Overview

Forklift Rentals in Northeast Ohio

Akron Forklifts rents forklifts by the day, week or month across Northeast Ohio, including Cuyahoga County. Renting is often the smarter choice. It fits seasonal peaks, projects with an end date, and covering a truck that is down. It also lets you try a class of equipment before you spend capital on it. We rent electric and internal-combustion trucks and deliver them to your building. We will also tell you when buying makes more sense than renting. Past a certain rental length, it usually does.

  • No capital tied up and no resale risk
  • Cover a peak without paying for the truck year-round
  • Try a class of equipment in your building before buying
  • Keep running when a fleet truck is in for repair

How it works

The process

1

Tell us the job

Tell us the load, aisle width, lift height, indoor or outdoor use, and how long you need the truck. Rentals go wrong most often when the truck is sized for the average load, not the heaviest one.

2

Availability and quote

We confirm what is available for your dates. We quote the term, delivery and pickup up front.

3

Delivery

We deliver the truck to your building. The handover covers the controls and daily checks.

Straight answers

Forklift Rentals questions

1

How short can a forklift rental be?

A forklift rental can be as short as one day. Short rentals are common for one-off deliveries, a container unload or an equipment move.

2

At what point should I buy instead?

Buying usually makes more sense once you rent the same class of truck nonstop for most of a year. The exact point depends on the rate and the truck. We will tell you when your usage crosses that line.

3

Do you rent forklifts in Cleveland?

Yes. Akron Forklifts rents forklifts in Cuyahoga County, including Cleveland, as well as the Akron–Canton area. In Cuyahoga County we sell used trucks only, but rentals, service and training are all available.

4

Can I rent an attachment?

Often, yes, depending on availability. Clamps, rotators, side-shifters and fork positioners are common. Tell us what you are handling, not which attachment you think you need. We will confirm the right one.
