The decision to purchase a forklift truck for your business should not be made lightly, and before making a purchase it is important to consider the requirements of your business, the amount of load, and the number of hours you will require your machine to work.
Both new and used forklift trucks have different advantages and weighing these up carefully before making a purchase can save time and money in the long term.
Before purchasing any truck it is important to ensure it will meet all your working requirements so consider the load to be lifted; the environment the machine is required to operate in; and how many hours it will be required to run.

However, whether purchasing a new or used forklift truck it is important you ask for a demonstration to ensure suitability. If you are still unsure or new to using a forklift truck consider hiring a forklift, before purchasing, to ensure you have selected the correct machine for the job.
Another important aspect to consider is the number of hours your truck will be used for, if you require the forklift to operate for long hours, you might consider purchasing a new forklift. And if you need the forklift occasionally or for short hours, a used forklift is the best option for you.
Search for reputable dealers, who are concerned with sourcing the right machine for your requirements, as well as those who offer a range of finance options and offering good warranty terms and check what they cover.
