Need to move and stack pallets, but a full-size forklift feels like overkill?

That’s exactly where the Big Joe S22 earns its spot.

The S22 is a 2,200 lb. walkie straddle stacker built for general material handling, stacking, and work positioning, especially when you’re working with limited space.

Think tighter aisles. Shorter moves. Smaller facilities. Or operations that need to get pallets off the floor and into position without adding another sit-down forklift.

A few things that make it practical:

• Adjustable straddles
• Lift heights from 62” up to 116”
• Variable speed for maneuvering in close quarters
• Built-in 110V charger
• Maintenance-free batteries
• Offset tiller designed to improve visibility and turning radius

Sometimes you don’t need more forklift.

You just need the right amount of forklift for the job.

Think the S22 might fit your operation? Come see one in action. We love demos.

Three years later, their first Big Joe is still earning its keep.

Brett Adler stopped by California Paper Bag, Inc. yesterday, where their LPT33 has been moving pallets for more than three years.

For a business moving paper packaging around the shop and onto trucks for local deliveries, these pallet jacks get plenty of work.

So when the team was ready to add another piece of equipment, they came back to Big Joe.

This time: a new LPT26 ✨

At just 288 lbs. with a 2,600-lb capacity, it gives them another compact lithium-powered option for moving product without adding a lot of bulk.

Old LPT33 still working.
New LPT26 joining the crew.

We like that kind of upgrade.

If your team is still moving pallets by hand, or your operation could use another truck in the rotation, reach out to Big Joe California. We’d be happy to help find the right fit.

The forklift’s future is looking increasingly electric. ⚡

And for Big Joe California, lithium-ion isn’t a new conversation.

Big Joe Forklifts CMO Martin Boyd spoke with DC Velocity about the industry’s continued shift toward lithium power, integrated battery solutions, and why Big Joe moved early.

As Martin put it:
“It will only be a matter of time before other OEMs start to develop the solutions Big Joe has.”

From the truck to the battery to the charging solution, more operations are looking at electrification as one complete system.

DC Velocity takes a deeper look at where the forklift market is headed and how Big Joe fits into that shift.

Plot Twist 1: Big Joe looks pretty good in blue, too. 🔵

Plot Twist 2: A forklift doesn’t have to be permanent to make a big difference.

A little throwback to one of our Big Joe LVE40s out on rental, doing exactly what it was brought in to do: keep product moving.

Whether you need extra capacity for a busy stretch, have a truck down, or just don’t want to commit to another unit yet, renting can keep the operation moving without the long-term commitment.

Need a forklift for a week, a month, or longer?

Big Joe California has rental options available. Reach out and let us know what you need.

Your forklift knows more about your operation than you might think.

How long it actually works.
When it sits idle.
How operators charge it.
How much energy it uses.
What that fault code means.

Even whether adding another truck to the fleet makes sense.

Big Joe Pulse turns all of that into usable data.

And because it's built into every Big Joe electric forklift with five years of coverage included, you can start learning from your equipment from day one.

The question isn't whether your fleet is generating data.

It's whether you're using it.

So, when is the right time to upgrade a forklift?

Earlier this year, we worked with someone in the construction industry still putting these Big Joe trucks to work.

They had been reliable for years, but every piece of equipment eventually reaches a point where repairs, downtime, and limitations begin costing more than they are worth.

A forklift should support your operation, not become something your team has to work around.

After evaluating their needs, they decided to upgrade to a new Big Joe CB35, which was delivered a couple of weeks later.

There is something rewarding about seeing a trusted machine retire after years of hard work and helping a customer prepare for what comes next.

The most important thing a forklift moves isn't a pallet.

It's trust.

Every certified operator is trusted to make hundreds of decisions throughout the day. Decisions that protect coworkers, equipment, cargo, and the operation as a whole.

That's why forklift certification is about so much more than checking a box. It's about building the knowledge and confidence to make those decisions safely, consistently, and professionally.

Today, Matt Kelley was at LAX leading forklift operator training for the American Airlines team.

We're grateful for the opportunity to support a team that understands safety isn't just a requirement—it's part of building a stronger operation.

Thank you to American Airlines for your commitment to investing in your people.

Good partnerships make good customer experiences possible.

We recently welcomed the team from PNC Leasing to continue conversations around how we can better support our customers.

Every business is different, and finding the right solution often takes more than great equipment. It takes the right people working together behind the scenes.

That's the kind of collaboration we're committed to every day.
