Truck mounted forklifts are designed for easy transport, but you'll need to ensure your vehicle is compatible and properly equipped. Consider factors like the forklift's weight, dimensions, and mounting requirements. If you're not equipped to transport it yourself, Purple Wave can provide recommendations for third-party shipping services to assist with delivery.

When operating a used truck mounted forklift, it's important to familiarize yourself with the specific model's controls and features. Ensure all safety devices are functional, and consider having the forklift inspected by a qualified technician before use. Always follow manufacturer guidelines for operation and weight limits, and ensure operators are properly trained and certified.
