A Pickup is the first tier of transport vehicles, being unlocked when starting the game. The Pickup can transport 20 units of the products at once. It can transport all items except the followings:
*{{infoicon|Exhaust}}
*{{infoicon|Steam Hi}}, {{infoicon|Steam Lo|text=Lo}}, {{infoicon|Steam Depleted|text=Depleted}}
*{{infoicon|Chilled Water|new=yes}}


After [[Truck]] is unlocked, the [[Truck]] is more effective than Pickup in most cases. But, even late-game the Pickup may be better than the [[Truck]] to deliver the product with small-scale production. For example, Microchips and Spent Fuel.
The '''Pickup''' is the first tier of transport vehicles, being unlocked when starting the game. The Pickup can transport 20 units of an item or fluid at once. It can transport all items except for a few:
* {{infoicon|Exhaust}}
* {{infoicon|SteamSp|text=Steam (Super)|link=Steam (Super)|new=yes}}, {{infoicon|SteamHp|text=Steam (High)|link=Steam (High)|new=yes}}, {{infoicon|Steam Lo}}, {{infoicon|Steam Depleted}}
* {{infoicon|WaterChilled|link=Chilled Water|text=Chilled Water|new=yes}}
* Probably others? Possibly nuclear related.
 
After the [[Truck]] is unlocked, the [[Truck]] is more effective than the '''Pickup''' in virtually all cases. The only case in which it might be useful is when you want to move tiny amounts of items around that are produced at low rates, but are far away enough from the destination to not be worth belting.
