tractor o remolcador (eléctrico)
Seguí buscando, y creo que encontré el aparato. En realidad no es una grúa, es un carrito eléctrico como los que llevan las maletas al avión.
Aca hay fotos de todo ese tipo de equipo para uso en el manejo de materiales en galpones, etc.

Tow trucks, tow tractors, tugs or spotter trucks, as they are variously known, are part of a broad family of small to medium-sized materials handling machines capable of moving weights of up to 80,000kg. They are used worldwide in cargo handling, warehouse distribution centres, product assembly lines, airports, construction sites and hospitals or in any application where a tight turning radius and quiet handling is required.
Tractor operation depends on the size of the machine with models ranging from pedestrian-operated tugs and tows to larger machines where the operator either sits or stands on a platform. Machines are fitted with either towbars or linkage systems for trailers and trolleys.

camión grúa/remolcador
Es otra opción. En la automotriz en la que trabajaba, usábamos el término "forklift" para "autoelevador" -vehículo que se usa para descargar los racks con piezas de los camiones, pero estos racks no son de gran tamaño o peso como para necesitar una grúa- y "tow motor" para "tiburón" -vehículo pequeño y ligero que transporta racks de menor tamaño y livianos. Estos dos últimos son los tipos de transportes utilizados para transportar los materiales a la línea de producción (esto lo aclaro por las otras opciones de traducción que fueron sugeridas). "Tow truck" se refiere a un camión con una grúa para remolcar vehículos a un taller por ejemplo, o en este contexto, para descargar grandes contenedores de un lado a otro. Adjunto en las referencias algunas fotos de tow truck para que tengas una idea. Saludos!
