With the mining boom now well behind us, what you may be stuck with, if you’re in the forklift rental business, is several old forklifts that you may no longer have a use for.
It’s not like you can just hold on to a stock of old forklifts, Bobcats, Excavators, Tractors or Earth Moving Equipment. You’ve got to maintain the equipment as well – ensure their engines are running and serviced at all times. This costs money – assuming the Cost to Service each Old Forklift is $50 a month (petrol, cleaning, oil, engine, staff and service costs) – your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is $50 X 12 = $600. While the calculation is something you should work out yourself, what the Cost of Ownership should make you consider is the merit of holding on to – or selling – your fleet of forklifts.
They pay a pretty good price for them too. Depending on the condition of your forklift, you could receive anything for it that is up to $20,000. Which means you were getting top dollar Cash for Cars on the Car Removal.
It’s key to the credit rating and debt-servicing. If your credit rating goes down, it takes a long time to get it back up again. It’s not worth losing your credit rating and holding onto a stock that is costing you more than it’s delivering you by way of value and return.
