Forklifts — New & Used in the Lehigh Valley
Lehigh Valley Pallet Racking — a division of Alliance Material Handling — sells new and used forklifts to warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturers across the Lehigh Valley. We are a factory dealer for Bobcat and Clark lift trucks and carry a rotating inventory of quality-inspected used lifts from all major brands. Whether you need a single 3,000 lb electric walkie for a tight cold-storage aisle or a 40,000 lb pneumatic-tire diesel for the I-78 distribution corridor container yard, we spec the truck to your load, aisle width, floor, and duty cycle — then deliver, service, and support it locally. Buying racking and a lift together from one Lehigh Valley team means one point of contact, one delivery, and a system designed to work as a whole.
- One Lehigh Valley team for racking and the lift that works it
- Used lifts save 40–60% versus new for lighter-duty operations
- Local parts and service techs — usually on site within four hours
- One-day truck reach to roughly 100 million consumers

Application Review
We look at your loads, aisle widths, lift heights, floor condition, shifts per day, and environment (dry, cold, wash-down, hazardous) to shortlist the right class of truck.
New vs. Used Match
For single-shift, lighter-duty work a quality-inspected used Bobcat or Clark often makes sense; for heavy multi-shift duty we spec new with a warranty and planned-maintenance plan.
Delivery & Support
We deliver anywhere in the Lehigh Valley, orient your operators, and set you up with local parts, service, and OSHA-required operator training from the same team.
// Fit check
Is it right for you?
// Choose it when
- You are standing up or expanding a Lehigh Valley warehouse and need lifts to match new racking
- Your current fleet is aging out and repair costs are climbing
- You need a specialty configuration — reach, freezer, explosion-proof, high-capacity
- You want one local vendor for equipment, service, and parts
// Consider alternatives when
- A very short-term or one-off need — ask us about rentals instead
- You only need occasional pallet moves — a pallet jack may be all you need

Forklifts — New & Used questions
01 Do you sell new and used forklifts in the Lehigh Valley?
Yes. Lehigh Valley Pallet Racking, a division of Alliance Material Handling, sells both new Bobcat and Clark forklifts and quality-inspected used lift trucks from all major brands, region-wide — Allentown, Easton, Bethlehem, and across Lehigh and Northampton Counties. Every used lift is inspected before sale. Call (610) 000-0000.
02 How much does a forklift cost in the Lehigh Valley?
A quality used 5,000 lb warehouse forklift typically runs $12,000–$22,000, while a comparable new Bobcat or Clark lift runs $28,000–$45,000+ depending on power, tires, and mast. Heavy-capacity and specialty lifts cost more. Financing and fleet-lease options are available through Alliance Material Handling. We quote firm pricing after a short application review.
03 Should I buy a new or used forklift?
Used makes sense for single-shift, lighter-duty operations and saves 40–60% up front. Buy new for heavy multi-shift duty, specialty needs, or when uptime is critical and you want a full warranty and planned maintenance. Lehigh Valley Pallet Racking stocks both and will give you an honest recommendation based on your hours and duty cycle.
04 Do you service the forklifts you sell?
Yes. Our Lehigh Valley service technicians provide planned maintenance, emergency repair, and OSHA operator training, and carry common Bobcat, Clark, and all-brand parts. For production-impacting breakdowns we can usually dispatch within four hours across Allentown, Easton, Bethlehem, and surrounding areas. See our Forklift Service & Repair page for details.
05 What forklift do I need for my warehouse?
It depends on your heaviest load, your narrowest aisle, your lift height, your floor and environment, and how many shifts you run. Electric cushion-tire lifts suit smooth indoor slabs and tight aisles; pneumatic IC lifts handle docks, yards, and rough surfaces. We assess all of that on a short site visit before recommending a truck.
