Which forklift licence is best for me - LF or LO?

With LF class forklift licence you can operate any forklift except for the order picker forklifts. This (order picker) is the most common type of forklifts used in warehouses. So if you are going to operate order pickers, you should obtain the LO class forklift licence. However, LF is the most popular forklift licence type so if you are yet to find a work or your current work does not require operating the order picking than LF forklift licence may be advisable.
