requirements differ.
Access and practical-space checks
For a City of London site, confirm the actual goods entrance, vehicle restrictions, loading-bay arrangements and the space available for training. If the practical area is shared with deliveries, a quieter period or weekend may be preferable.
For ALLMI work, vehicle positioning is especially important. The loader, lifting area, representative loads and any required accessories must all be available without obstructing unsafe areas or conflicting with other site activity.

- The exact site address and correct vehicle or goods entrance.
- Any delivery-slot, access, parking or security restrictions.
- The machine category, attachments and available practical space.
- Candidate numbers and individual experience levels.
- Any induction, permit or contractor requirements.

City of London training FAQs
Can training be delivered on a very restricted central site?
Possibly, but only where the equipment can be operated safely and there is enough controlled practical space. Send clear site information before booking so suitability can be checked.
Can weekend training help with access?
Yes. Weekend dates can be requested subject to the diary and may suit sites where weekday deliveries, pedestrians or contractors make practical work difficult.
Do you need the goods entrance rather than the office address?
Yes. For central locations, the correct vehicle entrance and arrival instructions are essential.
What if the practical area is only available at certain times?
Send those windows when requesting the course. The machine and area need to be available for the practical element of the training.
