• Forklifts – Smaller heavy equipment with dual lifting arms used for construction, agriculture and landscaping tasks.
• Overhead Cranes – Uses an overhead beam to lift heavy equipment (usually in warehouses).
• Boom Lifts – Otherwise known as a man lift or a cherry picker, these boom trucks have a bucket or platform for raising and lowering workers.
• Sideloader – A special forklift made for lifting long, heavy items in narrow warehouse aisles.
• Order Pickers – A lift truck made for picking smaller orders in high-up areas of a warehouse.
• Stackers – Used to stockpile materials in bulk such as limestone and ores.
• Reclaimers – Used to gather the stacked materials created by stackers.

There are also many different types of heavy lifting equipment accessories, including slings:

• Nylon – Nylon lifting slings are strong, affordable, and not affected by oil and grease.
• Polyester – Polyester slings are not affected by most acids (except sulfuric acids and alkaline) and bleaching agents.
• Wire Rope – Wire rope slings are resistant to wear-and-tear, corrosion, and they’re ultra-flexible. Especially popular with mining operations.
• Chain – Chain slings are strong, flexible, and easy to store. They are the sling of choice for high temperatures and other tough environments, making them more expensive than other lifting accessories.
