Sell your Gas Forklift$2,500$16,000 cash

Gasoline forklifts are less common than LP or diesel in current fleets, which narrows the buyer pool somewhat. A clean, low-hour gas truck still brings a fair cash number, particularly in agricultural and seasonal operations.

What drives the value of a gasoline

Smaller market than LP. Low hours and a cold-start video help a lot.

Because we resell into the used forklift market rather than scrapping usable machines, we can pay more for a gasoline that is genuinely serviceable. That also means we ask more questions than a scrap buyer would. The hour meter tells us the wear story, the mast and carriage tell us what it will cost to make the truck ready, and the data plate confirms capacity at the actual lift height rather than the marketing figure.

Brands we buy in this class

We buy every major nameplate and plenty of minor ones. Parts availability affects resale, so mainstream brands generally price stronger, but we still make offers on orphaned makes.

Questions

Gas Forklift questions

How much is a used gas forklift worth?
Most gas forklift units we buy land between $2,500 and $16,000. Smaller market than LP. Low hours and a cold-start video help a lot. The spread inside that band comes down to hour meter, mast and carriage condition, tires, and whether the machine starts and lifts under load on the day we inspect it.
Do you buy a gasoline that does not run?
Yes. A non-running gasoline still carries value in its mast, hydraulics, drive components, counterweight, and steel. The offer is lower than a running unit but it is a real cash number, and we still handle rigging and haul-off at our expense. Tell us plainly what it does and does not do and the offer will hold at pickup.
What information do you need to price a gasoline?
Make, model, year, hour meter reading, gasoline details, lift capacity, mast configuration, and photos of the four corners plus the data plate. For this class we also want to know engine hours, any transmission slip, and hydraulic leak history.
Where do you buy gas forklift units?
Every state. We arrange rigging and transport nationwide at our cost, and we are based in Dania Beach, Florida, so South Florida pickups often happen within days. Call (954) 740-1983 and we will tell you exactly what our schedule looks like for your area.
Do I need to load the gasoline myself?
No. Renting a machine to load a machine makes no sense, and we do not ask sellers to do it. Our transport handles the load. You need to give us safe access and, if the site requires it, a point of contact for dock or gate scheduling.
Can you buy several gasoline units at once?
That is our preference. Multiple units in one pickup lowers our transport cost per machine, which means a stronger number per unit for you. Send a simple list with model, year, and hours for each and we will price the group.
