When racking goes higher than a counterbalance forklift can work, a reach truck is the answer — and when the need is a peak season or a single contract, renting one beats buying. ARAS Developments FZE rents electric reach trucks from Jebel Ali Free Zone, the same machines we sell and service, with delivery across the UAE.
Reach trucks built for narrow aisles and high racking
Reach trucks work where floor space is expensive: aisles too narrow for a counterbalance truck and racking that runs well above six metres. Our rental units are battery electric, suited to multi-shift indoor work in distribution centres, cold stores and third-party logistics warehouses. If you are still deciding between machine types, our electric reach truck page explains capacities and lift heights, and the team will tell you plainly if a standard forklift or a VNA truck suits your aisles better.
Flexible hire, honest quoting
Daily, weekly and monthly terms are available; monthly rates work out the most economical per day. Because reach truck requirements vary so much — lift height, load at height, aisle width, shift pattern — we quote each requirement individually and reply the same working day. Renting is also the practical way to trial a reach truck before committing to purchase, and hire can be discussed toward buying if you keep the machine.
Support from our own JAFZA team
Every rental unit leaves our yard inspected, and breakdown support during the hire comes from our own technicians based in Jebel Ali. Delivery covers Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. Reach trucks are part of the wider fleet on our forklift rental in Dubai and the UAE page — mixed-equipment projects can run on a single agreement.
