Forklift or pallet truck rental, which one to choose?

How electric forklift and pallet truck rental can help you move materials

The rental of electric trolleys and pallet trucks is essential for the movement of materials, on and off the construction site. The CGTE rental park offers you different rental options for both types of construction equipment based on your needs!

What is the difference between electric trolleys and pallet trucks?

Although electric forklifts and pallet trucks are two types of machinery that can be used for the same function, they are very different from each other. Electric forklifts, such as the GDP30 MX YALE model, are equipped with a driver’s station and are therefore more useful for jobs where we need to frequently move our rental machinery. Pallet trucks, on the other hand, are types of forklifts that are less bulky than electric forklifts and therefore more useful if we operate in confined spaces.
