Big Joe Donates Custom Walkie Stacker to University of Wisconsin-Madison’s College of Engineering

When a 1960s-era Big Joe walkie stacker was discovered still in use at the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s College of Engineering, Big Joe Forklifts knew it had to do something special. In honor of the decades-old workhorse still serving the university’s engineering department, Big Joe donated a brand new IBH stacker, branded with the University of Wisconsin’s signature red and white, to support and empower the next generation of engineers.

The new Big Joe stacker will be used in instructional and operational settings within the College of Engineering, giving students hands-on experience with modern material handling equipment.

Wisconsin-born and built, the Big Joe IBH is proudly manufactured about an hour northwest of the university, in the Wisconsin Dells. Staying true to its Wisconsin roots, the original forklift will be moved from the university to a new home at Big Joe’s Madison headquarters, where it will serve as a testament to the longevity of Big Joe equipment, the spirit of innovation, and partnership that powers progress.
