Colorado Springs, CO
Forklift Fleet Liquidation Serving Colorado Springs and Colorado
Multi-unit lots are where we are most competitive, because one trip covers all of them. Between the manufacturing and fabrication in and around Colorado Springs and the fact that this is a mid-size metro with a deep industrial base, there is no shortage of lift trucks reaching the end of their service life here. We buy them outright. No consignment, no commission, no waiting for someone else's financing to clear.
Monday – Saturday, 7:00 AM – 7:00 PM ET · No fees, no commissions, free pickup.

The forklifts we take in Colorado Springs
Our scope is forklifts and the material handling equipment that lives beside them — nothing else. In Colorado Springs and El Paso County that means reach truck, diesel, attachments, cushion tire, narrow aisle, stand-up rider, plus electric pallet jacks, walkie stackers, order pickers, and telehandlers. If it lifts pallets, we are interested.
We buy every major nameplate: Caterpillar, Daewoo, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, Yale, Other & Unlisted Brands, Hoist, Big Joe, and the rest. Brand matters to the offer, but far less than hours, mast condition, and whether the truck runs. A high-hour Toyota with a tired mast can be worth less than a low-hour Doosan that has been maintained.
Capacity range runs from 2,000 lb walkies up through 40,000 lb+ container handlers. The classes we see most often in Colorado Springs are 15,000 lb, 4,000 lb, 6,000 lb, 50,000 lb and up. Searches like "sell entire forklift fleet" and "liquidate forklift fleet fast" all land in the same place: send the specs, get a number.
Have the make, model, and hours handy? One call is usually all it takes.
(954) 740-1983How selling a forklift in Colorado Springs actually works
First, the specs. Make, model, year, hour meter, fuel type, capacity, and mast configuration. Then photos: all four corners, the mast fully lowered, the data plate, and the hour meter. That is genuinely all we need to price a truck in Colorado Springs.
Second, the offer. We price against live wholesale, export, and auction comparables rather than a rule of thumb, and you get a firm number in writing inside 24 hours — usually the same business day if you reach us during working hours. The offer is firm. We do not quote high to win the call and then re-negotiate at the dock.
Third, pickup and payment. We schedule transport at our cost, our driver loads it, and you are paid at the time of pickup. For Colorado Springs that usually means a pickup window within a few business days, since we already run this corridor.

Where the number comes from
Five things move the number, in roughly this order: hour meter, mast and carriage condition, powertrain health, tires, and attachments. On electrics, battery age and capacity replace powertrain — a truck needing a new lead-acid pack can be several thousand dollars behind an identical unit with a healthy, recently load-tested battery.
We grade A through D and we say the grade out loud. Grade A is starts cold, lifts and tilts to full height under load, no active hydraulic leaks, tires and mast in good order, hour meter working and consistent with the machine's appearance. Grade D still gets an offer, because core, component, and scrap value is not the same as worthless.
Nobody can quote a forklift accurately from a city name alone, and any site that gives you a firm price before seeing the machine is guessing. What we will commit to is the range in the table on this page, a real number within 24 hours of seeing your specs, and no reduction of that number at pickup. Call (954) 740-1983 and we will walk through your truck.
How removal works in Colorado Springs
We cover Colorado Springs and roughly 66 miles around it, including Castle Rock, Pueblo, Parker, Centennial. Freight is on us. You do not rent a lift to load a lift, and you do not chase a driver who never shows.
Access is the only thing we need to know in advance. Tell us whether the truck rolls or has to be dragged, whether it is on a dock or on a slab, whether the ceiling clears a mast, and whether there is room for a 48-foot trailer. Non-running units are routine — we bring winches for exactly that.
Fleet lots get scheduled around your operation, including after-hours and weekend loading when a plant cannot give up the dock during production.
What it is worth

Condition grading
How we grade a forklift, A through D
Grade it honestly and the offer holds at pickup. We would rather quote a Grade C truck correctly than quote a Grade A number we have to walk back on your dock.
| Grade | Meaning | What It Looks Like | Effect On Offer |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | Ready to Work | Starts cold, lifts and tilts to full height under load, no active hydraulic leaks, tires and mast in good order, hour meter working and consistent with the machine's appearance. | Top of our range |
| B | Running, Needs Minor Work | Runs and lifts but has identifiable minor issues — a seeping cylinder, worn tires, tired battery, cosmetic damage, a non-functioning gauge, or deferred maintenance. | Moderate reduction from top |
| C | Runs Poorly or Lifts Poorly | Starts but runs rough, will not lift to full height, has a significant hydraulic or transmission fault, a failed battery pack, or unknown recent service history. | Substantial reduction |
| D | Non-Running, Scrap, or Incomplete | Will not start, seized engine or drive unit, major structural damage, stripped of components, sat outdoors for years, or already partially dismantled. | Core, component, and scrap value |
