Long and Short-Term Forklift Rental In Blackburn
Our forklift rental periods range from single-day hires to customised, long-term rentals of up to five years. Take advantage of our all-inclusive rental packages for both new and refurbished forklifts offer fixed-cost solutions, ensuring predictable expenses with no unexpected repair costs.
Advantages of Hiring Forklifts
For growing businesses, renting a forklift is often more cost-effective than buying, providing the benefit of fixed monthly payments without the need to lock up working capital in depreciating assets.
Our straightforward rental agreements align costs with the asset’s service life, allowing businesses to take advantage of capital and tax allowances. We recommend consulting a qualified accountant to optimise financial arrangements, take full advantage of tax benefits, and improve cash flow.
Renting also offers critical flexibility in managing peak periods or unexpected surges in workload, adding the capacity to handle increased goods movement as needed.
Pre-Rental Safety
Every forklift in our rental fleet undergoes regular inspections, preventative maintenance, and routine servicing. Premier Lift Trucks provides a comprehensive range of the latest forklift models and equipment, fully compliant with Health & Safety Executive (HSE) standards.
If your company is new to forklift operations or uses them occasionally, we advise proper training for drivers, whether initial or refresher courses. Emphasising workplace safety, we recommend bright or reflective vests for visibility, adhering to weight and height limits on pallets, and maintaining a safety-conscious approach to forklift use.
