Why Get Certified With South Jersey Lift?
Our team of instructors brings a combined 45 years of real-world safety training experience across warehousing, manufacturing, construction, and marine environments.
We don’t just teach the regulations, we've lived them! Our depth of experience means your operators get practical, no-nonsense instruction that translates directly to safer, more efficient daily performance in your facility.
- Full OSHA compliance: classroom theory + hands-on driving + site-specific evaluation (where applicable)
- Certification valid for 3 years (OSHA requires recertification every 3 years)
- Training at our Toms River training center or on-site anywhere in Central New Jersey (available by special request)
- Individual or group classes – we routinely certify 10–25 operators in a single day

**Important OSHA Requirement** Every operator must carry proof of training while operating a forklift. Failure to produce valid certification during an inspection can trigger fines of $5,000–$15,000+ per operator. Protect your people and your business! Don't let your certifications lapse!
