What Forklift Do You Need?
Thinking about these factors will help you find the right forklift for your operation. Not sure? Contact JNW and we'll help you decide.
Load Weight
How heavy are the loads you need to lift? This determines the capacity you'll need.
Lift Height
How high do you need to lift? Mast height is critical for racking and shelving operations.
Indoor or Outdoor
Electric forklifts suit indoor warehouse use; diesel and LPG handle outdoor and heavy-duty work.
Available Space
Tight aisles may need a reach truck or narrow-aisle forklift rather than a counterbalance.
Working Environment
Consider floor surfaces, ramps, dust, moisture, and any noise or emissions restrictions.
Operating Hours
How many hours per day will the forklift run? This affects fuel type and battery capacity needs.
Fuel / Power Preference
Electric, diesel, or LPG — each has strengths depending on your site and usage pattern.
