Need to hire specialist forklift machinery in Cannock?

Davison Forklift Ltd provides forklift hire, forklift sales, and materials handling solutions to businesses across Cannock and the surrounding Staffordshire area. Based in Shifnal, East Shropshire — approximately 22 miles from Cannock — we deliver quality equipment and dependable service to clients throughout Staffordshire, supported by over 45 years of industry experience. As an established, locally rooted forklift specialist, we offer the kind of responsive, personal service that national providers simply can’t match.

Cannock is one of the most significant industrial and logistics hubs in the West Midlands region. With major distribution centres, warehousing operations, and manufacturing facilities clustered around Kingswood Lakeside Business Park and the broader A5 and M6 Toll corridor, demand for reliable materials handling equipment in the area is high. Whether you’re running a large distribution operation, a manufacturing facility, or a construction project in and around Cannock, Hednesford, Rugeley, or Burntwood, Davison Forklift Ltd has the fleet and expertise to keep your site moving.

We offer a comprehensive range of forklift hire solutions including diesel, LPG (gas), and electric counterbalance forklifts. Whether you need a machine for a day to cover a short-term need or a longer arrangement for ongoing operations, our hire fleet is thoroughly maintained and safety-checked before every deployment. Next-day delivery to Cannock is available on many hire units (subject to availability), so you’re rarely waiting long when you need equipment fast.

Our hire fleet extends well beyond standard counterbalance forklifts. We supply reach trucks, powered pallet trucks, electric stackers, order pickers, side loaders, and heavy-duty machines for high-capacity applications. For outdoor and construction use, we provide telehandlers and rough terrain forklifts. Agricultural machinery and tractor hire is also available, giving businesses across the Cannock area a single, reliable point of contact for a broad range of equipment needs.

As authorised UK dealers for Clark and Ausa, we sell new and used forklifts for businesses where ownership makes more sense than hire. Our team can advise on the best approach — whether short-term hire, long-term rental, lease, or outright purchase — based on your operational requirements and budget.

Beyond hire and sales, Davison Forklift Ltd offers comprehensive forklift servicing, planned maintenance contracts, and rapid-response breakdown support for all makes and models. Our engineers cover Cannock and the wider Staffordshire and West Midlands region, carrying genuine spare parts for leading brands including Clark, Hyster, Linde, Doosan, and Lansing. Fast, effective repairs and minimal downtime are what we’re built around.

We carry out LOLER inspections and thorough examinations of lifting equipment to keep your fleet compliant with current UK safety regulations. Flexible finance options — including lease purchase and lease rental — are also available for businesses looking to invest in equipment without committing to a large upfront payment.
