Redondo Beach, CA
Used Forklift Buyers in Redondo Beach, CA
We are the buyer, not the middleman. That distinction is the whole reason this page exists. We work Redondo Beach, CA regularly and combine it with stops in Torrance and Hawthorne, which is why we can be competitive on a single unit instead of only on fleets. Tell us the make, model, year, hours, fuel type, capacity, and mast, send a few photos, and you will have a firm number the same day in most cases. The port and container terminal work here produces exactly the kind of trucks our buyers want.
Monday – Saturday, 7:00 AM – 7:00 PM ET · No fees, no commissions, free pickup.

Every type of lift truck, Redondo Beach included
Our scope is forklifts and the material handling equipment that lives beside them — nothing else. In Redondo Beach and Los Angeles County that means ic pneumatic, lp / propane, sit-down rider, order picker, narrow aisle, telehandler, plus electric pallet jacks, walkie stackers, order pickers, and telehandlers. If it lifts pallets, we are interested.
We buy every major nameplate: Kalmar, Toyota, TCM, Combilift, Genie, Raymond, Bobcat, Doosan, 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 Redondo Beach are 10,000 lb, 8,000 lb, 30,000 lb, 15,000 lb. Searches like "second hand forklift buyers" and "sell used forklift" 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) 740-1983What happens after you call us from Redondo Beach
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 Redondo Beach.
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 We do not quote high to win the call and then re-negotiate at the dock.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 Redondo Beach that usually means a pickup window within a few business days, since we already run this corridor.

What your forklift is worth in Redondo Beach
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.
Getting it out of your building in Redondo Beach
We cover Redondo Beach and roughly 71 miles around it, including Torrance, Hawthorne, Gardena, Carson. 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.
Single units and small lots get scheduled around your operation, including after-hours and weekend loading when a plant cannot give up the dock during production.

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 |

Questions
Redondo Beach, CA forklift questions, answered
- Do you buy pallet jacks and other material handling equipment in Redondo Beach?
- Yes, within our lane: electric pallet jacks, walkie stackers, reach trucks, order pickers, telehandlers, and forklift attachments. We are forklift specialists and we do not buy outside material handling.
- Is there any obligation once I get an offer in Redondo Beach?
- None. The offer is yours to take or leave, there is no fee for the quote, and we will not badger you afterward. If our number is not the best one you find in Redondo Beach, take the better one.
- Do you buy Big Joe forklifts in Redondo Beach?
- Yes — Big Joe and every other major nameplate, including Toyota, Hyster, Yale, Crown, Raymond, Clark, Komatsu, CAT, Mitsubishi, and Doosan. Big Joe specialises in walk-behind stackers and pallet trucks for smaller operations. Best value comes when several units go together.
- Do you buy forklifts in Redondo Beach that do not run?
- Yes. Non-running, seized, flood-damaged, and stripped units are a routine purchase. The mast, counterweight, transmission, hydraulics, and steel all hold value, so a dead forklift in Redondo Beach is still worth a real number rather than a disposal fee.
- What areas around Redondo Beach do you cover?
- Redondo Beach plus the surrounding West corridor, including Torrance, Hawthorne, Gardena, Carson. If your location is not listed, call (954) 740-1983 — we route nationwide and almost certainly cover you.

- At pickup, when the truck is loaded — not net-30 and not on a check that clears next month. The amount is exactly what we quoted, with nothing withheld for freight, rigging, or fees.
- What information do you need to quote a forklift in Redondo Beach?
- Make, model, year, hour meter reading, fuel type, lift capacity, mast type, and honest condition notes, plus photos of the four corners, the lowered mast, the data plate, and the hour meter. That is enough to price it accurately without a site visit.
- Can you buy a walkie stacker forklift in Redondo Beach?
- Yes. A walk-behind stacker bridges the gap between a pallet jack and a full counterbalance forklift. We buy them in Redondo Beach at every grade, from turn-key to non-running, in the 2,000 – 4,000 lb range.
