Forklifts

Buy industrial forklifts new from vendors Business owners can browse new forklift models for sale online, checking out detailed product specifications and reviews. Look at stats like horsepower, mechanical process, fuel source, and of course, price; contact the vendor to learn more.

I recommend:  The popular auto maker Toyota sells a line of forklifts and forklift type machines like pallet loaders. Web users can see price quotes from a number of different forklift manufacturers, including Toyota, at BuyerZone.

Research reconditioned or used forklifts for sale As with many products and vehicles in particular, forklifts are often refurbished or remanufactured at a 'factory shop' and resold at bargain prices. Check out online offers of used or refurbished models to see if you can bring down your cost without compromising quality.

I recommend:  Warehouse Rack offers a supply of reconditioned and used forklifts. Russel Equipment provides a search-ready inventory of many forklift models.

Consider 'forklift type' vehicles For smaller projects, you may be able to use vehicles like electric pallet jacks or skid steer loaders in place of a full-scale forklift. A skid steer with forklift attachments can be an efficient mover of palletized goods or even loose items if you're not planning on hefting materials beyond 2 or 3 feet high.

I recommend:  Blue Giant sells electric pallet jacks for warehouse solutions. If your job is outdoors, take a look at prices on skid steer loaders at B2B Exchange.
