Forklifts we buy
A forklift does not need to be running, recently serviced or complete for us to consider it. We assess individual machines, mixed fleets and surplus equipment.
All brands, ages and lifting capacities are considered. The machine's details and location help us determine the practical next step.

Repairs can become difficult to justify when hours are high, parts are obsolete or a damaged machine is occupying useful floor space. Let us assess it before you spend more.
Not sure how to describe the fault? Call us. Make, model, location and a quick explanation are enough to start.

Why sellers call VIC Trucks Buyer
An exit plan for equipment you no longer need
Whether one damaged forklift is blocking a workshop bay or a fleet change has left surplus machines behind, we keep the conversation focused on the equipment and a workable pickup.
Straightforward assessment
Your quote is based on the forklift details you provide, including its condition, location and recovery needs.
Machinery recovery experience
We plan collection around the machine and site, with pickup available by arrangement across Victoria.
Faulty machines considered
Mechanical, hydraulic and electrical problems do not automatically make a forklift unsaleable.
Responsible next use
Usable equipment and components can be recovered before remaining materials are directed toward recycling.

Forklift sale FAQ
These are the details sellers most often need before requesting an assessment or arranging collection.
What types of forklifts do you buy?
We buy counterbalance forklifts, reach trucks, pallet trucks, order pickers, side loaders, rough-terrain forklifts, telehandlers, and most electric, LPG, petrol, or diesel machines.
Do you buy forklifts that no longer run?
Yes. We assess non-running, mechanically faulty, accident-damaged, fire-affected, flood-affected, incomplete, and scrap forklifts.
What details do you need for a forklift quote?
Send the make, model, fuel type, approximate hours, condition, and pickup suburb. Photos help us assess damage and access requirements more accurately.
Can you collect a forklift outside Melbourne?
Yes. We arrange forklift pickup across Melbourne and throughout Victoria, subject to the machine, location, and safe site access.
Will you buy an incomplete or dismantled forklift?
Yes. Missing parts do not automatically rule out a purchase. Tell us what remains and whether the forklift can roll, steer, or be accessed by recovery equipment.

After you accept our offer, we confirm the pickup details, access requirements, paperwork, and payment arrangement before collection.
