Used Skytrak Telehandler For Sale
When you tell someone you are going to purchase a telehandler, often they will assume it’s going to be a Skytrak. That’s because they are one of the most purchased brands in the world and also happen to be manufactured by JLG, one of the top construction equipment companies in the world. Finding a used Skytrak telehandler for sale is one of the best decisions you can make for your business if you’re in need of a forklift.
You might be considering buying a new Skytrak telehandler instead of a used Skytrak telehandler. While this might sound like a smart choice at first, there are actually some real things to consider here. Purchasing a brand new piece of equipment is rarely the best idea. A used SkyTrak forklift is more affordable, won’t suffer from substantial depreciation, and if well maintained, runs just as efficiently as a brand new machine.
Used Skytrak Telehandler For Sale VS IPhone
Have you ever noticed that every year or two there is a brand new iPhone released? It comes with a few new features, a shiny case, and an extra number at the end, but it’s still the same phone. It makes calls, uses apps, and takes pictures just like the iPhone from last year.
Still, you might feel compelled to buy the new model even though you have an old one. And if you don’t have the old one, you might still choose to buy the new one instead of a used model for a much lower price. Why? It’s the allure of buying something new.
A phone isn’t that cheap, but it’s certainly a lot cheaper than a piece of new construction equipment. You can probably fit a new phone in your budget, but can you afford to fit a piece of $50,000 equipment in there? And what is going to happen next year when the newer model is released? What was the point?

Older Skytrak Telehandler Models Work Fine
Construction equipment actually changes at a slower rate than phones. A new iPhone might have 20 new features, but a newer model of equipment will only have three or four. This makes finding a used Skytrak telehandler for sale a far more economical choice. A used Skytrak forklift from two years ago is going to work just as well as the new Skytraks for sale from the manufacturer today. There are many models of Skytrack shooting boom forklifts with different specs. These include:
Telehandler Specs Are Important
The important thing to look for is a machine with capable specs. Skytrak has always been a great brand, so nearly every Skytrak for sale is going to be a capable, efficient, and a dependable machine. So why bother sinking twice as much money into a new Skytrak forklift for sale when a used Skytrak telehandler for sale is rated just as highly and has the same exact specifications?
The key factors to look for with any used Skytrak telehandler for sale are the weight capacity, the working height, and the horizontal outreach. These numbers must be within the range of the load you will be moving at your job site. You can find a well maintained, used Skytrak for sale with the right specs at National Lift Equipment.

In industry, the most common attachment for a zoom boom is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move loads to and from locations unreachable for a conventional forklift. For example, teleporters have the ability to remove palletized cargo from within a trailer and to place that product on to rooftops and other high places. The latter use would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient in a construction zone.
In agriculture the most common attachment for a telehandler is a bucket grab, and the most widely used application is to move loads to and from places unreachable for a ‘conventional machine’ which in this case is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For example, telehandlers have the ability to extend directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a loading ramp, or something similar.
