Forklift brands we buy
Brand does not decide whether we buy your forklift — it decides the number. Parts availability and buyer demand carry resale value, which is why a high-hour Toyota can outprice a low-hour machine from a make nobody stocks parts for.

Questions we get asked
All of them. Toyota, Hyster, Yale, Crown, Raymond, Caterpillar, Clark, Komatsu, Nissan and UniCarriers, Mitsubishi, Linde, Jungheinrich, Doosan, Hyundai, Taylor, Big Joe, Genie and SkyTrak. Brand affects the number but never whether we will buy it — obscure and orphaned brands still have core and steel value.
None. No inspection fee, no appraisal fee, no transport charge, no paperwork fee. If you accept our offer you are paid the full amount. If you decline, you owe nothing and we do not call you repeatedly.
Almost never. Repairs rarely return their cost at wholesale — a $2,800 transmission job might add $1,500 to the offer. Two exceptions are worth it: charge or replace a dead battery on an electric unit, and air up flat tires so the machine can be moved. Otherwise sell it as it sits and let us price the fault.
Include everything if you can. Tanks, spare forks, side shifters, fork positioners, clamps, rotators and man baskets all add to the offer. If you want to keep an attachment, say so before we quote so the number reflects the machine without it.
Yes — electric counterbalance trucks, reach trucks, order pickers, walkie stackers and rider pallet jacks. Battery condition drives the number heavily. A healthy pack with a matching charger can be worth more than the truck it sits in, so never scrap an electric unit without calling first.
