A telehandler, also called a teleporter or a reach forklift, is a machine often used in the construction industry. It is somewhat like a forklift but has a boom, making it more a crane than a forklift, with the expanded versatility of a single telescopic boom that can reach upward and forward from the vehicle. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as a bucket or a winch.
In construction, the most common attachment for a reach forklift is pallet forks and the most common application is to move loads from and to locations unreachable for a conventional forklift. For instance, teleporters have the ability to move palletized product from within a trailer and to place that material on to rooftops and other high places. The latter application would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient in a construction zone.
In agriculture the most common attachment for a reach forklift is a bucket, again the most common application is to transport to and from places unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which is typically is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For example, zoom booms are able to extend directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a loading ramp, or something similar
