Verifying Hours and Service History

Hours can be misleading; service history is key. Always confirm that the seller provides a detailed service log that correlates with the machine’s recorded operating hours. Boyer Equipment provides this crucial documentation transparently, guaranteeing you know exactly what you are purchasing.

Matching Lifting Capacity to Your Business Needs

Your used forklift must match your daily operational load. Therefore, we categorize our inventory by capacity to ensure you find a reliable machine that meets your demands.

Versatile 7K & 8K Forklifts (Perfect for General Use)

Units in the 7,000 to 8,000 lb capacity range are the versatile workhorses of most industrial settings. These pre-owned forklifts are ideal for general warehouse tasks, loading docks, and smaller construction sites where agility is key.

Heavy-Duty 10K+ Forklifts (The Powerhouse)

However, for heavy industrial operations, moving containers, or handling large construction materials, you need a machine in the 10,000 lb lifting capacity class or higher. These powerhouses are built for continuous, high-intensity lifting and feature robust construction.

Choosing Your Power Source: Propane vs. Diesel

The environment where your forklift operates dictates the ideal power source. Propane-powered forklifts are suitable for indoor/outdoor use, while diesel-powered forklifts offer maximum torque for rough terrain applications.
