Most businesses experience peaks in activity, whether operations intensify seasonally or due to exceptional events. To scale these challenges, Hyster has a range of solutions.
Short Term Rental
During periods of high demand, you may need to expand your fleet for relatively short periods of time. Hyster® dealers are on hand to support you with short term forklift hire. Often the right trucks can be sourced at very short notice, ready to take on peak season. That includes, Hyster® IC Forklift Trucks, tough Electric Hyster® Lift Trucks, warehouse equipment options, and Heavy Duty Hyster® Forklifts.
As well as helping you boost your materials handling capacity, short term rental can also fill the gap in your fleet in the event of equipment breakdown – helping maximise vital uptime so you can hit your deadlines.
Hyster Used and Refurbished Forklifts
If production and logistics operations are under pressure, used forklifts can help you extend the fleet fast for increased uptime, while meeting your budget. A used or fully refurbished Hyster® lift truck from an official Hyster dealer may also be an ideal solution to keep on site as a reserve machine. You can be ready whenever peaks hit, with the right truck for your particular application.
HysterUsed.com makes it even simpler to find robust quality used lift trucks at a competitive price, from official Hyster dealers. Many of these models are fully refurbished by the dealer as part of the Hyster Approved Used programme.
Solutions to Support Operators
During peak times, you may need to use more agency staff to help keep things moving. Certain Hyster solutions may help to uphold your operating standards where there are high numbers of temporary staff. For example, optional systems for supporting lift truck operator awareness, such as the Dynamic Pedestrian Awareness Light and Reverse Speed System.
Hyster Tracker telematics can also be used to control operator access, helping to prevent any operator without the necessary training from using a lift truck. The same wireless asset management system can also be used to optimise fleet utilisation to support uptime. Plus, it aids planning for upcoming maintenance, helping minimise disruptions.
Trucks Ready for the Challenge
Managing peaks effectively depends on operator productivity. Hyster offers your busy operation comfortable forklifts, that are intuitive to use, yet perform in tough conditions.
This includes IC lift trucks with Stage V engines which deliver on fuel efficiency, excellent power response, and high performance. Ideal for seasonal peaks and tight timescales when trucks are pushed harder, and ideal for tough operations, such as those found in the paper supply chain or in manufacturing industries.
Applications could also consider having back-up trucks in their fleet, ready for upswings in demand. To maximise your budget with trucks that are simple to operate, the UT series of IC and Electric Lift Trucks and warehouse equipment could power your possibilities.
