KEZAD, still widely called KIZAD, runs on forklifts. Warehouses, container yards and light-industrial tenants around Khalifa Port need the same machine every shift, for months at a time, and a gap in supply stops the operation. Maxtgc supplies forklifts to KEZAD on two models: on-demand hire from our Mussafah yard, typically within 2 to 3 hours of a confirmed booking, or equipment stationed at your facility on a long-term contract.

For occasional needs, such as a seasonal peak or a shipment heavier than your own forklift can take, on-demand hire is the right fit. For anything you use daily, a stationed forklift at a fixed monthly rate, with standard maintenance and breakdown replacement included, removes both the repeat delivery cost and the risk of a machine being unavailable on the day.

The fleet runs from 3-tonne forklifts for pallets through to 25-tonne machines for loaded containers and heavy freight, with telehandlers available where goods have to be placed at reach or the ground outside the warehouse is unfinished.

Typical forklift rental jobs in KEZAD

  • Container stuffing and unloading at warehouse loading bays
  • Palletised freight moves for third-party logistics operators
  • Yard stacking and staging for import and export cargo
  • Standing forklift cover for multi-shift warehouse operations
  • Material handling for new plot construction and fit-out

What to plan for in KEZAD

Gate access and driver clearance

KEZAD facilities manage who comes through the gate. Give us your zone, plot number, delivery gate and any pass your facility needs for the driver and vehicle, and we arrange clearance before the truck leaves.

On-demand or stationed

If the same forklift would be on your site more than a few days a month, compare the monthly contract rate against separate hires. Long-term rates typically start from one month, with better pricing at three, six and twelve months.

Indoor floor or outdoor yard

A warehouse forklift and a rough-terrain forklift are different machines. Tell us whether the work is on a finished floor, an outdoor yard or both, and we will send the right one.

The forklift rental fleet we send to KEZAD

Diesel Forklifts

3–25 ton

Counterbalance diesel forklifts for warehouse handling, container stuffing and unloading, workshop moves and yard stacking.

Rough-Terrain Forklifts

Site & yard use

Forklifts built for unpaved yards, sand and construction sites where a warehouse forklift would bog down.

Side-Shift & Extended-Boom

On request

Side-shift carriages for precise placement in tight racking, and extended-boom variants for longer or awkward loads.

Telehandlers

Up to 17m reach

When the load has to go up or out rather than just across, a rough-terrain telehandler bridges forklift and crane work.

Questions, answered

Forklift Rental in KEZAD: FAQs

How quickly can a forklift reach a KEZAD warehouse?

From our Mussafah yard, typically within 2 to 3 hours of a confirmed booking. For daily use, a stationed forklift on a long-term contract removes the travel time altogether.

What is the minimum term for a long-term forklift contract in KEZAD?

Long-term rates typically start from one month, with better pricing at three, six and twelve-month terms. Shorter on-demand hire is available for occasional needs.

Is KEZAD the same as KIZAD?

KIZAD is the earlier name. In September 2022 it was brought together with ZonesCorp as KEZAD Group, Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi. Drivers and gate staff understand either name.
