Telehandlers on hire

Telehandler, rough terrain or diesel forklift

Telehandlers are available on hire; ask us which models are available now. A telehandler combines elements of a forklift and a crane, with a telescopic boom for lifting and placing materials. We supply JCB telehandlers.

What a telehandler does

One machine, a range of jobs

01

Loading trailers

Forward reach means less re-positioning when placing or removing a load.

02

Stacking and placing

Bales, building materials and other loads placed at height around a yard or site.

03

Uneven ground

It works around barns, in yards and in other areas a standard forklift cannot reach.

04

Attachments

Forks, buckets, bale clamps and jibs, so one telehandler covers several tasks.

05

All year

Harvest and bale-making in summer, feeding, bedding and maintenance in winter.

06

Choosing one

Tell us the heaviest load including any attachment, the lift height, the ground and the working space.
