Forklift Hire Manchester
For companies who require a forklift truck without the inconvenience of having to invest in a vehicle which they will use on an infrequent basis, there are plenty of companies operating in Manchester which hire out these machines for you to use for as long or short a time as you need. Companies can arrange a rental contract which best fits their forklift truck purposes.
Many companies also do not have someone to operate the vehicle, and such an individual can also be provided by the forklift rental company. The driver will be able to use any of the hired vehicles and can perform a variety of tasks. The speed in which Manchester forklift rental companies can send out a vehicle is impressive. If the company is having problems with their own machine, a replacement can be sent out on the same day so the company's operations are not too affected.
These hire companies also guarantee the trucks will be subject to maintenance on a regular basis, should they be hired out long term. There are also a variety of options for the customer. It is possible to rent out a forklift:
- On a day by day basis
- On a long term basis
- As and when they need, by paying a small monthly fee.
Types of Forklifts available for hire

- For jobs that require lifting heavy loads in a short amount of time, it is best to hire a Three/Four Wheel Counterbalance forklift which offers easy handling and can lift up to 4000kg in confined spaces
