Budget Forktrucks offers brand-new and high-quality pre-owned Sideloader Forklift Trucks and Multidirectional Forklift Trucks for hire and for sale. Both machines are primarily Counterbalance Forklift Trucks that are designed for the easy transportation of long, awkward or bulky loads, such as pipes, steel beams, timber and large sheets of materials.
Budget Forktrucks offers brand-new and high-quality pre-owned Sideloader Forklift Trucks and Multidirectional Forklift Trucks for:
Short-term hire: to cover flexible hire periods starting from just one week. Choose two weeks, a month, several months, or even longer – whatever suits your needs. Ideal for keeping operations running smoothly without any long-term commitment.
Long-term asset hire/lease: provides top-tier machinery over periods of 3 to 7 years with low, fixed rates. Perfect for long-term growth, with none of the costs or complications of ownership. Every agreement includes a maintenance contract, ensuring peak performance throughout the term.
Outright purchase: can be ideal option for businesses with consistent, regular usage patterns. Acquire ownership for maximum flexibility and the lowest total cost of ownership. Our in-house finance team offers a range of flexible finance plans to help you buy the asset you need.
Choose the acquisition strategy that fits your needs. Whether you’re looking to hire or ready to buy, we have the solution for you. Budget’s Sideloader and Multidirectional Forklift Trucks deliver the reliability and performance you need to tackle even the toughest jobs with confidence.
These highly versatile and specialist forklifts lift their load sideways, such that the load is typically carried to the operators’ side, rather than in front of them as with Counterbalance Forklift Trucks.
Sideloader Forklift Trucks travel forwards and backwards only, with the load staying parallel to the direction of travel.
Multidirectional Forklift Trucks benefit from having steering systems that provide for seamless 360° manoeuvrability. This provides the ability to glide in all directions including forward, backwards, and to crab sideways. This flexibility allows them to navigate narrow aisles and handle complex manoeuvres with ease.
Engineered with a selection of wheel sizes, both Sideloader and Multidirectional Forklift Trucks are engineered to operate across uneven outdoor environments and in warehouses and distribution centres. They can lift loads of 2,500 kgs to 25,000 kgs up to heights of 6 metres. Robust performance is delivered from a choice of electric motors or LPG and diesel engines.
We stock machines from industry-leading brands like Combilift that are perfect for businesses of any size and budget. Budget Forktrucks are proud to be authorised dealers for Combilift, a global leader in material handling equipment.
