BuyerZone user comments: forklift purchasing requirements

We presently have Crown Model #15SP48TT-S Order Pickers at the present and are looking for something similar. Looking to purchase one now and another in 60-90 days.

Need side-shift, would like automatic fork spread adjustment, preference for factory reconditioned lift truck.

Rider pallet material handler, electric or gas. PRIMARY CRITERIA is outside dimension of forks must be no wider than 25" (standard 27" is too wide). Prefer rent/lease... will consider purchase. Need ASAP in the Los Angeles area.

Forklift is for use in small warehouse, loading and offloading trucks, pallet racks. Indoor most of the time, with some outdoor use. do not want stand-on forklift. Top shelf on racks will be 14' thank you.

I need a quote to rent a forklift for (1) day, although a 1/2 is preferable. The jobsite is in the Roswell/Alpharetta area. Thanks!

5000# capacity, tilt, side-shift, compact or mid-size frame. Please quote both EE & EX. This is budgeted for next year as replacement for part of our aging fleet of trucks.

I will only use this machine to unload a truck once every two weeks. dont need anything fancy .just needs to work when needed.

It needs to go outside and remove stage material from a trailer then take it inside over an astroturf like floor.

I am looking for a reach truck that can operate in a narrow aisle to move pallets from warehouse racking.

Lift needs to put skids on racks as high as 20 to 22 feet. I am building a warehouse to store motorcycles, jet skis and snowmobiles. A three wheel towmotor would be better for narrow corridors between rows of racks. Not sure on additional options needed to handle high rack storage. Please advise. Thanks.

Would like 30,000lbs + , 45000 to 50000lbs would be preferable. Program did not offer this choice. Plan to use to move heavy machinery in factory environment. Used equipment fine, but needs to be in good, working condition. Diesel, LP, Dual-fuel okay. Any accessories or attachments would be considered for purchase, as well. Overhead clearance 20ft.

I need the attachment that can pick up multiple boxes at the same time. It looks like 2 large pieces of aluminum that are vertical and move horizontally to squeeze the boxes you are picking up.

Also need a long reach paper roll clamp with 4,800 lb. capacity and 10" to 60" range 360 degree rotation, prefer movable short arm.

We have a low usage requirement for a forklift. Looking to purchase and take delivery prior to end of the year.

We would like quotes on a JCB520 or something similar. This machine will be used for both indoor and outdoor loading on heavy and light plumbing materials.

Would like a price quote for a: 2001 toyota-7FGCU35 boxcar forklift and a 96-98yr mod. Hyster H-110XL and a H-80-XL forklift....thanks...

Needs to fit inside containers to unload goods. Also needs to be able to lift up to 20,000 lbs, but only a few feet off the ground. Will be used to move snow grooming vehicles around our yard in Lewiston, Maine. During all seasons of the year, in all conditions. An enclosed cabin would be best.

I am putting together a proposal for a client who will need at least two forklifts in their warehouse. The heaviest items weighs ~5k lbs, the highest reach point is 14', and the equipment will only be use indoors. No additional attachments will be needed.

I am looking for a forklift that can fit under a 8 foot door opening. Also needs to be able to handle use on stone drives. Any fuel type would be ok. I only have single phase electric at this location.

The fork lift will be needed for unloading and moving items that are found in an electrical warehouse. Most items should not be more than 1500 lbs. but could go over this limit.

This forklift will be used indoors so we will probably be interested in LP or electric. Need information and lease options as soon as possible.

Standard, 5,000 Lb, electric, warehouse lift trucks with 3 stage mast, full freelift, cushion tires, side shift, lights.

Not yet sure. This will be for a military installation. They state they need a forklift to handle tubes with an overall length of 297.8 inches and a weight of 28,000 pounds. I'm researching what is available, AND American-made. Thank you.

Looking for a 3.5ton and a 7ton forklift for internal and external use, 3 stage extend fork. Also looking for a toploader to move empty containers.

I am a granite fabricator with a new business. Seeking to purchase a used forklift to move stone slabs.
