The Forearm Forklift™ was designed in 1997 by a professional mover who is still very active in the industry.  After many years "on the truck" he felt compelled to invent a tool that actually eliminated the risk of floor damage.  A claim that only the Forearm Forklift™ can make since the dolly and hand truck require the rolling of wheels on your sensitive floors.

Coincidentally, he also designed them ergonomically to encourage proper lifting techniques and body mechanics.  They are actually the first and only OSHA accepted moving tool ever to reduce potential injuries due to heavy and repetitive lifting.

The Forearm Forklift™ was awarded "Best New Product of the Year 1999" by the Industrial Equipment News whose constituents are solely top professionals in the business.
