Buying used forklifts have a few advantages over buying a new one. From being significantly cheaper than new forklifts, to being reliable, familiar, and quicker to purchase than a brand-new forklift. No matter which brand you choose to purchase from Southern Lift Trucks, you are buying the best lifting trucks for your business needs.
Did you know you can save money—long-term—by buying a used forklift?
Typically, a used forklift will cost several thousand dollars less than a new one. Or, in some cases, it’s only half the price. And so, in some instances, you can buy two used forklifts for the price of a new one.
The obvious benefit of this is you are able to double your workforce productivity. Additionally, if you spend less on procurement, it can allow you to lower your cost of sale while still managing to increase your profit margin.
Another advantage lies in reliability and familiarity. Reliability insomuch as you will know the forklift works. That is, brands only recall new models when a fault is found. Finding used forklifts for sale, let’s you know your vehicle will be not be recalled.
That, and when you buy used forklifts, your team will usually already be familiar with it. So, there is no need to spend money and time on forklift training. Also, there is no need to spend more money upgrading accessories, or other gear, to fit the new forklift.
The only real downside to purchasing a used one, is it may not have the latest bells and whistles of newer models. Which is rarely (if ever) going to impact your bottom line.
What will impact your bottom line is: used forklift equipment and parts are often cheaper than parts for new forklifts. And you can often find parts for older models at a discount.
Speaking of bottom line, it is usually faster to purchase a used forklift. Because there is less money involved in the sale of used equipment, it can mean a faster closing process for your purchase.
