ALLMI and MHE Training in Wales
MHE Training UK provides professional on-site ALLMI Lorry Loader, Slinger/Signaller and materials-handling equipment training for businesses across Wales. Weekday and weekend dates are available subject to our live availability, site location and travel arrangements.
On-site training across Wales
We can discuss training requirements in Cardiff, Newport, Swansea, Bridgend, Wrexham, Flintshire, Deeside, Bangor, Aberystwyth, Carmarthen, Pembrokeshire and surrounding areas. Courses are normally delivered at the customer’s workplace using suitable equipment and a safe training area.
ALLMI training in Wales
Our primary specialist courses are ALLMI Lorry Loader and ALLMI Slinger/Signaller training. Many employers search for HIAB training in Wales when they need lorry-loader operator training; HIAB is a manufacturer name commonly used for this type of equipment, while the accredited course we provide is ALLMI Lorry Loader Operator Training. Course planning considers the loader, attachments, lifting duties, candidate experience and working environment before dates are confirmed.
Driver CPC available with eligible ALLMI training: a full 7-hour ALLMI Lorry Loader or Slinger / Signaller training day can count as 7 hours towards Driver CPC, subject to driver eligibility, an approved course and training centre, and correct registration and recording. Arrange this at booking. Extra charges apply per person, per day for the Driver CPC add-on. Combining the training can reduce separate CPC training days, saving time and helping keep your drivers on the road. Driver CPC details and conditions.

Training for Welsh employers
We support logistics, manufacturing, construction, utilities, ports, warehousing, engineering, agriculture, builders merchants and other industries operating lifting or materials-handling equipment. Training is tailored to the equipment and conditions at your site rather than presented as a generic off-site course.
South, Mid, West and North Wales coverage
On-site training can be planned across South Wales, Mid Wales, West Wales and North Wales subject to the live diary and travel arrangements. South Wales enquiries commonly include Cardiff, Newport, Bridgend, Swansea, the Valleys and surrounding industrial areas. In North Wales we can discuss work around Wrexham, Deeside, Flintshire, Denbighshire, Conwy, Bangor and Anglesey. Mid and West Wales enquiries can include Powys, Ceredigion, Carmarthenshire, Pembrokeshire and neighbouring areas.
The exact postcode matters because travel time, access restrictions and the course start time all affect whether a date is practical. For longer-distance work we plan the journey around the training day so the course is not compromised by same-day travel.
Why on-site training works well for Welsh workplaces
Using the customer’s own suitable equipment allows candidates to train with the controls, attachments, loads and working environment they will actually encounter after the course. For lorry-loader work this can include the vehicle, stabilisers, loader configuration, hook, grab or other relevant attachment and the lifting area. For forklift and MHE courses it can include the warehouse aisles, racking, yard surfaces, loading areas, pedestrian routes and representative loads used in normal work.
On-site delivery also makes it easier to discuss local workplace hazards that a generic training-centre course may not reproduce. These can include restricted yards, uneven outdoor ground, tight warehouse aisles, mixed vehicle and pedestrian traffic, overhead obstructions, loading bays, narrow access points and the specific lifting or materials-handling tasks carried out by the business.
What to prepare before the course
- Make the correct machine or loader available for the agreed training period.
- Provide a safe practical area with enough room for the required exercises.
- Have representative loads, pallets or lifting accessories available where the course requires them.
- Provide machine documentation and any relevant site operating procedures.
- Confirm candidate names, previous training and operating experience before the course.
- Tell us about inductions, PPE rules, access restrictions or site-specific hazards in advance.
Providing this information early helps us confirm the correct course route and reduces the risk of lost training time on the day.

We then confirm the suitable course route, expected duration, equipment and site requirements, travel arrangements and written price before the booking is agreed.
Wales training questions
Can training be delivered at our premises?
Yes, provided your site has suitable equipment, facilities and a safe training area. On-site delivery is particularly useful when operators need to train on the exact loader crane, forklift or MHE equipment they use at work.
Which details are needed for a quotation?
Please provide the site postcode, course or machine required, candidate numbers, experience levels and preferred dates. Machine photographs and data-plate information can also help where the exact category is unclear.
Do you provide weekend training in Wales?
Yes. Weekday and weekend dates are available subject to location, travel arrangements, site suitability and the live diary.
Can one visit cover more than one training requirement?
Potentially, but each course still needs enough time, suitable equipment and the correct candidate route. Tell us every requirement at the quotation stage so the programme can be planned realistically rather than adding work on the day.
Do you cover both ALLMI and forklift training?
Yes. ALLMI Lorry Loader and Slinger/Signaller remain our primary accredited courses, alongside a wider range of forklift and MHE operator training delivered on-site.

Planning training anywhere in Wales
Send the full site postcode so travel and scheduling can be checked accurately. We will confirm whether the requested weekday or weekend dates are practical before a booking is accepted.
For the most accurate quotation, include all machine and candidate details at the start rather than only the course name. A lorry loader with a grab attachment, a high-lift reach truck, a VNA machine or a rough-terrain telehandler can require different preparation from a standard machine in the same broad family. Clear information allows the course to be planned around the real equipment and task.
