3. New diesel forklifts or Second-hand diesel?

 

When deciding to buy a new diesel forklift or a used forklift, you need to consider many factors such as investment costs, depreciation costs, operating costs, ability to meet the job...... When investing in a second-hand diesel forklift, you will save a large amount of initial investment compared to buying a new forklift. Meanwhile, used forklifts are often available at the warehouse and ready to deliver without the long waiting time for trucks to be imported as when buying a new vehicle. In addition, you can also run a test before deciding whether to buy that used car or not.

 

However, you will have to accept the risk of spare parts and other parts of the trucks as you cannot 100% control whether or not the old forklift has had any operational problems or how many times it has been repaired.

4. Investment comparison

 

In general, each type of forklift truck of different brands will have different advantages and disadvantages. After determining the user requirement and the truck's specifications, you need to move on to the step of comparing/evaluating investment costs before coming to a buying decision. Optimizing cost and performance is something forklift investors always heading towards.

Comparison and assessment of investment costs need to take into account the correlation between investment costs and the value brought. Because the price is expensive or cheap depending on this correlation. A second-hand diesel forklift has a low cost but also brings low performance such as: frequent breakdowns, low operating capacity, high fuel consumption, etc., the investment cost is high or can be said to be expensive.

 

In contrast, a new diesel forklift has a high cost but brings a very high performance : stable operation, high capacity, fuel saving, warranty service, dedicated maintenance ... then the investment becomes low or can be said to be cheap.

 

Nowadays, Yale forklifts is the most mentioned brand because of its high economic efficiency but still ensures performance when compared to other diesel forklift products in the same price segment.

 

5. Waranty Policy, Repairs & Maintenance

 

This is the criterion that customers pay the most attention to because it will directly affect the quality of work later when the car encounters problems. You need to carefully consider what services the company's warranty policy will cover and whether the company directly distributes equipment and genuine spare parts for the warranty or not?
