Telehandler Training in Inverurie
Accredited, on-site telehandler training for manufacturing, distribution, construction and agricultural operators across Aberdeenshire.
Telehandler Training delivered where you work in Inverurie
Logan Plant Training delivers accredited telehandler training on-site across Inverurie (AB51), about 28 road miles from our Aboyne base (~45 mins via A944 / A96). We work with manufacturing, distribution, construction and agricultural operators operating around Thainstone and Inverurie's industrial estates — including teams at Thainstone Mart (ANM Group), Burnside Industrial Estate tenants, Blackhall Industrial Estate, and shape each telehandler course around your equipment, shift patterns and risk profile.
The course covers practical telehandler operation and the regulations that apply on your site — including LOLER 1998 and PUWER 1998. Thainstone, Burnside and Blackhall estates run high-volume distribution and food manufacturing — racking heights, loading-bay traffic and reach-truck competence are the recurring focus areas. On completion, successful candidates receive an accredited telehandler operator certificate, recognised by auditors and procurement teams across Aberdeenshire.
Prerequisites: Aged 18+ (16+ for agricultural settings). Basic site induction useful.
Pricing guide: Day rate typically £550–£1,100 depending on machine size and category.

Telehandler Training on Inverurie sites — typical scenarios
These are the situations manufacturing in Aberdeenshire bring us to cover with their telehandler operators. We work each one through on your own kit, on your own site.
- Scenario 1

Swapping bucket → forks → man-cage and re-checking the LOLER record
- Scenario 3
Tele-handling round livestock or farm pedestrians without segregation
Telehandler Training — common audit findings we prevent
From Aberdeenshire sites we've trained on, these are the telehandler findings that come up repeatedly in HSE inspections and principal-contractor audits.
- Operating outside the load chart because the boom angle was eyeballed
- Forgetting that a man-cage requires a thorough examination every 6 months, not 12
- Pulling away with a raised load on uneven ground — the top cause of tip-overs
