Used Counterbalance Forklift Sales & Rental, UK

We offer a wide selection of used counterbalance forklift sales and hire in the UK, in areas like Leicester, Northampton, Birmingham, Nottingham, Warwick, Derby, West Midlands, and East Midlands. Before listing a second-hand counterbalance lift truck for sale or hire, we always perform a thorough inspection. We typically clean and service these forklifts and might perform additional maintenance like painting them.

If you want to rent or buy a used counterbalance forklift truck within the UK, take a look at our current inventory. New and used counterbalance trucks are added for sale and rental regularly.

Anhus hires and sells used counterbalance forklifts from manufacturers like CESAB, Toyota, and others. For instance, one of the models we currently have in our used inventory is a CESAB N318 forklift. It’s a three-wheel forklift with a 1200 kg capacity. This used or new counterbalance forklift is an ideal purchase for warehouses and similar applications due to its small turn radius and compact design.

If you want to rent or buy pre-owned counterbalance forklifts within the UK with four wheels, we currently have a Toyota 7FBMF16 in stock. It’s a small and highly maneuverable forklift with a capacity of 1600 kg. Its compact design is ideal for small distribution centres, and the four-wheel design provides you with more stability compared to a three-wheel forklift.

Take a look at our current inventory to see the used counterbalance MHE equipment currently available for sale and hire, as our stock changes regularly. Click on enquire if you have any questions about the models in stock or need help with selecting the right forklift truck for your needs.

CESAB Counterbalance Forklift Range (Sales & Hire)

With our CESAB counterbalance forklifts, you can feel confident that your forklift will drive smoothly, reliably carrying both your goods and operators.

Gas forklifts, or engine trucks, are best if you’re doing work outside. However, if you need something with more manoeuvrability, we also sell and hire electric three-wheel and four-wheel counterbalance forklifts.

Four-wheelers safely carry high-capacity loads in narrow areas. Meanwhile, three-wheelers offer the highest turn radius available. Regardless, you’re in the right place to find high-quality counterbalance forklift sales and hire in the UK.
