Transport price
How much does
forklift transport?
The price of transporting a forklift depends on six factors. We calculate each transport individually. Send the model and the route — with no hidden costs.
01
Model, capacity and type of forklift
Front loaders (1.5–18t), side loaders, high rack forklifts, order forklifts. Electric vs. diesel/gas — battery capacity affects mass. Examples: Toyota 8FBE15, Linde E25, Still RX70, Crown FC5200, Hyster H3.0FT.
02
Masts and height
The height of the mast in the transport position determines the overall height of the machine on the trailer. Masts over 4.5m may require special loading access or a lower trailer type.
03
Route and distance
The price per kilometer varies depending on the country, road type and infrastructure costs along the route. Germany → BiH is a different calculation than Netherlands → Serbia or Italy → Croatia.
04
Delivery time
We organize standard transport within 48–72 hours. For urgent cases, express pickup within 24 hours is possible — with an additional cost for priority organization.
05
Connectors and adapters
Sideshifter, bucket, bale clamp, paper roll supports — we transport with the attachment mounted or advise on dismantling for a lower price.
06
Pickup location
Pick up directly from a warehouse, factory, repair shop, dealer or auction — each location has different availability for a lowbed trailer truck. Remote locations incur additional travel costs.
Please send the forklift model and route
The specific price arrives within 2 hours. No obligation, no hidden costs, no intermediaries.
What we transport
Vrste BAGERA
KOJE PREVOZIMO
From compact electric ones for closed warehouses to heavy industrial diesel ones for quarries and ports. Toyota, Linde, Still, Crown, Caterpillar, Jungheinrich, Hyster, Komatsu — every brand, every capacity.
Forklift trucks (1.5–10 t)
Forklift trucks (1.5–10 t)
The most common class. Electric and diesel. Examples: Toyota 8FBE15/8FBN25, Linde E20/E35, Still RX60/RX70, Crown FC5200, Jungheinrich EFG216/EFG425, Hyster H2.0FT/H3.5FT.

For logistics, ports and heavy industry. Examples: Caterpillar DP100/DP120/DP135, Komatsu FD100/FD130, Hyster H10XL/H16XL, Toyota 8FG150.
High-bay and side-by-side
High rack and side forklifts
High masts up to 12 m require special attention when loading. Examples: Linde R14/R20, Still FM-X14/FM-X20, Crown RR5200, Jungheinrich ETR335.
Electric and battery-powered
Electric and battery forklifts
Lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries — battery weight is included in the total weight. Up to 3 forklifts on one trailer. Ideal for dealers and repairers. ADR requirements for lead-acid batteries.
Special and industrial
Special and industrial forklifts
Forklifts for the paper industry, foundries, slaughterhouses and cold storage facilities — special configuration affecting loading and securing. Individual assessment.

Before transport
Preparing the forklift
for transport
Five steps that make loading faster and transport safer.
-
1
Lower the mast into the transport position
Tilt the mast back to the maximum and lower the forks to the ground — minimizes the overall height of the machine.
-
2
Secure the forks or connection
Secure the forks in the lowest position or temporarily dismantle them. Fix the connections with clamps.
-
3
Fuel max. ¼ tank capacity
It reduces the total mass and facilitates customs measurements when crossing the border.
-
4
Prepare technical documentation
Registration certificate, invoice/proof of ownership, any customs papers.
-
5
Electric forklift — discharge battery 30–50%
Transport vibrations can damage a fully charged battery. We transport lithium-ion batteries according to ADR regulations if necessary.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you
need to know
How much does it cost to transport a forklift from Germany?
Trošak transporta viljuškara iz Njemačke zavisi od modela, mase i dimenzija stroja, tačne lokacije preuzimanja, odabrane relacije, potrebnih dozvola i uslova na transportnoj ruti. Kod kompaktnih viljuškara, standardnih modela, težih strojeva i reach stackera zahtjevi transporta mogu se značajno razlikovati, posebno zbog ukupne mase i dimenzija.
Pošaljite upit za transport viljuškara s modelom, dimenzijama, masom i relacijom kako bismo mogli pripremiti preciznu procjenu.
From which countries do you most often transport forklifts?
We most often organize transport from Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria and Italy — where the largest auctions and dealers of used forklifts are located. We also collect from warehouses and auction sites such as BAS, Ritchie Bros and TruckScout.
How long does it take to transport a forklift from Germany?
Standard 2–3 business days for distances up to 1,500 km. Express transport is organized in 24–48 hours with an additional charge for priority organization.
Is the forklift insured during transport?
Yes. Every shipment is covered by CMR insurance from loading to delivery. For high-value forklifts, we offer additional cargo insurance — we negotiate according to the value of the machine.
Can you transport a broken forklift?
Yes. Forklifts that cannot drive themselves, we load them with a crane truck or our own ramp equipment on site. Let us know in advance if the machine can drive — we will organize the loading according to the situation.
How many forklifts can fit on one trailer?
Depending on the dimensions, 2–4 more compact forklifts can fit on one lowbed or flat trailer. Group shipping lowers the price per piece — ideal for dealers and renters who move a large number of machines at once.
Do you transport electric forklifts and reach stackers?
Yes. We transport electric forklifts with lithium-ion batteries according to ADR rules. We transport reach stackers and heavy forklifts over 10t on reinforced lowbed trailers — we plan each project individually according to weight and dimensions.
What documentation is required to transport a forklift?
A vehicle registration certificate or CE certificate of the machine and an invoice or proof of ownership are required. For export outside the EU — customs papers and EUR.1 or T1 document. We help with complete documentation if necessary.
Why choose Stronmet
Common mistakes
in transport
forklift
Here is what happens when you choose the wrong carrier — and how Stronmet prevents each of these problems.
✕
Wrong trailer for the dimensions
Standard trailer arrives at site — forklift with mast raised or reach stacker cannot be loaded. Transport is delayed, new arrival of the real vehicle is charged. Loss: 2–5 days.
✓
Stronmet checks dimensions and weight before arrival. Flatbed, step-frame or lowbed — we select the correct trailer based on forklift model and mast height, not guesswork on the spot.
✕
Poor securing of masts and forks
The forklift moves during the journey, the mast tilts forward or the forks slide due to insufficient straps. Damage occurs to the mast, hydraulics or bodywork. No coverage — the carrier says "it was insured".
✓
Every loading process is photographed and documented. We fix the mast in the transport position, secure the forks with special pins. Every transport is covered by CMR insurance — from loading to delivery.
✕
Delays without explanation
The forklift is "on the way somewhere" — the warehouse manager does not know where the machine is or when it will arrive. Warehouse operations are at a standstill, workers are waiting, every day of downtime means a direct cost.
✓
GPS tracking is active throughout the entire journey. The truck's position is available at all times. One contact that responds — no searching for the driver, no waiting for a callback.
✕
Unexpected costs on the invoice
Agreed on the price of transport — and the invoice comes with "additional costs" that you didn't know about. Fuel, tunnels, waiting for loading, "administration". The final bill is 30–50% higher.
✓
Price agreed in advance — that is the price on the invoice. No fine print, no additional costs. We tell you everything that goes into the calculation before confirming the transport.
Stronmet eliminates each of these risks — with one single contact.
