When you’re in a construction business, having a reliable telescopic forklift—known as a telehandler—becomes an indispensable part of your job. This versatile machinery can be used to pick and move heavy loads along with lift and place for wood, brick or trusses. ABC Equipment Rental & Sales has serviced Northeastern, OH, and is based out of Brunswick and Avon Ohio with these reliable forklifts and equipment rentals, carrying brands such as Kubota®Construction Equipment, Gehl®, Genie®, JLG, Mustang®, Wacker Neuson, Towmaster and Honda®. Below, their experienced staff lists the top three reasons telehandlers can become the most versatile piece of equipment on any project big or small.

Top 3 Benefits Telehandlers Offer Construction Projects

1. Ability to Navigate Rough Terrain

Telehandlers can be driven over almost any kind of uneven terrain, no matter how soft or hard the ground is. This capability makes the telehandler a popular option at farms, construction sites, and any other site where heavy loads will be moved over uneven surfaces. Their three different steering modes also make maneuvering your load a breeze.

2. Placing items up to 55” in the air

Telehandlers are rated in the amount of weight they can lift, and the height they can lift. For example, a 634 means six thousand pounds and up to thirty-four feet up in the air. These are jobs which used to require a crane and an operator but can now be done with a Telehandler and a laborer.

3. Varied Attachments & Rotations

Telehandlers are useful for a broad range of functions due to the array of attachments that can be fastened to their booms. Along with their rotational abilities, Telehandlers have the ability to carry extremely heavy loads up to ten thousand pounds (in our fleet, up to twenty thousand in production) and travel across the site with them. Some of the attachments are Crane Jib’s, Carpet Poles, Material Buckets, Man Baskets and much more.
