Order Pickers for your business
Order pickers are built for faster, safer stock access where picking flow matters more than general forklift work. For many Perth businesses, they solve a common issue: too much walking, too much waiting, and too much reliance on ladders or other workarounds when orders need to move quickly.
Compass Forklifts supplies order pickers to Perth businesses and helps you choose the right setup based on pick height, aisle layout, travel distance, shift pattern and site conditions. New supply is available, used options may be available, and hire and leasing can be arranged when flexibility matters.
Order pickers make the most sense in high SKU environments, constant order volume operations and sites where access at height is part of the daily process. They are often the right choice when pick faces are spread out, stock needs to be accessed safely, and delays between picking and dispatch are starting to affect throughput. In practical terms, they help improve pick speed, reduce operator fatigue and create a more controlled and efficient picking process.
Before recommending a unit, we look at the details that matter once it is working on site. That includes pick height, aisle width, travel distance, floor condition, turning space, congestion points and how hard the machine will be worked through the shift. We supply and support EP and Jungheinrich, and we also deal with TCM, Toyota, Hyster, Yale and many others where the unit is a sensible fit. If you want ownership, we can supply new units and used options when available. If you want flexibility or a predictable monthly cost, ask about hiring and leasing. We also support the whole of Perth with servicing, repairs, and response typically same day or next day, depending on location and workload.
Order Picker FAQs
What You Need to Know
Before You Buy or hire
Please see a selection of the most commonly asked questions relating to our range of order pickers and associated accessories.
What is an order picker used for in a warehouse?
An order picker is used to access stock safely and efficiently during picking tasks, especially where operators need to work at height or move through pick faces quickly. It is built for picking and fulfilment work, not general forklift duties.
When is an order picker better than a forklift?
An order picker is usually the better choice when pick speed, stock access and safe work at height matter more than general lifting or pallet movement. If the job is mainly piece picking or carton picking, a forklift is often not the right tool for the workflow.
Are order pickers worth it for high SKU warehouses?
Yes. They are often worth it when pick faces are spread out, order volume is steady and too much time is being lost walking, waiting or working around access issues. In that kind of environment, an order picker can make the picking process faster, safer and more consistent.
What do I need to check before choosing an order picker?
The main things are pick height, aisle width, travel distance, floor condition, turning space and how hard the machine will be worked across the shift. Those details affect whether the unit will actually suit the warehouse and keep picking moving properly.
Can I hire an order picker before buying?
Yes. Hiring gives you the chance to test whether the machine improves picking speed, access and operator efficiency before committing to a purchase. That can be useful for seasonal demand, layout changes or when you want to see what difference it makes in a live shift.
