An LPG forklift is especially interesting when speed, flexibility and constant availability matter to you. In many practical situations, LPG is the ideal middle ground between an electric forklift and a diesel forklift. You benefit from powerful performance, quick refueling, and broad applicability for internal transport, loading and unloading, and outdoor yard work.
An LPG forklift can be quickly put back into use because refueling or changing the gas cylinder takes little time. This makes this machine very suitable for companies that have to move pallets, goods, or materials continuously.
For intensive work, LPG offers a powerful and practical solution. Consider loading and unloading trucks, working in outdoor areas, or a combination of indoor and outdoor use.
Are you looking for a machine for mixed use? Then LPG is often a very logical choice. For fully enclosed indoor spaces, we often recommend an electric version, depending on the situation on site.
Not every work environment requires the same drive. Therefore, it's wise to consider ventilation, duration of use, terrain, load weight, and how intensively the forklift is used.
| Feature | This pageLPG | AlternativeElectric | AlternativeDiesel |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best choice for | Mixed use indoors and outdoors, quick availability and working on without long charging times | Enclosed indoor spaces, warehouses and production where quiet, emission-free work matters | Heavy outdoor work, rough terrain and intensive use with higher tonnages |
| Capacity | 1.5 to 5 tonnes | 1.5 to 18 tonnes | 2.5 to 30 tonnes |
| Energy | Refuel or change the gas cylinder | Charging · Li-ion trickle charge | Think and work directly |
| Indoor use | Possible with sufficient ventilation | Yes, emission-free | Only briefly and with good ventilation |
| Emissions | Cleaner than diesel | Emission-free | Emissions — especially outdoors |
Go through these six points before you rent an LPG forklift. Include them in your request and we will recommend the right machine.
What is the heaviest load you really need to move, including a margin and any attachments?
Stacking, loading and unloading, or working with racking? That determines the mast. Lift heights up to 7,900 mm are possible.
How is the ventilation at the workplace? For fully enclosed spaces we often recommend an electric forklift instead.
Level shop floor, paving or outdoor terrain? The surface helps determine the tyres and the specification.
One day, a peak period or structural use? Per day, week or month; the monthly rate applies from 3 months.
Need a sideshift, fork positioner or a different mast? Let us know and we will include it in the proposal.
When you rent an LPG forklift, you don't just want a machine that is available, but above all one that works well and suits your work. That is why we think along with you about lifting capacity, lift height, duration of use and location.

Are you looking for a reliable LPG forklift for short or long-term use? We are happy to help you find a suitable solution, tailored to lifting capacity, lifting height, duration of use, and location.
An LPG forklift, also called a gas forklift, is a forklift truck with a combustion engine that runs on LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) from an exchangeable gas cylinder. According to the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), LPG consists of 90% propane and butane.
We rent out Hyundai LPG forklifts from 1.5 to 5 tonnes, from €70 per day (1.5 tonnes, excl. VAT); from 4 tonnes the price is on request, see the LPG forklift of 4 to 5 tonnes. The models up to and including 3.5 tonnes come from two Hyundai series with the same engine.
| Lifting capacity | Hyundai series | Engine | Power (ISO 1585) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.5, 1.8 and 2 tonnes | L-7M | HMC L4KB, 4 cylinders, 2,359 cc | 37.3 kW |
| 2.5, 3 and 3.5 tonnes | L-9A/LN-9A | HMC L4KB, 4 cylinders, 2,359 cc | 44.1 kW |
According to Hyundai, both series comply with the European Stage V emission standard; the engine has a fully electronically controlled LPG system with a catalytic converter and two lambda sensors. Turning radius, width and weight per model are shown in the table below.
Fuel is not included in the rental price: you arrange the gas cylinders yourself, from a gas supplier of your choice. You change an empty cylinder following the instructions of the gas supplier and the forklift's operating manual.
On the L-9A/LN-9A series (2.5 to 3.5 tonnes), Hyundai states that a beep and a warning light on the instrument panel signal when the cylinder is almost empty. In an emergency, the gas supply can be shut off with a switch.
According to the Dutch Environment and Planning Information Point (IPLO), storing more than 125 litres of flammable ADR class 2 gases in gas cylinders is an environmentally harmful activity (article 3.27 of the Dutch Environmental Activities Decree, Bal). The rules of the Dutch PGS 15 guideline then apply, and you notify the storage at least 4 weeks in advance. Ask your gas supplier how many litres a cylinder holds. Under PGS 15, IPLO mentions among others:
An LPG forklift burns gas and therefore produces exhaust gases. Outdoors, according to the RIVM, carbon monoxide dilutes quickly; indoors, the ventilation determines whether you can work with it responsibly.
According to the RIVM, carbon monoxide is formed by incomplete combustion, for example of gas. Motor vehicles pose a (very) limited risk outdoors; in a poorly ventilated room the carbon monoxide concentration can rise quickly. The Dutch Working Conditions Decree (Arbobesluit, article 6.2) requires sufficient unpolluted air at the workplace.
According to IPLO, the requirements for storing gas cylinders concern the stock; a cylinder connected to equipment counts as working stock. How much working stock is allowed depends, according to IPLO, on your situation. If in doubt, ask your municipality or environmental service.
Not if your storage falls under PGS 15: according to IPLO, the floor of the storage area is not lower than the surrounding floors and ground level, and a fire-safety storage cabinet is not placed in a basement.
The 1.5-tonne Hyundai 15L-7M. According to the Hyundai datasheet, it has a turning radius of 2,000 mm, is 1,070 mm wide and 2,155 mm high with the standard mast lowered.
