Luibl Rental rents out counterbalance forklifts with load capacities from 1.5 to 18 t - with electric, diesel and LPG drive, available short-term or long-term. The fleet comprises inspected series machines from leading manufacturers: from the compact electric three-wheel forklift for intralogistics to the Kalmar DCG 180-6T with 18 t load capacity for heavy-duty applications in industry and port logistics. Our own low-loader fleet delivers heavy counterbalance forklifts directly to your location - throughout Slovakia and on the agreed date.

Counterbalance forklift fleet at a glance: 1.5 to 18 tonnes

The Luibl fleet covers the full load capacity range and includes electric, diesel and LPG drives in all common lift height classes.

1.5 to 2 tonnes - electric forklifts for warehousing and production Available models: Hyundai 15BT-9 (5.5 m lift height), Hyundai 18BT-9 (5.5 m), EP CPD18TV8 (up to 6 m), EP EFL181 four-wheel (4.8 m). This class is suited to sensitive hall floors, narrow aisles and indoor areas without local emissions.

2 to 5 tonnes - electric, diesel and LPG for medium loads Hyundai 30D-9 (diesel, 4.7 m), Doosan D30G-Plus (diesel, 5 m), EP EFL302 Triplex (electric, 4.8 m), Hyundai 30BH-9 (electric, 6 m), Manitou MI 35 (diesel, up to 6 m), EP EFL352 (electric, up to 6 m), Hyundai 40L-7A (LPG, 6.03 m). This class covers construction, logistics, production and retail alike.

5 to 10 tonnes - electric and diesel for heavy loads Hyundai 50B-9 (electric, 5.9 m), Manitou MI 50 Triplex (diesel, 5 m), Hyundai 50DA-9 (diesel, 5.98 m), Manitou MI 70 Triplex (diesel, 6 m), Hyundai 70L-7A (LPG, 5.06 m), Kalmar ECF 80-9 (electric, 8 t, 3.45 m), Hyundai 80D-9 (diesel, 8 t, 6 m), Manitou MI 100 D (diesel, 10 t, 6 m).

Drive types compared: electric, diesel or LPG?

Electric forklifts produce no local emissions, are quiet and gentle on floors - the first choice for warehouse logistics, food production, cold stores and businesses with emission restrictions. Available in the Luibl fleet from 1.5 to 10 t, with lift heights up to 6 m.

Diesel forklifts are powerful and robust, suitable for all outdoor applications - unaffected by weather and varying ground conditions. From 3 to 18 t in the fleet. The standard choice for sites, ports, timber yards and scrap trading.

LPG forklifts combine flexibility for indoor and outdoor use with high lifting capacity. The Hyundai 40L-7A (4 t, 6.03 m lift height) and the Hyundai 70L-7A (7 t) are typical examples for logistics centres and wholesale without strict indoor emission restrictions.

Renting a forklift instead of buying - when it pays off

Renting a counterbalance forklift pays off when demand is project-based or seasonal (trade fairs, relocations, harvest campaigns), load capacity requirements vary, or capacity peaks need to be bridged at short notice. All Luibl rental machines are handed over serviced and inspected - maintenance and repair risks remain with the rental company.

Compared with buying, no capital is tied up. The investment risk from changing requirements or technical developments is borne by the rental company.

Your benefits with Luibl Rental

  • Delivery throughout Slovakia: prompt availability of machines wherever you need them

  • Own low-loader fleet: heavy counterbalance forklifts from 8 t are delivered safely and on the agreed date on our own low-loaders - without third-party logistics providers

  • Load capacity 1.5 to 18 t from a single source: one contact for all classes, no multi-sourcing

  • Leading manufacturers: Hyundai, Manitou, Kalmar, EP Equipment, Doosan - type-approved series machines with secured spare parts supply

  • Short-term and long-term rental: daily, weekly and monthly rental depending on project duration

Regulations and safety: who may operate a forklift?

Operating industrial trucks in Slovakia requires a valid forklift operator licence. The legal framework is Act No. 124/2006 Coll. on occupational safety and health and Decree No. 356/2007 Coll.. Only authorised and briefed persons may operate a forklift; the licence is issued by an authorised training provider, and refresher training is required within 5 years.

For heavy-duty machines from 10 t - such as the Hyundai 160D-9 or the Kalmar DCG 180-6T - ground bearing capacity, safety distances and, where applicable, static loads on floors and bridges must be checked separately.

Note: For operations outside Slovakia, different national regulations may apply. We recommend checking the country-specific requirements in advance.

FAQ: Forklift rental up to 18 tonnes

chevronDown

How much does it cost to rent a forklift?

Rental costs vary with load capacity, drive type, rental period and delivery location. Light electric forklifts (1.5 - 3 t) are priced below heavy-duty diesel forklifts in the 16 - 18 t range. On request, Luibl Rental prepares an individual quote - non-binding and prompt.

What load capacity do I need for my job?

As a guideline: the rated capacity of the forklift should be 20–30 % above the actual maximum weight. For Euro pallets up to 1,500 kg, a 2 t model is sufficient. For steel bundles, precast concrete elements or container loads, models up to 18 t are available.

Who may drive a forklift?

Only persons with a valid forklift operator licence (Act No. 124/2006 Coll., Decree No. 356/2007 Coll.) may drive industrial trucks. Training covers theoretical and practical parts; the licence is issued by an authorised training provider.

What distinguishes counterbalance forklifts from rough-terrain forklifts?

Counterbalance forklifts are designed for level to lightly paved surfaces - warehouses, production, paved outdoor areas. For construction sites, unpaved areas or very uneven ground, a rough-terrain forklift with increased ground clearance and all-wheel drive is recommended.

How quickly can a counterbalance forklift be delivered?

Many machines are available at short notice. Delivery dates depend on the model, load class and delivery location - enquiries are processed as quickly as possible.
