Advantages

This used Moffett M8 55.3NX truck mounted piggyback forklift provides a combination of portability, power, and practicality that improves delivery efficiency and jobsite productivity. Key advantages include:

• Proven Moffett Design: Moffett is a leading brand in the truck-mounted space, engineered for fast mounting/dismounting, dependable hydraulics, and stable load handling at delivery locations.
• Low-Hour 2019 Unit: With 915 hours and a 2019 model year, this M8 55.3NX brings modern design and a long runway of remaining service life—ideal for fleets focused on uptime and ROI.
• Diesel Efficiency: Diesel fuel delivers strong torque for loading and maneuvering, along with widespread fuel availability in regional and long-haul operations.
• Truck-Mounted Convenience: Eliminates waiting for onsite forklifts; drivers can unload themselves and stay on schedule, even at remote or undeveloped locations.
• Compact Transport, Big Capability: The piggyback format allows you to carry the forklift without sacrificing load space in the truck bed, while still handling pallets, building materials, and bulky freight efficiently.
• Reduced Labor and Delays: One operator can unload—in many cases without calling in additional equipment—cutting idle time and delivery bottlenecks.

Applications

Truck mounted piggyback forklifts like the Moffett M8 55.3NX excel in industries and delivery scenarios where access is tight, ground conditions are variable, and timing is critical. This used Moffett is an excellent fit for:

• Building Materials Delivery: Lumber, sheet goods, masonry, doors, windows, and packaged components unloaded right where crews need them.
• Roofing and Exterior Products: Shingles, underlayment, siding, and trim placed close to staging areas to reduce manual handling.
• HVAC and Mechanical Supply: Palletized equipment and ductwork delivered to the job entrance or staging zone with minimal disruption.
• Industrial and MRO Distribution: Dock-free or customer-side deliveries where the receiving site lacks a forklift or dock-high access.
• Agriculture and Landscaping: Fertilizer, seed, turf, sod, and hardscape materials delivered to fields or yards beyond the pavement.
• Retail and Big-Box Support: Seasonal or overflow deliveries to locations with limited back-of-store dock capacity.
• Event and Rental Logistics: Temporary structures, flooring, and equipment placed where installers can work most efficiently.

In each of these environments, the ability to transport your own forklift effectively eliminates “dead time” waiting on site resources. The result is predictable scheduling, better customer service, and fewer missed delivery windows.

Ownership Value

Choosing a used Moffett M8 55.3NX with low hours is a smart way to boost delivery capability without the depreciation hit of new equipment. Value drivers for this unit include:

• Lower Acquisition Cost: At $29,875, this used Moffett delivers professional-grade performance at a fraction of new pricing.
• Productivity on Demand: Carry your forklift with you—reduce double handling, avoid rescheduled drops, and complete more stops per shift.
• Diesel Durability: Diesel engines are known for longevity and torque, supporting reliable performance on varied terrain and gradients common at construction and industrial sites.
• Brand Reputation: Moffett truck mounted forklifts are widely used across North America—service knowledge and parts sourcing are well established in the market.
• Resale Considerations: Premium brands with documented care tend to retain value, which can improve total cost of ownership over a full lifecycle.

For owners and fleet managers, these factors translate into measurable gains in delivery speed, customer satisfaction, and cost per stop—while preserving capital for other priorities in your operation.
