On EquipmentsFinder, lifting equipment means the machines that move loads around a yard, warehouse or site rather than the cranes that lift them to height: forklifts above all, with telehandlers, pallet trucks and scissor lifts alongside. Today 247 machines are listed for hire in this category from 110 suppliers, 1 of them verified, and 226 of those listings are forklifts. Dubai has 112 listings, Sharjah 68 and Abu Dhabi 52.
Browse by subcategory and emirate and contact the supplier through the phone or WhatsApp number on the listing, or post a request stating the load, lift height, duration and site so that suppliers across the UAE can respond. Requests are visible on the inquiry board. EquipmentsFinder charges renters nothing; the price agreed with the supplier is the full price.
The category is dominated by forklifts, and the most listed brands reflect that: Komatsu (46 listings), Caterpillar (43), Toyota (21), Heli (18), Mitsubishi (13), Hyundai (13) and JCB (11).
Forklifts make up 226 of the 247 listings. Diesel counterbalance trucks handle pallets, crates and steel in yards and on sites; electric models suit warehouses and indoor work where exhaust fumes are a problem. Capacity, mast height and tyre type (solid for rough yards, cushion for smooth floors) are the figures to check.
Telehandlers combine a forklift carriage with a telescopic boom, so they place loads at height and reach over obstacles, which makes them the usual choice for block, scaffold and roofing materials on construction sites. Eleven are listed today.
Pallet trucks, manual or powered, move palletised loads over short distances on flat floors and are often hired alongside a forklift for the last few metres inside a store. Five are listed.
Scissor lifts raise a work platform vertically for fit-out, electrical and maintenance work; three are listed in this category, and other aerial platforms have a category of their own. Chain hoists, winches, slings, jacks and lifting beams are not listed as subcategories today, so a posted request is the way to reach suppliers who hire out rigging gear.
Start with the heaviest load and where its centre of gravity sits. A forklift's rated capacity applies at a standard load centre, and long or wide loads reduce what it can safely carry, so state the load's dimensions as well as its weight. Then consider lift height, the floor or ground surface, aisle width and whether the machine works indoors, where an electric truck is usually required.
For loads that must be placed at height or over an obstacle, a telehandler replaces a forklift; for lifting people rather than materials, a scissor lift is the right machine. A supplier will match a machine to the job when the request includes these details.
Rates follow capacity and type, then duration. Among the 12 listings that publish a daily rate today, prices run from AED 30 to AED 1,800, with a typical rate around AED 800. Monthly rates on 13 listings run from AED 170 to AED 20,000, with a typical figure around AED 12,000.
The low end reflects small pallet trucks and the high end large forklifts and telehandlers, so compare within the type rather than across the category. Most listings show no price; the supplier quotes on request, usually excluding fuel, delivery and VAT.
The lifting equipment in Dubai comes to 112 machines listed today, serving warehouses, ports and construction sites, with the widest choice of forklift capacities and the majority of the telehandlers.
Abu Dhabi has 52 listings, 47 of them in Musaffah, where industrial yards and fabrication workshops keep forklifts in steady demand.
Sharjah has 68 listings, 59 in Sharjah city and 9 in Adh Dhayd, supplied mostly by the equipment yards in the emirate's industrial areas.
Fujairah has 8 listings, all in Al Fujairah City, Ajman 5, and Ras Al Khaimah and Umm Al Quwain 1 each. Forklifts travel on a flatbed, so a supplier in Dubai or Sharjah can usually deliver to the Northern Emirates for a transport charge.
Post a lifting equipment request with the load, lift height, site and dates, and suppliers across the UAE respond directly. Other categories are on the equipment rental hub, and machines for purchase are under lifting equipment for sale.

It depends on the machine type, capacity and hire length. Among the 12 listings that publish a daily rate today, prices run from AED 30 to AED 1,800, with a typical rate around AED 800; monthly rates have a typical figure around AED 12,000. Small pallet trucks sit at the bottom of that range and large forklifts and telehandlers at the top.
Lifting equipment on EquipmentsFinder covers forklifts, telehandlers, pallet trucks and scissor lifts, machines that carry loads across a floor or place them at modest heights. Cranes lift heavier loads to greater heights and radii and are listed in their own category, usually with a lift plan and rigging crew involved.
Inspection and certification arrangements vary by supplier and are confirmed when the supplier is contacted. Many sites require a current third-party inspection certificate for a forklift or telehandler before it is allowed to work, so ask the supplier for the machine's certificate and the operator's licence when agreeing the hire.
Daily hire is offered by some suppliers, and 12 listings currently publish a daily rate. For a single day, delivery and collection often cost as much as the hire itself, so short jobs near the supplier's yard work out cheapest. Confirm the minimum hire period, since some suppliers set a weekly minimum.
Dubai has 112 machines listed today, Sharjah 68, Abu Dhabi 52, Fujairah 8, Ajman 5, and Ras Al Khaimah and Umm Al Quwain 1 each. Suppliers deliver on a flatbed, and each listing shows where the machine is based, so filtering by emirate and confirming the delivery charge gives the clearest picture for a specific site.
It varies by supplier. Currently 2 listings in this category state that an operator is offered; most forklifts and telehandlers are hired as machine-only, with the renter providing an operator who holds a valid licence for the machine class. Confirm the arrangement and the operator's documents with the supplier before the machine arrives.
