What to Consider When Choosing a Pedestrian Electric Tug

Towing Capacity

Probably the most important factor to consider is matching your chosen tug’s power capabilities to your heaviest operational duties. The last thing you want is to invest in an electric tow tug that falls short when it comes to some of the more heavy-duty tasks you ask of it. We have models available which support lighter handling tasks, with capacities of around 1,500kg to 6,000kg which should be plenty for jobs in local councils, garden centres, business parks, hotels and the like.

When you need more high-capacity electric tug vehicles, look for capacities of around 10,000kg to 30,000kg as these will allow you to shift heavier goods and materials seen in industries such as logistics, aviation and waste management.

Manoeuvrability in Tight Spaces

Most electric tug models are compact with short turning radiuses, which makes them useful for both indoor and outdoor settings. From tight corridors to production lines to other space-restricted areas. Models like the M16 and the Jobmaster range all offer strong towing performance with compact footprints, which will allow you to transport heavy goods with perfect balance with even the ability to rotate the model on itself for maximum flexibility.

Terrain and Application

All of our tugs are engineered for flat, firm surfaces such as warehouse floors, roads and paved outdoor spaces. Push, pull and steer wheeled loads across a range of environments without concern, with some of our customisation options also being available to assist with movement up and down ramps and across similar uneven terrain. These helpful towing vehicles will increase productivity, reduce manual handling and improve safety across your business.

Battery Range and Power

Every pedestrian operated electric tugger is powered by a 24V battery system which offers up to 12 miles per charge, which ensures consistent performance through a full work shift – whether on short internal runs or larger site-wide tasks. Operating the tug itself is incredibly simple also, so you won’t be wasting batter power passing the tug between workers who have to try and piece together how to get their vehicle moving – simply walk behind it, controlling speed and direction with the handheld controller.

Customise Your Electric Tow Tug

We offer a wide range of vehicle customisation and configuration options that will allow you to tailor your chosen tow tug vehicle to suit your specific operational needs. For specialist electric bin tugs, we offer cage enclosures, reinforced towing arms, dedicated hitch systems and more. Producing custom electric baggage tugs is another popular request, with fit outs in the form of optional hooks and tow bars which can be integrated to support airport trolleys and luggage carts. Whatever your application or sector calls for, our team can make possible.
