Boosting Warehouse Productivity with Columbia's Electric Utility Vehicles

Columbia’s emissions free industrial electric vehicles are versatile, robust, and built for work in industrial and warehouse settings. Read on to find out how Columbia can help boost productivity and streamline your material handling operations! 

Optimizing Fleet Utilization 

In material handling and warehouse fleets, using the right vehicle for the job is key. Using fork trucks to move cargo through the warehouse can tie up your vertical lift vehicles and create unnecessary safety risks. Columbia offers many vehicles with flatbeds and best in class payload capacity to take on cross-warehouse and inter-warehouse moves. 

The Columbia Payloader is available in three payload capacities to meet a range of needs. The Standard Duty Payloader is rated for up to 2,400 lbs cargo capacity, the Heavy Duty is rated for up to 3,200 lbs, and the Super Duty is rated for up to 4,000 lbs! The Payloader also boasts tow capacities up to 18,000 lbs – enough to tow an elephant! 

For smaller loads or pick and pack operations, the Columbia Stockchaser excels at cargo and single passenger transport. With a width of just 29.5”, the Stockchaser can traverse narrow aisles and go most places your crew can go on-foot. The Stockchaser brings speeds up to 9 mph, and a cargo capacity of 1,200 lbs, making it a real game changer when it comes to increasing cycle time and ensuring order accuracy! 

The Columbia Expediter is an excellent addition to any workspace that relies on up-time! It excels as a quick people mover with room for tools and equipment, making it great for maintenance and repairs. Or fold down the rear seat to bring a second passenger!

Built for Reliability 

Columbia’s industrial electric vehicles are built for work, engineered to withstand the rigors of material handling environments, minimizing equipment downtime. The core of Columbia’s industrial vehicle design is frame strength, with all Columbia vehicles built with high-strength tubular, channel, or 10-gauge structural steel in construction. We then assemble our unitized bodies with powder-coated smooth plate steel, ensuring corrosion resistance and durability in harsh industrial settings. All Columbia vehicles can be charged using standard wall outlets and are compatible with standard heavy-duty charging cables, streamlining your charging needs.

Configurable for Your Site

Columbia vehicles offer a wide array of configurable options, such as strobe lights and cargo bed rails, as well as upgrades such as tow packages, higher rated controller,  or even AC Drive. Columbia also offers various storage solutions for tools and equipment, including ladder racks, van bodies, and tool boxes. 

Columbia electric vehicles offer the perfect blend of versatility, robustness, and efficiency to help hit all your operational metrics. Our industry-leading electric utility vehicles are designed to adapt to any task, ensuring seamless productivity and unmatched performance.
