There are two basic types of forklifts, models that run on gas and models which run on electricity:



Internal Combustion Lift trucks: The Internal Combustion Forklifts run on gas, liquid propane, CNG or compressed natural gas or diesel. The gas powered models are meant to be utilized outdoors as they produce pollutants and gases that can be dangerous if inhaled. Models which run on gasoline are also suitable to be utilized in the rain and in bad climate. These models could carry weights roughly 15,000 to 35,000 pounds. Because of the fuel expenses and maintenance, the gas powered models are more expensive to utilize than the electric units, although, they cost a lot less up front compared to electric powered units. Models which run on liquid propane are the best option to be used indoors.



Electric Lift Trucks: Electric lift trucks take batteries that need frequent charging. As these models do not burn any fuel, there are no emissions polluting the air with these equipments. They are the best alternative for indoor use and warehouses. In addition, electric lift trucks are a lot quieter to run than other units and they do not require any fuel storage units. Amongst the downsides of electric powered units is that they can not lift cargo more than 15,000 pounds and thus, have a slower acceleration compared to gasoline powered models.



Forklifts are specifically made to quickly and easily move heavy cargo with ease. Like the case with nearly all types of machinery, unfortunately, lift truck mishaps do happen regularly. There are some safety rules that must be followed to be able to keep everyone safe. The most essential issue is recruiting a trained operator, who will be able to show you a valid lift truck license.



On the market nowadays, there are many different types of forklifts available. Choosing which one is best for your specific needs will be based on the types of loads that you need to transport, what kind of environment your machine will need to operate in, like for instance, indoors or outdoors or both. When you understand your specific needs, it will be very easy to match up to the best type of forklift. When you understand your requirements exactly you could make a correct choice.



Leasing is one more good way to try out different units if you want to check out different features and see what type of choices are available. This is a less expensive way to know if the machinery you have chosen could keep up with you on the job location.
