  • Gas Forklift Truck Hire

    LPG Powered Couterbalance Material Handlers

    Gas forklift truck hire offers you versatility and exceptional performance for material handling and lifting heavy loads. You can use counterbalance forklifts for a broad range of indoor and outdoor applications on reasonably flat terrain, so they are perfect for workzones with buildings and yards.

    You can use a forklift truck to move materials over short distances. They are useful for various jobs because they are so versatile and practical. Forklifts are compact and have rear-wheel steering, which means an operator can take advantage of their maneuverability in small spaces and around tight corners. A forked platform is usually at the front or back of the vehicle, and allow for insertion under cargo or loads. You can raise and lower the platform using a hydraulic system, allowing you to move items in a safe and steady way.

    LPG machines have lower upfront costs, as they do not require recharging equipment or batteries. Just just need to have another gas canister, which takes just a few minutes to swap, reducing downtime. Gas forklifts can match the power of electric and diesel machines, due to their power to weight ratio and responsive engines. You will find that they can carry considerable loads at a faster rate, for longer.

    We offer 1600kg, 1800kg, and 2000kg, 2500kg, 3000kg, 3500kg, and 4000kg capacity machines with 4.7-metre masts and 1.2-metre or 1.8-metre forks available. If you need a jib, a cabin, or non-marking tyres for the area you are working, you can add them to your order during checkout.

From 1st April 2022, our suppliers will only fuel machines with white diesel. This is due to new government guidelines.

If you, as the hirer, refuel any equipment while it is in your possession, it must be with WHITE DIESEL.

YOU MUST NOT USE RED DIESEL IN HIRED MACHINES OR EQUIPMENT.

If you return a machine refuelled with rebated diesel, suppliers will have to remove and dispose of the fuel. They must also flush the tank and supply lines before they can refuel them. The process is chargeable, with no exceptions.

An insurance charge will be calculated at checkout. If you have proof of your own Hired-In Plant Insurance (HIPI) and wish to opt-out of the insurance charge, you can do so by booking via Live Chat.
