Forklift Hire Perth FAQs
Our hire fleet covers the full range of materials handling equipment. You can hire LPG forklifts, diesel forklifts, and battery electric forklifts in capacities from 800kg through to 45 tonnes. We also have pallet jacks, stackers, reach trucks, telehandlers, 4×4 rough terrain forklifts, and container handlers available for hire. If you’re unsure which machine suits your job, call Katie on 0449 575 806 and she’ll match you to the right equipment in minutes.
We offer hire terms from a single day right through to five-year long-term contracts. Short-term hire runs for less than six months with no lock-in contract and maximum flexibility. Long-term hire of six months or more comes with a set monthly rate, no CPI increases, and full maintenance included. Whatever your timeline, we’ll structure a hire agreement that works for your operation and budget.
The right forklift depends on three things: the load weight you need to lift, the environment you’re working in, and how high you need to stack. A warehouse environment typically suits an electric forklift for its zero emissions and quiet operation. Outdoor or uneven terrain calls for a diesel or LPG counterbalance or a rough terrain model. Our hire manager Katie has years of fleet knowledge behind her, call us and we’ll make sure you get the right machine for the job first time.
We can deliver anywhere in the Perth metro area within 24 hours. Because we own our own tilt tray, we’re not dependent on third-party transport contractors — we load and go on our schedule. For urgent requirements, call us directly on 08 9248 8660 and we’ll do everything we can to get a machine to your site the same day.
Yes — every machine that leaves our Malaga workshop is fully serviced, certified, and work-ready before delivery. Our in-house technicians carry out pre-hire inspections on all equipment so you receive a machine that’s safe, compliant, and ready to work from the moment it arrives on site. Ongoing maintenance throughout your hire period is also included, so there are no unexpected repair costs.
Call us straight away on 08 9248 8660. Our team will dispatch a technician to assess and repair the machine as quickly as possible. Because we service our own fleet in-house, we can respond faster than most. If the machine can’t be repaired on-site promptly, we’ll arrange a replacement so your operations aren’t left standing still.
Yes, absolutely. We understand that projects change and timelines shift. If you need to extend your hire, simply contact our hire team and we’ll arrange it. If you need to return the machine earlier than expected, speak to Katie directly and we’ll work something out. Our hire agreements are designed to be flexible — we’re here to support your business, not lock you into something that doesn’t suit.

Is Forklift Hire Right for Your Business?
Not every business needs to own its equipment. For many Perth operations, from construction sites and warehouses to one-off projects and seasonal peaks, hiring a forklift is simply the smarter financial decision.
Here’s why businesses across WA choose to hire
- It protects your working capital. Purchasing a new forklift is a significant upfront investment. Hiring lets you allocate that capital to the areas of your business that need it most without compromising your operations.
- It removes the maintenance burden. Every machine in our fleet is fully serviced and maintained by our in-house technicians before and during your hire period. No unexpected repair bills. No downtime from a machine that isn’t your problem to fix.
- It keeps your options open. Need a 3-tonne LPG counterbalance this month and a rough terrain forklift next quarter? Hire gives you the flexibility to scale up, scale down, or switch machines as your requirements change, no locked-in asset on the books.
- It’s a smart way to trial before you buy. If you’re considering purchasing a forklift down the track, hiring first lets you assess real-world usage and determine the right machine before committing. When you’re ready to buy, browse our full range of new forklifts and used forklifts for sale.
Whether you need a machine for a single day or a five-year contract, Allied Forklifts makes it simple. Contact our hire team today and we’ll match you to the right equipment at the right price.
