London trains its forklift drivers on the edges. The centre of the city has no room for a training warehouse, so the centres sit out on the industrial belt: Park Royal in the west, the trading estates around Feltham and Heathrow, and Uxbridge on the far western fringe. That is also where much of the work is. Park Royal is the largest industrial area in the capital, and the airport's cargo sheds and the logistics parks along the M4 corridor are steady employers of licensed operators. The three centres below run courses at their own premises, hold recognised accreditation and are well reviewed by the people they have trained.
Wallace Forklift Training
Wallace has trained drivers from Park Royal since 1963 and runs a dedicated forklift centre, the Wallace Warehouse, alongside its transport school. Courses are RTITB accredited, open to anyone over 18, and you don't need a car licence to book.
Address: Wallace School of Transport, 8 Steele Road, Park Royal, London NW10 7AR
