Electric Forklift Hire, UK

Our wide selection of electric forklifts, coupled with their environmental-friendliness, make these some of our most popular to hire out across the UK. That said, some drawbacks come with the use of electric forklifts. For example, the electric forklift will never run as long as the gas-powered forklift.

If you have a lot of work to do with your electric forklift, you’ll need to take breaks to charge the truck. Remember that electric forklifts are not operable while they are being charged.

If you’re interested in renting an Electric forklift for a project in the UK, we have many options to choose from. We offer 3 and 4-wheel counterbalance electric forklifts. With Angus Lift Trucks, you can hire electric forklifts within the UK for very reasonable prices. Contracts range from single-day rental to long-term contracts of up to seven years!

Hire Gas Fork Trucks 

Hiring gas lift trucks in the UK is a very popular option: gas forklifts are reasonably priced, economical to use, and high-powered. These forklifts are excellent hires for use in UK indoor and outdoor conditions, and most people consider them to be the best all-around performer.

At Angus Lift Trucks, our Gas forktrucks for hire are competitively priced across the UK and range in size from 1500kg to 8000kg.

Gas forklifts are generally extremely reliable, but if there are any breakdowns or maintenance required with your gas forklift, Angus Lift Trucks can help. Most costs associated with maintenance and service are included in your monthly payments. Our gas forklifts are available for hire from one day to seven years all across the UK.

Rent Diesel Forklift Trucks

Diesel Forklifts are best suited for outdoor use. Because diesel fuel doesn’t burn as clean as gas, diesel fuel can be extremely dangerous to inhale in indoor environments like warehouses. If you have an outdoor project in the UK, you may want to consider renting a diesel forklift. Diesel forklifts’ operating costs are less than gas forklifts, and diesel forklifts are the most powerful of all forklifts.

Diesel forklifts run the longest without refueling any of the lift trucks we have available for hire in the UK. In addition, diesel forklifts work excellently and at full power in inclement weather. Whether it’s a stormy day or a sunny, your project can still go on without a hitch with our diesel forklifts. If you want to hire diesel forklifts in the UK, look no further than Angus Lift Trucks. We have forklifts ranging from 1500kg to 7000kg available to rent immediately.
