Forklifts for Rent in Qatar

What to consider when renting forklifts

Use this checklist when you compare offers for forklifts:

• Have the key figures ready. For forklifts, suppliers will ask about rated lifting capacity and max lift height before they can price the hire.
• Forklifts are usually hired without an operator unless the listing says otherwise; if your crew is not qualified to run one, ask for an operator with the machine.
• Ask for the current inspection certificate of the lifting equipment and the certification of the operator and rigger before the machine is mobilised.
• Confirm the minimum rental period, the daily, weekly or monthly rate, and what happens when the machine stands idle on site.
• Check what the rate includes: fuel, operator, insurance, consumables and the supplier's breakdown response.

Choosing the right forklift size

Forklifts are usually specified by rated lifting capacity. On Arabian Tool you can browse these classes: 2-ton, 3-ton, 7-ton, 10-ton and 16-ton.

Rated capacity applies at a stated load centre and lift height. With attachments, a tall mast or an off-centre load the usable capacity is lower, so check the data plate against your heaviest pallet.

If you prefer a particular make, these have dedicated pages: Hyundai, Hyster, Linde and Yale. Standardising on one brand can simplify parts and operator training.

What affects the price of renting forklifts

Quotes for forklifts differ from supplier to supplier. These are the factors that move the price:

• Operator and fuel: check whether the rate is for the machine alone or includes an operator, fuel and overtime.
• Machine size and age: larger, newer or better-equipped machines are priced higher.
• Availability: rates can move with demand, so the same machine may be quoted differently at different times of year.
