Forklift Fuel
CES – The First Choice for Forklift Propane Gas in NY, NJ & PA
When your business counts on propane gas for the life-blood that keeps your forklifts running – then Combined Energy Services is the partner to keep your vehicles running and budgets met.
Since 1968 we’ve been taking care of commercial customers all over the tri-state region with:
Propane exchange cylinders for forklifts & industrial vehicles
Prompt deliveries of propane based on weekly automatic exchanges or “call-in” as needed
Forklift Propane – Advantages of Propane: Propane powered forklifts offer numerous advantages over electric, diesel and gasoline powered alternatives. These reasons explain why over 80% of the spark ignition forklift market is fueled by propane gas. There are now over 500,000 forklifts running on propane gas in the USA today.
No Hassle Refueling: The time required to refuel is minimal when compared to electric or natural gas models. It takes only 5 minutes to change a propane cylinder whereas an electric forklift can take up to eight hours to recharge. At Combined Energy Services and our sister welding supply company – Allgas Welding Supply have service available 24 hours per day and regularly scheduled deliveries during the week as needed.
Budget Friendly! Forklifts by propane are the most economical to operate especially when compared to expensive electricity in the tri-state region. Add in “demand charges” when the battery chargers kick on and make the meter spin driving up your monthly bill tremendously. Propane can save over 60% vs electric in the tri-state region. In addition — we can FIX the price of propane for up to 12 months so your budget can remain FLAT. In addition, propane powered forklifts earn a tax credit due to the cleanliness of their combustion engines. To learn more – click here.
Maintenance: Since propane produces lower amounts of engine deposits than gasoline or diesel, maintenance is minimized. Propane engines often last twice as long as their gasoline counterparts.
Theft resistant and environmentally friendly: Propane forklift cylinders are less likely to walk off your property than cans of gasoline & diesel fuel in addition to eliminating the chance of a spill during refueling.
Safety: All propane forklifts have automatic shut-off safety features that stop the flow of fuel in the event of an accident. In addition, all propane tanks, fuel lines and carburetion components are required to meet strict national safety specifications. With our cylinder exchange service, CES eliminates the need for dispensing propane on your property saving you valuable time for the employees. We carefully inspect cylinders each time they are returned to our facility for refills, remove dangerous cylinders from service, replace or repair leaky valves and replace o-rings. Furthermore, we’re happy to provide propane safety training to your staff on the handling, storage, replacement and usage of propane gas cylinders.
Service: This is what truly separates CES from the big nationwide companies that forgot what giving great service was long ago. Their focus is on the dividends to their stockholders, not taking care of the customers we’ve thankfully found. We promise to deliver a level of service that’s above & beyond what you get from any other propane or gas supplier in the region. We will work harder since we have a vested interest in your business’ success.
