Electric Lift Truck Hire in Leicester area

There are many advantages to hiring an electric forklift in the Leicester area. Not only are they better to use in closed spaces with low air circulation, but they also will cost less overall. Electric units require less maintenance and have a lower amount of downtime due to repairs. They will not use as much engine and coolant oil or filters and need fewer repairs overall.

If you want to hire electric fork trucks within the Leicester area, Angus Lift Trucks have a unit for your needs. Choosing between 3 and 4 wheel counterbalance electric options will depend on your usage and space.

The 3-wheel forklift units have a smaller wheelbase, making them perfect rentals for small indoor spaces with their smaller turning circle. Alternatively, 4-wheel items will have more stability and can carry larger loads than their smaller counterparts. Before making a decision, it will pay off to examine what your space allows and what your Leicester  project needs are.
