Forklifts for hire in Auckland

Frequently asked questions

What forklifts do you have for hire?

We hire standard forklifts in 1.8T, 3T and 6T capacities, plus 2.5T and 3.5T 4WD rough-terrain forklifts. A forklift lifting jib is also available.

Do I need a licence or certificate to operate a forklift?

Operators should hold a forklift operator's certificate (OSH certificate), and an F endorsement on your driver licence is required to drive a forklift on the road. If you're unsure what applies to your situation, our team can advise.

When should I choose a 4WD forklift?

The 2.5T and 3.5T 4WD forklifts are built for rough or unsealed ground, making them the right choice for construction sites and yards where a standard forklift would struggle. For warehouse and hardstand work, the standard 1.8T to 6T machines are ideal.

Can I hire a lifting jib with the forklift?

Yes, we have a forklift lifting jib available for slinging loads. Let us know what you're lifting and we'll make sure you get the right setup.

Can I hire a forklift long-term?

Yes, we offer daily, weekly and long-term forklift hire with flexible terms. Long-term rental is popular with warehouses and yards that need extra capacity without buying a machine.

Can you deliver a forklift to my site?

Yes, we deliver Auckland-wide with our own transport trucks, with same day or next day transport available. Pickup from our Mangere yard is also an option.
