does stapler really mean forklift, and lager really mean storage, in german?

"Stapler" means "stacker" and "forklift" means "Gabelstapler" which is "forkstacker", but it's abbreviated here. And yes, "Lager" is storage :)

and lager really mean storage

Yes, but can also mean a camp, a type of beer, a resource deposit or a ball bearing (and probably more).

I think in this case I would translate “Lager” as “warehouse”
