Hyundai Forklift | 3,500 lbs Capacity

The Hyundai 3,500 lb Forklift is a compact, high-cycle indoor lift built for warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing floors where tight aisles and dock clearances demand precision over bulk. Powered by a Mitsubishi/MMC 2.0L engine at 48 HP, it moves fast between pick points without the overhead of ownership,  no maintenance schedules, no certification costs, no storage headaches between peak seasons.

RentPro serves operations across Gainesville FL, Ocala FL; Tallahassee, FL; and Quitman GA with inspection-ready forklifts available by the day, week, or month.

Who Rents This Machine

This unit performs best in warehouse receiving and put-away, retail distribution fulfillment, manufacturing material flow, construction supply staging indoors, trade show load-in, and short-term peak demand operations. If your loads exceed 3,500 lbs, consider our Hyundai 6,500 lb Forklift, or if your operation moves material at height outdoors, the Telehandler 12,000 lbs / 55ft may be the better fit.
