Local Support With Genuine Expertise
A repurposed shed rarely gives you a clean sheet. The columns are where they are, the racking was set out for a previous tenant, the power is where the last business needed it and the slab was poured for a different load. All of that constrains the machine, and ignoring it is how businesses end up with a forklift that fits the spec sheet but not the floor. Send us the constraints, awkward as they are, and we will work within them.
Buy A Fork also holds replacement parts for most major forklift brands, which keeps downtime short when something fails mid-shift.

Why Broadmeadows Businesses Choose Buy A Fork
Plenty of Broadmeadows tenancies come with racking already in place and no paperwork behind it. Before we recommend a machine to work in it, we want to know what that racking is rated to hold and what condition it is in.
Mechanical and safety inspections
Technicians assess mechanical components, lifting systems, safety features and overall condition to confirm each machine is ready for reliable daily operation before it reaches the floor.
Compliance with Australian standards
All forklifts supplied meet the required Australian regulations for professional use in industrial, warehousing and distribution environments.
Transparent service reports
Clear information on each machine's maintenance history, repairs and operating hours, so you know how it was treated before you buy rather than after.
Matched to the racking you have
We ask about beam heights, bay capacity and the condition of the racking you inherited, because the machine has to suit the storage system rather than the other way around, and pushing a heavier unit into old racking is how uprights get hit.

Frequently Asked Questions About Buying a Forklift in Broadmeadows
Do you deliver forklifts to Broadmeadows?
Yes. We deliver to Broadmeadows and the surrounding northern industrial areas including Coolaroo, Campbellfield, Somerton, Dallas and Tullamarine from our Somerton yard.
Is delivery to Broadmeadows free?
For most addresses, yes. Free local delivery applies within 10km of Somerton and most of Broadmeadows sits inside that radius, so check your exact address with us.
How do I know what my inherited racking can hold?
It should carry a load sign showing the rated capacity per beam level and per bay. If there is no sign, or you cannot identify the manufacturer, the capacity is unknown and should be established by a competent person before you load it. Confirm your obligations with WorkSafe Victoria.
What should I check on second-hand racking?
Bent or dented uprights and beams, missing safety pins or clips, damaged base plates, missing footplate bolts, and any repairs done with welding. Damage at forklift height is the common one, and it usually means the aisle is too tight for the machine being used.
Does racking condition change which forklift I should buy?
It can. Damaged or unrated racking limits how high and how heavy you can safely store, which changes the lift height and capacity you need. Sort the racking question first, then specify the machine against the answer.
Can I reconfigure the racking to suit a cheaper machine?
Sometimes, and it is worth pricing. Lowering the top beam or widening an aisle can bring a less expensive machine into range. Any reconfiguration should be done to the racking's design and signed off, not improvised.
How much does a used forklift cost?
Price depends on capacity, lift height, mast type, fuel, hours and condition. There is no single figure. Send us your beam heights, bay capacity and aisle width and we will quote against current stock.
