Scissor Lift Pricing: What Affects Cost

What actually drives scissor lift cost? The biggest variables are size, power type, brand, condition, hours, and delivery location. Below are the factors we use to quote every unit — call for current pricing.

New Electric Scissor Lift Pricing

New electric slab scissor lifts from Genie, Skyjack and JLG are the most-quoted category in the market. Pricing is remarkably consistent across the three brands for comparable specs — usually within a few thousand dollars for the same size class.

Call for current 19 ft, 26 ft, 32 ft and 40 ft electric slab pricing. We quote FOB our yard, plus optional deck extensions, AC outlets, and battery upgrades.

  • 19 ft electric (GS-1930 / SJIII 3219 / ES1932): call for price
  • 26 ft electric (GS-2632 / SJIII 3226): call for price
  • 32 ft electric (GS-3246 / SJIII 4632): call for price
  • 40 ft electric (GS-4047 / SJIII 4740): call for price

New Rough Terrain Scissor Lift Pricing

Rough terrain (RT) scissor lifts add diesel or dual-fuel powertrains, 4WD, oscillating axles, and outriggers. They typically cost roughly 1.8x–2.2x the equivalent electric slab unit. Call for current RT pricing.

  • 26 ft RT diesel: call for price
  • 33 ft RT diesel: call for price
  • 40 ft RT diesel: call for price

Used Scissor Lift Pricing

The used market is where most buyers find the best total-cost-of-ownership. A 3–5 year old, 1,200–2,500 hour unit from a regional rental fleet typically has 60–70% of its service life left, at a much lower cost of entry than a new unit.

Used pricing depends heavily on hours, prior owner (rental fleet vs single-owner), and current ANSI inspection status. Every used unit we sell ships with a current A92.20 certificate and 30-day mechanical warranty. Call for current used-unit pricing.

  • Used 19 ft electric: call for price
  • Used 26 ft electric: call for price
  • Used 32 ft electric: call for price
  • Used 40 ft electric: call for price
  • Used 26–33 ft RT diesel: call for price

What Drives Price Differences

Two used 32 ft electrics can be priced thousands apart for legitimate reasons. The top variables that move price:

  • Hours on the unit — under 1,000 commands a premium
  • Battery condition — replacement packs are a major cost on electric units
  • Tire condition — solid non-marking tires are a wear item
  • Deck extension and accessory packages
  • Current ANSI inspection vs needing recertification
  • Cosmetic condition and paint

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a new scissor lift cost?
New scissor lift pricing depends on platform height, brand, power type, and options. Call (877) 777-9291 for current dealer pricing and availability.
How much does a used scissor lift cost?
Used scissor lift values are driven by hours, age, battery or engine condition, and prior maintenance history. Call for current inspected-unit pricing.
Is it cheaper to buy or rent a scissor lift?
If you'll use the lift more than 4–5 months per year, ownership beats renting on total cost. Rentals make sense for one-off projects under 90 days.
Do scissor lift prices include delivery?
Most quoted prices are FOB our yard. Common-carrier or hot-shot delivery is quoted separately based on destination.
Can I finance a scissor lift?
Yes — we offer 36–60 month financing on new and used units through our equipment lender network. Soft pulls for pre-qualification, decisions in 24 hours.
