Buying Considerations in Los Angeles
CARB Regulations (2026) – Starting in 2026, California restricts the sale and purchase of most new LSI (internal combustion) forklifts and requires fleets to phase out existing LSI forklifts through 2038. Electric forklifts are increasingly the standard for new purchases in California.
New vs. Used – New forklifts offer the latest technology (lithium-ion, telematics) and full warranty. Used forklifts offer significant savings (often 30–70% less) but require thorough inspection of hours, maintenance history, and battery health.
Dealer Coverage – Los Angeles has authorized dealers for Toyota (1 Source Material Handling, Toyota Material Handling Solutions), Hyster/Yale (Medley Equipment, Johnson Lift/Hyster), Crown (Crown Lift Trucks direct), Clark (Clarklift of Los Angeles, Cal-Lift), Komatsu (Komatsu Forklift of Long Beach), Hangcha (Chino direct warehouse), Konecranes (via Toyota Material Handling Solutions), and multi-brand specialists (Forklift & Parts of LA).
Konecranes Partnership (2026) – Konecranes Lift Trucks entered a new distributor agreement with Toyota Material Handling Solutions covering Southern California, with a special focus on the Los Angeles-Long Beach logistics corridor. The partnership supports the rollout of electric forklift solutions.
Service and Support – Forklift & Parts of LA offers bilingual English/Spanish service. Crown operates as a direct extension of the manufacturer with factory-level support. Johnson Lift/Hyster provides training and maintenance services in Southern California.
Financing – Available through most dealers. Forklift & Parts of LA accepts American Express, Cash, Check, Discover, Mastercard, and Visa.
Auction Buying – Most auction units are sold “as-is, where-is” with no warranty. Factor in buyer‘s premiums and transport costs.
