How Long Does A Forklift Last?

A forklift’s age is measured in hours used.  For a single-shift operation with an 8-hour work day, the average forklift runs 2,000 hours/ year. The average lifespan of a forklift is 10,000 hours, but this largely depends on the manufacturer as well as how well it is looked after.  One very important contributing factor when it comes to how long a forklift lasts is Preventative Maintenance.  Planned Regular Preventative Maintenance should always be considered when you use a forklift for your business.  Your forklift plays a vital role in keeping your business moving and is a big investment so looking after it properly makes total sense.
