Materials handling equipment manufacturer Jungheinrich has announced a £6 million investment in the extensive fleet of fork lift trucks and other handling products that it offers for short term rental.

Jungheinrich believes that its short-term rental fleet is stocked with the newest and most up to date equipment on the market.

Neil Warren, Jungheinrich UK Ltd’s Used Equipment and Short Term Rental Director, commented: “We have what we believe is the youngest fleet of short-term rental fork lifts available. And because our short-term rental trucks are, on average, less than two years old, our clients get state-of-the-art equipment that not only looks good but is energy efficient and highly reliable – not a truck that has been out on contract hire for five years and comes with five years’ worth of problems!”

Trucks from the Jungheinrich’s entire range, from pallet handlers to state-of-the-art high lift reach trucks, are available on short-term rental and models can usually be delivered within 24 hours – or even on the same day.
