ALLMI Lorry Loader and Slinger/Signaller training in Aberdeen
Describe the loader, lifting accessories and attachments used for supply or equipment deliveries. Identify ground staff involved in preparing or signalling the lift as well as the vehicle-mounted loader operator.
Our ALLMI training courses include Lorry Loader Operator and Slinger/Signaller. HIAB is a manufacturer name often used when searching for lorry-loader training. The course route is agreed from the candidate’s experience and the work required.
Successful ALLMI candidates receive the relevant ALLMI certificate and operator card carrying the CSCS logo. Driver CPC can be available with eligible ALLMI training, subject to the driver, approved course and recording requirements. Arrange this at booking; an extra charge applies per person, per day.

Reach stacker and container-handler training in Aberdeen
For a container-handling operation, specify the G4 reach stacker or G2 empty-container handler and the work candidates will carry out. Provide any site induction requirements before the course is scheduled.
See the G4 reach stacker and G2 empty-container-handler course information. Novice, experienced, refresher or conversion needs are assessed from the operator’s background and equipment. Training uses suitable employer equipment, representative loads and an agreed practical area.

Forklift training in Aberdeen – counterbalance, reach and refresher courses
Arrange on-site forklift training at your Aberdeen workplace, using suitable equipment and a controlled practical area.
For workshop and supply-base work, identify heavy counterbalance, sideloader, multidirectional, overhead-crane or warehouse-truck requirements individually. Send capacities and attachment details rather than simply requesting industrial forklift training.
Choose counterbalance forklift training, reach truck training or VNA forklift training. Previously trained operators can discuss forklift refresher training in Aberdeen. See the forklift and MHE course directory for other equipment.
Tell us each operator’s previous training and experience so we can confirm the novice, experienced-operator, refresher or conversion route. These are in-house MHE courses; the quotation confirms the equipment, duration and certificate arrangements before booking.
Forklift training in Aberdeen can cover B-category counterbalance, D-category reach truck and F-category VNA operators, with forklift refresher training in Aberdeen or conversion training where previous experience supports the route. We can also discuss sideloader and multidirectional truck training, T1 vehicle-mounted lift truck training, pallet truck/stacker and order-picker training where suitable workplace equipment is available. There is no separate “forklift licence”; successful operator training is recorded by certificate for the relevant truck category.
Forklift and MHE training for Aberdeen energy and engineering supply chains
Aberdeen remains closely tied to offshore energy while the city develops its energy-transition economy around projects such as the South Harbour Energy Transition Zone and hydrogen initiatives. That creates a local training need that can involve heavy yards, engineering workshops, long loads, delivery fleets and conventional warehouse storage.
Alongside B-category counterbalance forklift training, Aberdeen employers handling pipe, steel or fabricated components can use C-category sideloaders or M-category multidirectional trucks. Workshops can add overhead crane training, delivery fleets can use T1 vehicle-mounted lift truck training, and S2 vehicle/MHE banksman training can support busy yard movements.
Where palletised stock is stored in racking, D-category reach training remains a separate requirement. This allows an Aberdeen employer to build one training programme across yard, workshop, delivery and warehouse equipment without blurring the competence requirements between machines.
Planning training at your Aberdeen site
Port of Aberdeen serves energy and cargo activity as well as ferry and cruise operations.
We can discuss suitable workplaces in Aberdeen and nearby north-east Scotland workplaces. Confirm the working postcode and the equipment available at that location.
- Include the correct harbour, yard or works gate and arrangements for a visiting instructor.
- Release the agreed machine and representative loads independently of vessel or dispatch schedules.
- For a longer-distance booking, send several date options so travel and course delivery can be agreed together.
Provide a suitable theory space as well as the practical area. Training dates and the course duration are confirmed once the machine, candidate numbers and experience are understood.
Can a course be planned around a supply-base schedule?
Send the operating schedule and realistic equipment-release periods. We can discuss dates once access, suitable facilities and travel arrangements are confirmed.
