Company Overview
About Combilift Headquartered in Monaghan, County Monaghan, Ireland
Combilift was founded in 1998 by Martin McVicar and Robert Moffett in County Monaghan, Ireland. The pair set out to solve a common warehouse problem: moving long and bulky loads safely in tight spaces. Their answer was the original Combi, the world's first all-wheel-drive, multidirectional engine-powered forklift, a design that let a single machine carry lengthy materials sideways and maneuver through narrow aisles.
Today the company builds a broad range of material handling equipment, including multidirectional and sideloader forklifts, articulated trucks, pedestrian stackers, straddle carriers, and container handlers, with capacities spanning roughly 1 to 150 tonnes. Its products are aimed at industries that handle awkward or heavy loads, such as timber, steel, precast concrete, and general manufacturing, where saving floor space and reducing product damage are priorities.
Combilift is the largest manufacturer of multidirectional, sideloading, and articulated forklifts in the world, with more than 95,000 units in service across 85-plus countries. The firm invested heavily in a large global headquarters and manufacturing plant in Monaghan and exports the vast majority of its output, building custom, tailored machines to order for customers worldwide.
In North America, Combilift operates a regional headquarters in Greensboro, North Carolina, and supports Canadian customers through an established dealer network that includes companies such as Leavitt Machinery and All-Lift in Ontario. Its space-saving forklifts are widely used in Canadian lumber yards, steel service centres, and manufacturing facilities, making the brand a practical fit for rental fleets serving those sectors.

Why Canada Chooses Combilift
Combilift in the Canadian Construction Market
North American-built equipment has always had a natural home in Canadian construction. Combilift's engineering teams develop machines with the full range of Canadian job site conditions in mind - from coastal British Columbia's wet, clay-heavy soils to the frozen ground of northern Manitoba, the sandy terrain of Southern Ontario aggregate operations, and the remote Arctic sites accessible only by ice road. This continent-native understanding of conditions translates to equipment that simply works in Canada's challenging environments without extensive modification.
The Combilift dealer network across Canada is one of the most comprehensive in the industry, with authorized service centers in every province offering factory-trained technicians, stocked parts depots, and rapid response support. For large contractors running a Combilift-dominant fleet, this infrastructure means predictable maintenance costs, fast parts availability, and confidence that manufacturer support is never far away.
The cold-weather capabilities engineered into Combilift machines - block heaters, battery isolators, cold-grade hydraulic fluids, and heated cab packages - are not optional extras on Canadian worksites; they are standard expectations. Combilift delivers these as baseline features across most of their line-up, reducing the setup time and outfitting costs that come with less climate-conscious competitors.
Renting Combilift equipment through HeavyRentals.ca gives you access to owner-maintained machines from across Canada. Our platform's verified owner network means every Combilift unit listed has been maintained to the standards that protect your production and your crew's safety. Daily, weekly, and monthly rental options give you the flexibility to scale your fleet to project demands - with no long-term capital commitment.

Canadian Job Sites
Where Combilift Equipment Performs Across Canada
Urban Infill & Residential
Tight access, noise restrictions, and proximity to existing structures define urban construction in Canadian cities. Compact equipment excels where larger machines simply cannot operate.
Landscaping & Site Prep
From residential landscaping to commercial site preparation across Canada's suburbs, compact loaders and skid steers are the workhorses of smaller-scale earthmoving.
Utilities & Infrastructure
Municipal utility work - water main replacement, storm drain installation, and road cuts - frequently requires equipment small enough to work in live traffic corridors and tight rights-of-way.
Cold-Weather Readiness
Canada's winters test every piece of machinery. Temperatures in northern and central Canada regularly drop below -30°C, with extreme cold snaps reaching -50°C with windchill in some regions. Combilift equipment is built to start, operate, and maintain full productivity in these conditions - with hydraulic systems, engine cooling, and electrical systems engineered for extreme cold as a standard expectation, not an afterthought. On HeavyRentals.ca, Canadian Combilift owners maintain their machines with winter-grade fluids and cold-climate service packages so you get equipment that performs when temperatures plunge.
Regulatory Compliance
Canada's provincial and federal construction regulations set rigorous standards for equipment safety, emissions, and operator protection. Combilift machines certified for the Canadian market meet Transport Canada, CSA, and provincial WorkSafe regulations out of the factory. This compliance infrastructure gives contractors the confidence to deploy rented equipment on government contracts, municipal projects, and safety-audited job sites without modification or variance requests. When you rent Combilift through HeavyRentals.ca, you're getting market-certified equipment from verified Canadian owners.

Rental Advantage
Why Rent Combilift Instead of Buying?
Zero Depreciation
New heavy equipment depreciates 20-30% in its first year. Renting means you pay only for utilization - no balance sheet liability, no residual value risk on your fleet.
Right Machine Every Job
Different projects need different equipment configurations. Renting from HeavyRentals.ca means you can spec the exact Combilift model for the task - not make do with what you own.
No Maintenance Overhead
When you rent, maintenance is the owner's responsibility. Skip the dealer relationship management, service scheduling, and parts inventory that comes with ownership.
Scale With Your Pipeline
Whether you have one project or twelve running simultaneously, a rental approach scales your fleet instantly - add machines when busy, return them when idle. No fixed costs.
Combilift Rental for Canadian Projects
Canada's project-based construction economy - driven by short paving and building seasons, annual municipal budget cycles, and the boom-bust nature of resource extraction - is structurally well-suited to equipment rental. Contractors who rent their Combilift fleet through HeavyRentals.ca maintain the flexibility to scale operations seasonally without the long-term overhead of ownership.
For smaller contractors, municipalities, and first-time operators, renting also provides access to higher-specification Combilift machines than their capital budget could support through purchase. A tier-one excavator or high-capacity crane that would be unattainable as a purchase becomes an accessible weekly rental for a specific project phase.
Combilift maintains an established Canadian dealer network through Sold across Canada via dealers such as Leavitt Machinery and All-Lift, ensuring parts and factory support are available in every major market - adding an additional layer of confidence when renting Combilift equipment from verified owners on our platform.
