Frequently asked questions
When should I choose 5 ton over 3 ton?
When your heaviest item is above what a 3 ton forklift can carry at its real load centre, or when loads are long or bulky.
What forklift sizes do you rent?
3, 5, 7, 10 and 16 ton forklifts, delivered and collected on our trucks across all seven emirates.
What capacity forklift do I need?
Choose on the heaviest load, how high it must be lifted and where its centre of gravity sits. As a rough guide, 3 ton suits standard pallets; 10 and 16 ton suit steel and heavy industrial loads. Send the details and we confirm.
