The forklift is an essential piece of equipment in the cargo handling industry. A forklift can be simple or it can be very high tech. In general the newer forklifts are full of technology and with that comes complexity. For our overseas export buyers we recommend keeping it as simple as possible. Anything manufactured after 2005 is computerized, or electronic.

Lastly, but most importantly, budget and age of equipment.
All equipment has a general market price. You typically can’t buy a 2012 5,000lb Forklift for $7,000, but you can buy a 1990 5,000lb Forklift for $7,000. So decide how much you can spend on this equipment. We will work to place you in the right piece of equipment at the budget you determined. At Yellow Deck we can refurbish and service equipment. So sometimes an older forklift that has been refurbished is the right equipment at the right price.
The price range for used forklifts is based on year of manufacture, make, type and general condition. Everyone wants to get the best equipment for the lowest price, but setting a budget helps define what we can offer.
