Diesel Forklifts

Diesel forklifts have long been a trusted solution for heavy-duty applications. Known for their strength and ability to handle tough terrain, diesel trucks are ideal for outdoor yards, construction sites and large-scale logistics operations.

Used Diesel Forklifts in Stock

If your operation still relies on diesel, we may have used diesel forklifts in stock to to suit your needs. While our diesel stock is limited, we have models available with quick delivery – including recognised brands and high-capacity units.

That said, the industry is quickly moving towards greener alternatives. Lithium-powered electric forklifts now offer many of the same benefits as diesel, with no emissions, lower running costs and far less maintenance. If you’re considering upgrading or switching, our team can help you explore the latest lithium models that match your existing lifting capacity and duty cycle.

If you’re in the market for a long-term solution, we strongly recommend taking a look at our lithium-ion counterbalance forklifts. These trucks now rival used diesel forklifts in terms of power and offer zero emissions, quieter operation and significant fuel savings. They’re ideal for both indoor and outdoor use and are available for both long-term hire and purchase.
