Advantages of This Genie GTH-844

• Proven Genie engineering: Genie telehandlers are widely respected for their robust frames, intuitive controls, and dependable components that stand up to the realities of heavy construction.
• Diesel power: Diesel delivers strong torque for lifting and placing loads across uneven terrain while providing the fuel efficiency that helps keep operating costs manageable over long shifts.
• Operator-friendly platform: The GTH-844 lineage is known for visibility, predictable load handling, and stability, supporting safer, more precise material placement at height.
• Productivity in a single machine: A telehandler is often the most versatile tool on a jobsite, reducing the need for additional cranes or rough-terrain forklifts for many tasks.
• Value-focused price point: At $39,875.00, this 2016 unit offers professional capability at a fraction of new replacement cost, helping owners preserve capital while upgrading fleet capability.

Auxiliary hydraulics, when present on a telehandler like the Genie GTH-844, enable the use of powered attachments such as brooms, grapples, and specialty buckets. This is a practical way to expand a single machine’s utility across multiple tasks, minimizing downtime and increasing ROI. If your work requires hydraulic attachments, discuss your needs with our team and we can help you confirm configuration and compatibility.

The GTH-844 model family is associated with the 8,000-lb capacity class and approximately 44-foot lift height class. In practical terms, that means the machine is engineered for substantial palletized loads, truss packs, masonry bundles, and jobsite materials, with the reach to place them at elevated work decks or rooflines typical in commercial construction. Always verify the exact capacity chart and lift height for the specific unit and attachment setup you plan to use.

Applications and Practical Use Cases

• General construction: Move and stage palletized materials, steel, decking, and tools where they are needed—fast and efficiently—without tying up a crane.
• Masonry and concrete: Lift masonry bundles, core fill materials, and formwork. The stable platform of a GTH-844 supports consistent throughput on tight urban or uneven sites.
• Framing and roofing: Place trusses, sheathing, and roofing materials at working height. The telehandler’s combination of lift class and reach class streamlines production.
• Industrial facilities: Support maintenance and plant turnarounds by lifting equipment, platforms, and parts precisely where crews need them.
• Site logistics: Keep projects moving by unloading trucks, staging materials, and feeding crews from a single machine equipped for rough terrain.
• Attachment-driven tasks: With auxiliary hydraulics in play, a telehandler can power specialty attachments to sweep, clamp, or handle loose materials, consolidating multiple roles into one asset.

What Diesel Power Means in Daily Operation

Choosing a diesel telehandler like this 2016 Genie GTH-844 gives you the torque and throttle response needed to negotiate inclines, soft ground, and jobsite ruts while carrying loads. Diesel engines are built for sustained duty cycles and long service intervals when maintained properly, which can lower total cost of ownership over years of use. Fuel economy and durability are especially important when a telehandler is central to your daily workflow.

Understanding Capacity and Lift Height on the GTH-844

Genie’s “844” model designation aligns with an 8,000-lb capacity class and a 44-ft lift class. From a buyer’s standpoint, that combination is popular because it covers a wide range of commercial and residential construction needs without stepping into the size, transport, and cost considerations of larger machines. It’s a sweet spot for contractors who want one telehandler to handle most core tasks—unloading deliveries, staging materials at elevation, and supporting subcontractors—day in and day out. Because load charts vary by attachment, boom angle, and extension, confirm the exact chart for the unit you intend to purchase to ensure it meets your site requirements.

Ownership Value

• Trusted brand support: Genie’s broad parts availability and service network help minimize downtime and keep lifecycle costs predictable.
• Resale confidence: Well-maintained Genie telehandlers historically hold their value, especially in the core 8,000-lb/44-ft class many buyers seek.
• Fleet fit: The GTH-844 is common across rental and contractor fleets, simplifying operator training and parts stocking.
• Cost control: A used, inspected unit priced at $39,875.00 allows you to allocate capital to other revenue-generating assets while still gaining the performance you need.
