Company Overview
About Raymond Headquartered in Greene, New York, USA
The Raymond Corporation was established in 1922, when George Raymond Sr. acquired a foundry in the village of Greene, New York. The company soon moved into lift truck production and became a material handling pioneer, credited with innovations including the double-faced wooden pallet, the hydraulic hand pallet truck and early narrow-aisle electric lift trucks that reshaped warehouse operations.
Raymond built its reputation on electric-powered warehouse trucks engineered for efficient, high-density storage. Its product line covers reach trucks, order pickers, pallet trucks, counterbalanced forklifts and swing-reach trucks, along with telematics, fleet management and warehouse optimization technologies. The brand is especially associated with narrow-aisle and very-narrow-aisle applications that maximize storage space.
Today Raymond is a member of the Toyota Industries family of companies, operating within Toyota Material Handling while retaining its own brand, engineering and manufacturing base in New York. The company continues to focus on electric lift trucks, energy solutions and intelligent intralogistics, and it marked its 100th anniversary in 2022.
In Canada, Raymond electric forklifts and warehouse trucks are widely used in distribution centers, cold storage and manufacturing facilities, where their energy efficiency and space-saving designs suit high-throughput operations. Machines are supported through Raymond's North American sales and service network and are common in material handling rental and lease fleets.

Why Canada Chooses Raymond
Raymond in the Canadian Construction Market
North American-built equipment has always had a natural home in Canadian construction. Raymond'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 Raymond 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 Raymond-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 Raymond machines - block heaters, battery isolators, cold-grade hydraulic fluids, and heated cab packages - are not optional extras on Canadian worksites; they are standard expectations. Raymond 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 Raymond equipment through HeavyRentals.ca gives you access to owner-maintained machines from across Canada. Our platform's verified owner network means every Raymond 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 Raymond 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. Raymond 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 Raymond 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. Raymond 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 Raymond through HeavyRentals.ca, you're getting market-certified equipment from verified Canadian owners.

Rental Advantage
Why Rent Raymond 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 Raymond 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.
Raymond 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 Raymond 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 Raymond 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.
Raymond maintains an established Canadian dealer network through Available through Canadian material handling dealers, ensuring parts and factory support are available in every major market - adding an additional layer of confidence when renting Raymond equipment from verified owners on our platform.
