Tow Tugs

Efficient material handling is the backbone of many industries, and at Sitecraft, we offer high-quality tow tugs designed to help businesses increase productivity, improve ergonomics and reduce manual labour.

Electrical & Powered Tow Tugs Australia

Sitecraft offers an expansive range of electric tow tugs, tow tractors and powered wheelie bin movers for sale. Our selection of pedestrian and electric tugs includes the European-designed and manufactured Movexx range of towing tugs. These battery-powered motorised tugs come in various configurations to suit your material handling needs.

Tow tugs are specialised manual handling equipment that facilitates the movement of heavy loads across a facility. As a motorised solution, towing tugs significantly reduce the manual effort and risks involved when transporting bulk materials, contributing to a safer and more efficient operational environment. Tow tugs are equipped with easy-to-operate controls and come in walking or ride-on models to suit unique industrial applications from hospitality to warehousing, and waste management.

Benefits of Towing Tugs In the Workplace

Motorised tow tugs can be used by any worker to tow or push loaded trolleys or rolling loads with minimal physical effort. Sitecraft’s range of electric tow tugs, tow tractors and battery-powered vehicles are purpose-built for both indoor and outdoor use, featuring compact brushless motors that can operate in environments with high ambient temperatures, limited ventilation or high-moisture environments.

In Australia, workplace injuries from manual handling are one of the top risks faced by workers — prolonged physical exertion from handling excessively heavy loads can lead to the development of longstanding musculoskeletal conditions, and accidental falls or drops can cause life-threatening crushing injuries.

The use of tow tug equipment in materials handling procedures provides workers with a safer working environment that minimises the risk of workplace injuries, while also increasing the efficiency of loading and unloading processes in the workplace. Investing in efficient materials handling equipment, such as pedestrian towing tugs, electric powered trolleys, battery/electric pallet trucks and electric vehicles, ensures that businesses have the right equipment to handle specific manual handling operations.
