Long-Term Forklift Hire in Geelong
Flexible hire terms from one month to three years
Geelong Access Hire offers hire terms from one month to three years, across our full range of counterbalance forklifts, rough-terrain machines, and telehandlers. Every long-term hire includes scheduled servicing — you stay compliant and operational without managing maintenance yourself.


A Smarter Alternative to Ownership
No depreciation, no surprise repair bills, no compliance admin
For businesses whose forklift needs aren't permanent, or who want to match machine capability to the job without being locked into an asset, long-term hire delivers the same operational capability at a predictable weekly or monthly cost.
The Right Machine for Every Application

If you're not sure which machine suits your application, call us and we'll advise on the right fit. We'd rather you hire the right machine than one that doesn't do the job.

Is Long-Term Hire Right for Your Business?
Long-term hire suits a wide range of operations — from businesses replacing ageing equipment to teams scaling up for new projects. If any of the below apply, it's worth a call.
Fleet capacity can't keep up with increasing workloads or new contracts.
Opening a new warehouse, branch, or production line that needs equipment from day one.
Workloads fluctuate and you need the ability to scale up or down without owning assets.
Fixed weekly or monthly costs with no surprise repair bills or depreciation to absorb.
Current forklifts are unreliable or past their service life and replacement isn't in the budget.
Servicing, compliance checks, and safety admin all handled — nothing extra on your team.
Extended busy periods or long-running projects where short-term hire isn't practical.
Run a model in your operation for months before committing to a purchase decision.
