A force sensing carriage for a load carrying vehicle with lift capability has a first carriage component, a second carriage component and at least one bladder filled with a fluid at a predetermined pressure positioned between the second carriage component and the first carriage component. The first carriage component is configured for mounting to the load carrying vehicle. The second carriage component is for contacting a load to be moved and is positionable in alignment with the first carriage component. The bladder at least partially supports the second carriage component in an operating position in which a portion of the second carriage component is spaced away from the first carriage component. Forces exerted on the bladder by the second carriage component increase pressure in the bladder. An indicator circuit with an indicator indicates a warning if a predetermined threshold pressure is exceeded.
