Condition

With just 3,695 hours and model year 2020, this Toyota 8FGU30 sits in a desirable window of age and usage for buyers who prioritize service life and reliability. Every equipment listing at NLEQ is carefully tested and inspected prior to sale, so you can expect an honest, fact-based representation of functionality and a forklift that is prepared for real-world work. As with all used Industrial Forklifts, buyers should assess fit for their specific application, but the combination of low hours and Toyota build quality makes this a compelling option for operations focused on uptime and predictable ownership.

Advantages

• Propane power: Propane fueling provides clean combustion suitable for indoor environments with proper ventilation while still performing reliably outdoors. It refuels quickly—simply swap cylinders—to minimize downtime compared to charging electric units, and it maintains consistent performance across shifts.
• 6000# Capacity: A 6000# Capacity gives you headroom for a wide range of palletized and bulk material loads. It’s a practical sweet spot for building materials, finished goods, components, and general warehouse freight—heavy enough for demanding loads without sacrificing maneuverability.
• 89" (Collapsed) Triple Mast: An 89" collapsed height helps the forklift clear low doorways, mezzanines, and dock canopies. The triple mast design delivers the vertical reach needed for modern racking systems while keeping transport height friendly for tight facilities.
• 187" Lift Height: A maximum lift height of 187" provides ample stacking capability for most distribution, manufacturing, and storage layouts. That extra reach supports efficient cube utilization and better inventory density without overextending the machine’s footprint.
• Side Shift: Side Shift allows lateral movement of the carriage to fine-tune placement without repositioning the entire forklift. Operators can square up loads faster, reduce tire scrubbing from repeated maneuvers, and improve productivity during tight docking and racking work.
• Three Way Hydraulics: Three Way Hydraulics enable simultaneous or sequential control of essential functions, improving throughput and allowing operators to work more fluidly when lifting, tilting, and positioning loads.
• Toyota reputation: Toyota Industrial Forklifts are renowned for durability and straightforward serviceability. That reputation translates into strong parts availability and long-term support, helping contain total cost of ownership.

Applications

• Warehousing and distribution: Receive, put-away, order-picking, staging, and loading tasks benefit from the 6000# Capacity and Side Shift precision.
• Manufacturing and assembly: Feed production lines, move dies and fixtures, stage work-in-process, and handle finished goods with consistent Propane power and quick refueling.
• Building materials and lumber: Load and unload trucks, shuttle heavy packs, and stack product up to 187" where vertical storage is needed.
• Metal and fabrication shops: Transport plate, bar, and fabricated assemblies efficiently, leveraging the robust lift class and precise load positioning.
• Food and beverage: Work in dock areas and coolers where Propane lift trucks are commonly used, maintaining steady throughput during peak shifts.
• General industrial and yard operations: A balanced footprint, triple mast, and Side Shift make this Toyota 8FGU30 well-suited to mixed indoor/outdoor fleets and cross-dock environments.

Ownership Value

Choosing a used Toyota 8FGU30 with verified features and practical specs is a direct path to strong ROI. Propane fueling minimizes downtime and supports multi-shift usage. The 6000# Capacity covers a broad spectrum of loads, often allowing a single forklift to replace multiple specialized units. The 89" (Collapsed) Triple Mast and 187" Lift Height ensure your forklift can access tight spaces yet still reach the heights your racking requires. Side Shift and Three Way Hydraulics enhance operator control, reduce cycle times, and limit wear from excessive repositioning. Add Toyota’s well-earned durability and the service ecosystem supporting these Industrial Forklifts, and you get a machine that keeps costs predictable and productivity high.

Why This 8FGU30
