Hyundai Forklift | 6,500 lbs Capacity

The go-to indoor forklift rental for warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing floors, and construction material staging. The Hyundai 6,500 lb Forklift delivers reliable, precision lifting with a 59.1HP Hyundai 2.4L engine, 5,000–6,500 lb load capacity, and a compact frame built to move fast in tight operational environments, without the cost, maintenance, or liability burden of ownership.

Buying a comparable Hyundai forklift means absorbing $25,000–$40,000+ in purchase cost, plus annual maintenance, tire replacement, and certification. Renting gives you a fully serviced, operator-ready machine for exactly the days your operation demands it.

Built for Tight Spaces, High-Throughput Operations

At 42.1–43.7 in overall width and an 80–82.7 in turning radius, this machine navigates standard warehouse aisles, loading dock approaches, and confined staging areas without repositioning delays. At 9.6–9.7 MPH unloaded travel speed, your crew moves more loads per shift with less fatigue.

Key Features:

  • 6,500 lb Load Capacity – Handles palletized goods, construction materials, and industrial equipment with a stable, rated lift margin.
  • 59.1HP / 2,300 RPM Engine – Consistent power output for sustained multi-shift operations without overheating or performance loss.
  • 9.6–9.7 MPH Travel Speed (Unloaded) – Fast cycle times between pick points keep your crew productive and throughput high.
  • 42.1–43.7 in Overall Width – Narrow enough to navigate standard warehouse aisles and loading dock approaches with ease.
  • 80–82.7 in Turning Radius – Tight indoor turning capability reduces repositioning time in confined spaces.
  • 81.3 in Overhead Guard Height – Standard clearance for dock doors, warehouse shelving, and interior loading areas.
  • 89.8–93.9 in Fork Face Length – Accommodates standard and oversized pallet configurations without load shifting risk.

Skip the Purchase, Rent When You Need It

A new Hyundai forklift at this capacity runs $25,000–$40,000 upfront. Factor in tire wear, yearly operator certification, and idle storage costs between peak periods, ownership overhead compounds fast. Renting keeps capital available for operations while putting the right machine on your floor for precisely as long as the job requires. Rent Pro serves job sites and facilities across Gainesville FL, Ocala FL, Tallahassee FL, and Quitman GA.
