Rent Buy or Lease - Buying a New Scissor Lift
Purchasing a Scissor Lift
Aerial lift prices
A standard new 19' scissor lift might have a list price of $16,000, but that's not the price you'd pay on the street. Dealer prices are closer to $11,000 or $12,000. A new 30' scissor lift will set you back around $21,000.
Warranties
You can expect a basic manufacturer's warranty on new aerial lifts. As with cars, you may get longer warranties on some subsystems: two or three years on the powertrain, for example. Used lifts will rarely come with anything more than a 30-day guarantee – and low-end used lifts are often sold "as-is."
Tips on Purchasing Equipment:
Don't buy based on price only
Focus on choosing a quality dealer
Buy a lift that meets all your needs
Keep up on maintenance
Watch out for user modifications
Check the odometer or hour meter
Measure before you shop
