Whether you’re expanding your fleet or replacing a single lift truck, we offer an extensive selection of used forklifts for sale from trusted names like Hyster® and Yale® across Ohio, West Virginia and Pennsylvania.
Find the Right Used Equipment
From high-capacity diesel forklifts for outdoor yards to compact electric models for narrow aisles, Burns Industrial Equipment carries used forklifts for nearly every application. We update our inventory regularly, with used electric forklifts, second-hand electric forklifts and preowned internal combustion models available at competitive prices.
If you need something specific and don’t see it in our current stock, our team can quickly locate the right used material handling equipment through our trusted network of partners.
Reasons to Buy Used Equipment
Purchasing used forklift trucks is a smart investment for companies looking to save money without sacrificing performance. With used equipment, you enjoy these benefits:
- Lower upfront costs: Used equipment offers significant savings compared to new models.
- Fast availability: All our used forklifts for sale are job-ready, so you can put them to work right away without long lead times.
- Ease of operation: Older forklift models often have a simpler design, making them easier for operators to use and maintain.
- Lower maintenance costs: The mechanical systems in used forklifts are familiar to most technicians, which keeps service straightforward and affordable.
- Wide selection: Manufacturers produce limited new models each year, so the used market provides a much broader range of options to match your unique warehouse or facility layout.
