While trying to find Forklifts in and around Londonderry bear in mind that a used forklift could have had several previous owners and therefore the likelihood of experiencing problems and breakdowns is increased. Therefore when purchasing a used forklift consider who will be responsible for its service and maintenance.

While investigating Forklifts in and around Londonderry take into account the physical restrictions of the areas in which a machine will have to operate. In particular consider any doorways through which your forklift will have to move. If your doorways are standard 1.8m (6ft) or 2.4m (8ft) high then you obviously wont be able to use a machine with a collapsed mast height of over 3m (10ft). Before making your selection make sure that all the doorways and openings that it will need to fit through have been measured.
