Jungheinrich to hold used truck fairs

Jungheinirch (UK) will hold a series of used equipment fairs across the country throughout 2012. The events will take place at Jungheinrich's depots in Warrington, Birmingham, Cumbernauld, Milton Keynes, Sheffield and Bristol between February and October.

The dates of the Jungheinrich 2012 used truck showroom events:
Warrington - February 8th and September 13th
Birmingham - April18th and November 7th
Cumbernauld - April 25th
Milton Keynes May 16th and 17th and October 9th and 10th
Sheffield - June 27th
Bristol - July 18th


Electric and engine-powered counterbalance forklifts, pallet trucks and reach trucks will be available at the showroom events and all models on display will be offered for next-day delivery.

Each of the trucks on show will have been rebuilt at the Jungheinrich Group's specialist used truck refurbishment centre in Dresden, Germany. Each model comes with a full service history, LOLER certification and up to six months warranty.

“With fully refurbished lift trucks available at around two thirds of the price of a new truck - and, in some cases, up to 40 per cent less - many truck users have found that used forklifts represent an attractive and economical alternative to new equipment,” says Craig Johnson, marketing manager of Jungheinrich (UK).

“But financial considerations are not always the key driver and many organisations also choose to invest in used equipment if their forklift usage patterns and the intensity at which their trucks are expected to perform do not warrant purchasing new units,” he adds.

Jungheinrich UK's dedicated used equipment showrooms have an online connection to a database covering used trucks available from all Jungheinrich Group subsidiaries throughout Europe, which means the company offers one of the most comprehensive ranges of used trucks available today.
