Anyone have a nice forklift for sale ? Need one with pneumatic tires, 2 or 3 mast, side shift is not needed but won’t turn it down and propane. Or know someone that has one for sale ?

I have been looking as well, but it seems like they are few and far between or way overpriced right now.

It is very hard to find a used forklift in the southwest. I was canvasing Vegas, PHX and LA Metro. It took months to find one.

Called around just last week to a couple used forklift salesmen I know here in utah for buddy. Crazy the prices they are getting since I last bought 2-3 years or so. Same machine I bought then with 4 times the hours and they want a few K more.

Does @rivrrts429 sell Their used equipment or does his company just auction their old stuff.



Thanks bud. We do both but anything forklift is going to be tough to come by. I’m holding on to fleet because it’s difficult to get new. I’ve got new units arriving weekly that were ordered 10-12 months ago. Lead times are crazy far out.

Check out United Rentals they sell used, I got a great deal on a late night Toyota about a year ago delivered to me in Las Vegas very easy to work with.

It’s definitely hard to find a nice used one cheap right now. I was hoping to find a Private one that someone wasn’t using but those are even harder to find.

not sure I thought propane was the most popular to get
Battery are actually more popular than propane. There are two types, lead acid and lithium ion. I sell lithium ion version and they will outlast a propane lift

The old Champ and Eagle Pricher machines. I don’t miss those at all. They’d flip going down the highway and unfold like an accordion, an absolute yard sale lol

Most of them left the state years ago. The first round of Tier engine regulations all but banned them.

I have a dual fuel Toyota and gasoline most the time saves a ton of money and then switch to propane will be deep inside the warehouse.

if you want a lift "cheap" your gonna have to start going to auctions. like everything else, used prices have skyrocketed with forklifts.
