Join forktrucks.com

forktrucks.com has put buyers in touch with the UK forklift and materials handling trade since 2000. Membership is for forklift truck dealers, parts and ancillary suppliers and specialist equipment companies. The people who use the site have a truck to buy, hire or sell, or a question only a dealer can answer, and membership puts your company in front of them.

What members get

• Quote requests for your area. Buyers tell us where the equipment will be used and what they need; the request reaches the members covering that area with the buyer’s details, and you reply direct. No charge per lead.
• Questions and used trucks. Buyers can ask a dealer before they know what to ask for, and end users offer their redundant trucks to members who buy from the trade.
• The eMail-Shot Tools. Reach the trade in one go, with an attachment: the forklift dealers, the parts and ancillary suppliers, the plant machinery companies, the transport companies when you have a machine to move, and the recruitment agencies when you are hiring. Offers, parts wanted, stock lists, new lines. A PDF compressor is provided for larger attachments.
• Your stock on the site. List your used equipment with photos, a public price and a trade price the public never sees. Your stock list can sit on your own website too, updated by you here. Listings feed the latest deals pages and the price guide.
• Your own page and badge. A page of your own on forktrucks.com with your details, categories and current stock, and a badge for your website that links to it.
• Your card on every page you cover. Logo, headline, phone, website and a contact link on each manufacturer, parts and specialist page for the makes and categories you tick. Written by us from your website if you prefer, edited by you when you like.

One annual membership covers all of it. There are no extra charges for adverts, leads or listings.

Added in the last few months

The site is developed continuously and everything below arrived since the summer, included in the same annual membership.

• Two more eMail-Shot audiences: the plant machinery companies and the transport companies, each filtered by country and, in the United Kingdom, by area.
• Ask a Dealer — a buyer puts a plain question to the members covering their area, before they know what to ask for.
• Quote requests routed by area, so a request reaches the members who cover the place the equipment will be used.
• Your own page and a badge for your website, and your listing card rewritten in your own words whenever you like.
• Hours on every truck, with an “up to” filter on the search so a buyer can compare properly.
• Trade prices for signed-in members on every page that lists equipment, with the retail price shown to everyone else.
• Three new parts categories — LPG Specialists, Safety, Lighting and Warning Systems and Access Platform Parts and Spares — each with its own page and its own line on the parts request form.
• The site, the members area and the eMail-Shot forms all work on a phone or tablet.
• Your used equipment is found by the search engines and readable by AI assistants.

Members get a changelog of every change as it is made.
