More than likely it was the Walkie Pallet Trucks instead of the stand on model, the batteries in the stand-on'a can weigh quite a bit. The walkie ones are commonly found on box trucks, soda/beer trailers, and independ carriers that unload their own loads at warehouses and have a much lighter battery; overall they are smaller, lighter, and easier to have on the back of a trailer. The weight of the stand-on models could easily cause carriers to have to remove 2-4 pallets of product (if not more) just to ensure they aren't overweight.
