Why Rent a Forklift Instead of Buying or Leasing One?
Today's business climate has changed drastically over the past few years, forcing businesses to adapt to stay profitable and efficient during such volatile times. Forklifts are an essential tool for many industries. They are specially designed to lift and move materials. For businesses, it is necessary to match their costs with their revenues. Buying or leasing a forklift can prove to be heavy on your wallet. Plus, the added costs of regular maintenance and repairs can burden your bank account. Bringing in rented equipment during seasonal demand seems a wise decision. It also gives you the advantage of bringing in the latest, up-to-date technology at competitive prices. So, whether you are faced with seasonal peaks or varying production schedules, Westminster Lift Truck offers rental forklifts for the Greater Vancouver Area, the Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley, Northern B.C., and the Okanagan.

Factors to Consider When Renting a Forklift
When choosing a forklift in Abbotsford, it’s important to assess the operating environment and technical requirements. Westminster Lift Truck provides rental guidance based on usage and worksite factors.
Key rental considerations include:
-
Indoor vs. outdoor use: Electric forklifts are suited to indoor spaces, while diesel and propane are preferred outdoors.
-
Surface type: Pneumatic tires for rough terrain; cushion tires for smooth indoor flooring.
-
Load characteristics: Forklift rating must accommodate the heaviest loads expected.
-
Operating hours: Longer operating hours may require dual battery systems or high-capacity fuel tanks.
Our team aims to provide clear information to assist with equipment selection.
