Real-world aerial lift prices from BuyerZone buyers

We regularly survey BuyerZone users to ask how their purchases went. We've used their responses to provide a sampling of actual prices paid for aerial lifts.

Size is the most important factor in determining how much you'll pay for your aerial lift. Platform height is the top priority, but platform size and lifting capacity also factor in. A simple rule of thumb is that the more you want to lift and the higher you want to lift it, the more you can expect to pay.

Reconditioned aerial lifts are a popular choice for BuyerZone users. You can save quite a bit of money on your initial purchase by opting for a used unit, but do make sure that the dealer stands behind it enough to give you a 30-day warranty at a minimum.
