Considering purchasing a forklift? Find the ideal machine for your logistics
An important aspect we take into account in our advice is the intensity of your use. Is the forklift only needed occasionally, or do your colleagues work continuously in multiple shifts? That makes quite a difference to the type of forklift we recommend. In any case, you can rely on brands such as Toyota and CESAB. We have many reliable used machines from these brands in our range. Our advisers will tell you exactly what the differences are and which machine will really help your logistics process. Of course, safety, ergonomics and long-term maintenance costs are paramount.
Used forklifts: Reliability with experience
Sometimes, a machine straight from the factory may not even be necessary. Or perhaps you don’t want to use up too much of your working capital. In that case, we will be happy to advise you on which used forklift of guaranteed quality suits your situation. At Prins, we have our own workshops in Maasdijk and Tilburg. There, our used machines are rigorously inspected from a technical perspective. This means you can be sure that the machine meets the applicable standards for safety and usability.
When you buy a used machine from Prins, you know exactly what you are getting. The complete history is known. This allows you to scale up with a good used machine. The best thing is that all our used machines are available directly from stock. Do you need a forklift quickly? Then we are here for you. We aim to respond quickly to increase your capacity. Naturally, with the service and warranty you would expect from a professional partner.
Smart moves
Rent a forklift
Do you only need extra capacity during peak periods? We can help you with that too. Rent a forklift that suits your needs from Prins and you can get started right away. Whether you want to rent a machine for one day or 100 months, we will work with you to find the right solution. Our advisors will be happy to tell you more about the options. You can contact us for both short and long-term rentals.
Leasing a forklift
Purchasing a machine requires an investment. But perhaps you would rather not dip into your working capital. Even then, Prins has options for you. You can lease any type of forklift from us. From full operational leases to financial leases: together, we will find the lease option that best suits your situation. So that you know exactly where you stand for a fixed monthly amount.
Trade in your forklift?
Is it time to replace your current forklift? Then we would be happy to take over the machine you are currently working with. The mechanics in our own workshops will then completely overhaul it and we will add it to our second-hand fleet. This way, you will receive a refund for your used machine and together we will be working in an even more sustainable way.
Diesel, LPG or switching to electric?
The debate between fossil fuels and electric batteries has been going on for some time in the material handling market. Electric drive is booming, although diesel and LPG forklifts remain the standard for heavy-duty outdoor use. Not sure which option to choose? We are happy to advise you. We will take your infrastructure and hours of use as a starting point. With diesel, you are choosing unprecedented power for heavy work, while with LPG, you are choosing consistent performance and quick refuelling. But to be fair, electric forklifts have many advantages.
Take the modern electric forklifts from Toyota and CESAB as an example. They have zero emissions, are quieter in use and have lower operating costs because they require virtually no engine maintenance. Let our experienced advisors calculate the “Total Cost of Ownership” together with you. Then you will know when electric forklifts become profitable for your specific situation. We think ahead, so that you are ready for tomorrow.
Service, maintenance and safety inspections
Even after delivery, we remain involved with your company and forklifts. Preventive maintenance is the key to a long-term profitable investment. That is why we have our own service department in Maasdijk and Tilburg. Here, we identify wear and tear in good time and replace parts before they break down. This prevents expensive repairs and unsafe situations in the workplace.
You know that you must comply with the annual safety inspection (VA inspection). Our certified inspectors are happy to take care of this for you. Let us take care of scheduling the inspections, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. And if you need urgent repairs, you can always contact us. The same applies to a maintenance contract, where we keep your machines in top condition. Our engineers are experienced professionals who are familiar with the digital systems of Toyota and CESAB. This ensures that every machine in your fleet performs optimally.
Forklift leasing: Flexibility in your business operations
You want to know where you stand financially, preferably with stable, predictable monthly costs. That is why we think along with you if you do not want to or cannot make a large investment immediately. Thanks to multiple lease options for our Toyota and CESAB forklifts, you will always find the ideal solution for your business. From operational lease to financial lease: everything is possible. Use your working capital for your core activities and lease the forklift that will help you further in the workplace with the best and most efficient technology.
Because we are there for you with leasing, you can respond flexibly to growth or seasonal influences. And all that for a fixed monthly amount, completely clear and transparent. Would you also like to include maintenance in the lease contract (Full Service Lease)? Then we will arrange that. As a true partner, we ensure that you always have a modern fleet at your disposal. This allows you to handle all future developments in your business. Together, we will look at the type of contract that best suits your balance sheet and your growth plans for the future.
