About Meco
Meco Omaha builds forklift work platforms for industrial facilities that need safe, controlled access to elevated areas. The company's platforms are designed to mount directly on a lift truck's forks, letting maintenance crews, warehouse staff, and order pickers reach shelving, machinery, lighting, and overhead building systems without scaffolding or a dedicated aerial lift. The product line is rooted in a simple idea: turn an existing forklift into a practical elevated work position.
The flagship offering is the MPL series of forklift maintenance platforms, available in several deck sizes including the MPL1, MPL2, MPL3, MPL4, and MPL5. Each platform uses full-length fork pockets for easy entry and exit, a non-slip floor plate deck, a 4-inch toe plate to contain loose objects, 42-inch high side rails, a positive-locking gate, an expanded metal screen separating the worker from the vehicle, and a safety chain that secures the platform to the lift truck. Optional accessories such as casters, tool trays, riser screens, and a tube-and-bulb caddy let buyers configure a platform for specific jobs, and the caster option adds mobility with a 1,000 lb capacity.
These platforms serve warehouses, manufacturing plants, distribution centers, stockrooms, and maintenance departments. Order picking teams use them to reach higher inventory locations, while maintenance crews rely on them for repairs, inspections, and facility service work. They are also used for accessing signs, lights, and building systems, making them a general-purpose elevated access tool wherever a compatible forklift is available.
On the used market, Meco forklift platforms appeal to buyers because they are simple, rugged steel structures with few wear parts and no complex electronics to fail. The enclosed design, standard fork-pocket spacing, and bolt-on accessories make them easy to inspect, repair, and adapt to existing lift truck fleets. For operations that need occasional elevated access without the cost of a scissor lift or boom lift, a used Meco platform is a low-maintenance, high-utility alternative.
