The invention relates to a lifter, for example for a stack of bread crates. The lifter preferably comprises a main support mast 3 (eg an upwardly extending frame 4), a carriage 8 engaged with the mast and having clamps 9 adapted to move laterally with respect to the mast to grip one or more crates 2 so that the crate(s) can be moved by the carriage up and down the mast. The lifter has a keeper 14 arranged such that it is caused to swing (eg pivot) in response to the clamps engaging the crate, or a lowest crate to be moved if there is more than one, to bring a portion of the keeper 14b into engagement with that crate to prevent it dropping free from the carriage. The lifter also has rollers 6, 7 (eg wheels or castors) at a base of the mast that enable the lifter to be moved from one location to another.
