Considering the switch from gas to electric forklifts? There are multiple benefits of using electric forklifts. G&W has a full line, providing increased productivity with long-lasting battery power.
Total Cost of Ownership
On average, an electric forklift costs 25 – 30 percent less to operate than a gas-powered forklift. A 5,000 lb. electric forklift consumes $700 of electricity annually, on average, while an equivalent gas-powered lift truck uses $4,500 in LP gas per year.
More Uptime
Industry leading electric forklifts from G&W can operate up to and beyond 16 hours on a single charge. Highly efficient forklifts mean less downtime for your fleet.
Energy Efficient
Electric forklifts are an energy efficient alternative to gas-powered trucks. There are less emissions, which improves air quality and generates less heat and noise for a more enjoyable work space.
More Compact
Electric-powered forklifts are much more compact than gas-powered lifts. This offers benefits in tight spaces, narrow aisles and even frees up facility space.
