Rent Forklifts in Bern – Electric, Diesel & Heavy-Duty up to 33 t

Warehouse operations in Buempliz-Bethlehem, machinery relocation at the Wankdorf site, set-up and dismantling on the BERNEXPO grounds or construction work across the canton of Bern: Luibl Rental delivers rental forklifts for every type of application directly to your site – with our own low-loader fleet, without depending on external hauliers. Our fleet ranges from compact electric forklifts for indoor hall applications to diesel heavy-duty forklifts with a lifting capacity of up to 33 tonnes. All machines are maintained in line with SUVA requirements and are handed over ready for use with complete service documentation.

Electric forklifts – for warehousing, production and indoor operation

Electric counterbalance forklifts are the first choice when goods are moved in warehouses, distribution centres or production facilities in the Bern region. They operate with zero local emissions and low noise – relevant for businesses working indoors and with strict requirements for air quality in enclosed spaces. The Luibl Rental fleet offers electric forklifts from 1.8 to 10 tonnes lifting capacity, including models from EP (EFL182, EFL352, EFL382, CPD50F8 Li) and Hyundai (30BH-9, 50B-9). Lift heights of up to 6 m are available; several models are fitted with non-marking tyres for light-coloured industrial floors.

Diesel counterbalance forklifts – for construction, outdoor sites and industry

For demanding outdoor use on construction sites in the canton of Bern – goods handling in Wankdorf, industrial estates such as Ausserholligen or changing construction lots – diesel counterbalance forklifts are the right choice. Luibl Rental stocks the Manitou MI series (3.5 to 10 tonnes, triplex mast up to 6 m) as well as Kalmar DCG models (16 t to 33 t). Modern particulate filters are fitted as standard.

Rough terrain and heavy-duty forklifts

For uneven ground, outdoor storage areas and construction sites around Bern, rough terrain forklifts with all-wheel drive are available: Manitou M30-4 (3 t) and M50-4 (5 t) as well as Ausa C300H x4 and C500H x4 (3 t and 5 t all-wheel drive respectively). For exceptionally heavy loads – machinery relocation, structural steelwork, heavy-goods logistics – the rental fleet covers lifting capacity classes up to 33 tonnes (Kalmar DCG330-12).

Luibl Rental operates its own low-loader fleet – no third-party providers, direct coordination through a dedicated contact person. That means reliable delivery dates and a prompt response even when a machine is needed at short notice. Delivery and collection in the greater Bern area and across the canton of Bern are handled punctually and without complications.

In Switzerland, operating a forklift commercially is subject to clear requirements: under the SUVA guidelines and the Ordinance on the Prevention of Accidents and Occupational Diseases (VUV), operating personnel must be adequately instructed and qualified for the machine they use. SUVA recommends a recognised forklift licence for commercial operations. On request, Luibl Rental provides the technical documentation and instruction materials for all rental machines. Luibl will also be glad to point you towards certified training providers in your region, with no obligation.
