侧面装载机是一种卡车，可以拾取并运输长货物-或彼此相邻的多个货盘，然后将这些货物通过狭窄的通道向侧面行驶。
有些人还为转塔卡车使用了“侧面装载机”的名称，该卡车从过道的两侧拾取货物，然后将货物缩回到卡车的尺寸范围内，并通过非常狭窄的过道（VNA）进行运输。

        Sideloaders are trucks which pick-up and transport long loads - or several pallets next to each other and then travel with these loads sideways through narrow aisles.
The name "Sideloaders" is also used by some for Turret Trucks which pick-up loads from either side of the aisle, then retract the load to within the dimensions of the truck and transport same through Very Narrow Aisles (VNA).
