How to choose scissor lifts

  • Hours matter more than year — a well-serviced high-hour machine beats a neglected low-hour one.
  • Confirm the attachment package is included in the quoted price; buckets and couplers are often not.
  • Budget for landed cost, not the headline price: shipping, duty and port charges are real money.
  • Ask what the machine was doing. Quarry duty and light site duty wear a machine very differently.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a used scissor lift cost?

Machines in our current scissor lifts listings run $3,493 to $38,041, clustering near $20,710. Year, recorded hours and attachment package drive most of that spread.

Can the machine be inspected before I pay?

Yes. Independent pre-purchase inspection can be arranged at the machine’s location, and we verify hour meter, serial number and service records before any deposit is taken.

Do you handle export shipping?

Container and roll-on/roll-off export handled end to end, duties quoted separately. We quote delivered cost to Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, South Africa and most other markets.

How do I confirm the hours are genuine?

We photograph the hour meter, cross-check it against the service records and the machine’s condition, and disclose anything that does not line up. A machine whose hours cannot be verified is described that way.
