About this Course

The Yard Truck training course is regulation-aligned and online, covering basic anatomy, pre-shift inspection, safe operations, common hazards, and case studies. We stress the importance of thorough pre-shift inspection before using the yard truck, ensuring its functionality and components are properly maintained. 

We also go over how to pair and uncouple a trailer properly, carry a trailer safely, and spot or portion a trailer effectively, among other aspects of running a yard truck safely. Wearing PPE when operating a yard truck is another topic covered in the training. Lastly, we address a few of the most common hazards connected to yard trucks and how to identify, prevent, or mitigate them. 

This presentation includes practice quiz questions for the final written test and a checklist for employers to use in addition to the written test for the practical exam mandated by OSHA.
