TELEHANDLER30
Still warmThe North American telehandler market
is thriving. With double-digit growth
on our annual TELEHANDLER30
listing, the rental industry’s versatile
equipment shows no signs of slowing
down. Lindsey Anderson reports.
T here has been plenty of action across the North American rental industry over the last year. Acquisitions and bolt-ons are
propelling businesses and overall construction work remains steady. The TELEHANDLER30 backs this up with outstanding growth for 2019

at 20.19 percent from last year’s 64,543 units to this year’s 77,576.
The top five companies make up the largest chunk of the T30, with 66,494 units representing the big players; this showcases CapEx spend and acquired fleets that toppled the entire T30 last year.
For the most part, there aren’t major surprises or ranking upsets on the TELEHANDLER30 this year. United Rentals sits at the top with 31,420 units in its fleet, a 25.5 percent increase over last year. The company recently reported a good start to 2019, with rental revenue rising by 23 percent to a first-quarter record of $1.8 billion. This represents a 7.2 percent year-on-year increase.
United reaffirmed its full-year outlook, with total revenue for 2019 expected to be between $9.15 and $9.55 billion. Capital expenditure is
12,000-pound maximum

forecast in the range from $1.4 billion to $1.55 billion, after gross purchases of $2.15 billion to $2.3 billion.
Sunbelt, HERC, H&E and Ahern make up the remaining top five, with Ahern and H&E swapping between fourth and fifth compared to last year (H&E taking the number four spot.) H&E increased its telehandler fleet by more than 31 percent due to regional acquisitions and a more buoyant oil and gas market. Ahern saw double-digit growth of 10.2 percent from 4,513 telehandlers to 4,974.
Manufacturers’ views“The 12,000-pound maximum capacity with 55 feet of maximum reach is heavily populated within rental and end user fleets throughout North America,” says Matthew Elvin, CEO of Xtreme Manufacturing. “End users have experience when renting and choose to purchase the machine that their operators have been trained on as well as had the most
field experience operating.”While the competition between capacity
classes is quite close for Skyjack, the company says its largest demand from within the rental industry is for 10,000-pound-capacity machines. Skyjack offers two machines that fall within this category, the SJ1044 TH and SJ1056 TH, which both have a lift capacity of 10,000 pounds and bring materials to maximum heights of 44 feet, 3 inches and 56 feet, 3 inches, respectively.
“Between the two machines, the SJ1056 TH has proven to be the one telehandler that all rental stores make sure to have in their inventory,” says Braden Spence, product manager for Skyjack. “Being a true pick-and-place machine, the SJ1056 TH features an industry-leading load chart allowing the operator to lift 6,000 pounds to 56 feet, 3 inches and 3,000 pounds to 42 feet, 6 inches forward reach, all with outriggers down. The 10,000-pound category class has proven the test of time and has continued to be the most popular telehandler capacity class in the North American market.”
Continued optimism? As we look forward into 2019, most everyone ALH spoke with expressed a positive outlook for the telehandler market. The industry can anticipate the telehandler market to be positively affected by the continued strength in the construction industry. Additionally, with rental houses and end users becoming increasingly aware of the telehandler’s versatility beyond just a pick-and-place machine, this will continue to contribute to this market’s growth. ■
