Should You Buy or Lease?
If your business relies heavily on material handling equipment, the decision of whether to buy or lease forklifts is not always easy. Take the time to research your options. If you’re still undecided, the experts at Royal Forklift will help you assess your needs.
When to Lease
Leasing forklifts are an excellent option for businesses that can’t afford expensive material handling equipment or only need it for a short- or medium-term project.
Leasing also gives you an opportunity to try different brands and models until you find a forklift that fits your unique needs. You’ll have access to the latest products and forklift technology. And you won’t have to worry about the technology becoming obsolete; you’ll be able to lease a new one at the end of your contract.
Some purchasing managers prefer leasing forklifts because they don’t have the budget for maintenance and repair costs. These expenses are typically already included in the lease. And, if you don’t want to hassle with reselling a forklift when it’s time to buy a new one, leasing is a great solution.
If your equipment need is seasonal or short-term, Royal Forklift also offers a variety of makes and models of forklifts, aerial equipment, sweepers/scrubbers, and loaders that are available to rent on short notice, whenever you need them.
The majority of our forklift rentals are brand new UniCarriers that range from one to five years old. Whether your needs are for daily, weekly, monthly, or longer-term rentals, we offer competitive rates and prompt service.
When to Buy
If you use your forklift(s) heavily, there are cost advantages to buying a forklift. Some leases, for example, restrict the number of hours you can use the equipment. Also, instead of having to return the forklift in a certain condition, owning the equipment means you won’t have to worry about superficial damage.
If your business is large enough to have a fleet of equipment, owning your own forklifts will give you greater flexibility. You’ll save time (and money) when you don’t have to wait for a third party to deliver the lift trucks you need.
