    Buying Guide

    Refurbished Cherry Pickers for Sale in South Africa

    Buying a refurbished cherry picker can give a business access to established JLG equipment without approaching the purchase in the same way as a brand-new machine. The important point is to match the machine to the work rather than choosing on working height alone.

    Before buying, consider the required platform height, horizontal outreach, up-and-over clearance, platform capacity, machine dimensions, ground conditions and the way the equipment will be transported to site. Maintenance history, machine condition, parts availability and supporting documentation are also important when assessing used or refurbished access equipment.

    RN Access Solutions specialises in cherry picker service, maintenance and refurbishment, as well as load testing and parts. The company services customers countrywide. These capabilities provide useful technical support when evaluating access equipment for sale.

    Working height Choose a machine that reaches the required level using the manufacturer’s stated specification.
    Horizontal outreach Consider how far the platform needs to reach from the machine position.
    Platform capacity Check the manufacturer’s rated capacity for the machine configuration.
    Machine condition Review condition, maintenance information and available documentation.
    Site access Check dimensions, ground conditions, turning space and transport requirements.
    Service support Consider parts, maintenance, inspection and ongoing support after purchase.
    New Machine Sourcing

    New Cherry Picker and Boom Lift Sourcing

    If the required machine is not available in the current refurbished selection, RN Access Solutions can assist with sourcing new access equipment according to the required machine type and specification.

    When requesting a new machine, provide the required working height, horizontal outreach, platform capacity, access conditions, application and location. This helps identify the appropriate equipment configuration for the job.

    JLG Boom Lift Types

    Articulating and Telescopic Boom Lifts

    The current selection includes articulating boom lifts and a telescopic boom lift, allowing buyers to compare reach characteristics rather than treating every machine as the same type.

    Articulating boom lifts

    The JLG 450AJ, 600AJ and 800AJ are articulating boom lifts in the supplied manufacturer specifications. Articulating booms use multiple boom sections and a jib to position the platform around structures and into areas where straight vertical access is not enough.

    Telescopic boom lifts

    The JLG 860SJ is a telescopic boom lift. Its supplied specification lists a 26.21 m platform height and 22.86 m horizontal outreach, making it the longest-reach machine in this four-machine sales selection.

    How Much Does a Cherry Picker Cost in South Africa?

    Cherry picker prices in South Africa vary according to the machine model, age, condition, refurbishment level, working height, horizontal outreach, platform capacity, specifications, availability and transport requirements. New and refurbished equipment should also be evaluated differently when comparing total purchase cost.

    If you are comparing cherry pickers for sale from different suppliers, consider more than the advertised purchase price. Machine condition, working hours, refurbishment, specifications, service history, availability and delivery can all affect the overall cost of the equipment.

    RN Access Solutions does not publish a fixed price for the four machines on this page. Request a current price for the specific JLG machine you are considering and provide your location and application so the enquiry can be assessed accurately.
