"I want to sell my nonresaleable, rental/lease-up, user-purchased forklift trucks." "Do I have to turn my old forklift trucks that don't work into scrap metal?" If you are considering selling or disposing of used forklifts in the Kansai or Osaka area, please read this article.
Alai Auction Kansai is a great market for used forklift truck sellers. We will summarize Alai Kansai's strengths as an export hub and its low fees, which are not well known.
Reason #1: Close proximity to the ports of Osaka and Kobe = "Serious Purchase by Overseas Buyers"
The most important factor in the sale of forklifts is "who will buy them". Although domestic demand is at a plateau, demand for Japanese forklifts is strong in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and other regions, and the "enthusiasm" of buyers can drive up prices.
The Alai Auction Kansai site (Taisho-ku, Osaka) has good access to the Port of Osaka, a major export hub, making it easy for overseas buyers to reduce transportation costs (storage costs) to the port. This cost savings translates into buying power, which in turn creates room for higher bidding prices.
Reason #2: Forklift commission structure
Our auction system ensures cost transparency by clearly "fixing" the fee structure. This allows us to accurately calculate the expected proceeds from the sale of forklifts, providing an "environment that facilitates reliable financial planning".
| Item | Cost (excluding tax) | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Listing fee | 15,000 yen | Mini class (under 1.5t): ¥12,000 |
| Contract fee | 22,000 yen | Only if the car is sold. |
| Total | 37,000 yen | Total amount to be borne by the seller at the time of sale (image) |
*Fees and classifications are subject to revision. Please be sure to check the latest fee schedule in practice.
"Finding value in the market" is a cost-effective choice. Commission prices for handlifts from small machines under 1 ton to handlifts are set in line with "value," and we are working to create an environment that facilitates the use of sale, including large machines.
Reason #3: Even forklifts that do not work have "market value"
Don't give up on forklifts that "won't start". Unlike huge heavy machinery, ordinary forklift trucks (2-5 tons) are easy to handle and can be easily traded even if they are inoperable.
By handling a variety of commercial auctions, we are able to attract not only forklift specialists in Japan, but also a wide range of buyers for each type of commercial equipment.
In other words, the range of needs is directly linked to the value, leading to the establishment of a market for the sale of not only actual working equipment but also immovable equipment.
- Deadline for delivery: Strictly 17:00 on Thursday of the week prior to the Tuesday event (please make arrangements as early as possible).
