The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as a bucket or a muck grab. In construction, the most widely used attachment for a zoom boom is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move loads from and to locations unreachable for a standard forklift. For example, zoom booms have the ability to remove palletized cargo from within a trailer and to place that cargo on to rooftops and other elevated locations.
