When a manufacturing line in East Peoria adds a shift or a 3PL warehouse hits its peak, the right forklift is the difference between hitting throughput and falling behind. Associated is the authorized Raymond dealer for the region, supplying new forklifts, factory-certified Raymond RENEWED used trucks, and short- and long-term rentals to businesses across Tazewell County. We'll match the truck to your aisles, loads, and duty cycle - and back it with the parts and service to keep it productive.

Why Buy or Rent From the Raymond Dealer
Raymond builds some of the most durable, energy-efficient lift trucks in the industry, and as the authorized Raymond Solutions and Support Center for central Illinois, Associated does more than sell them. Every new and Raymond RENEWED truck is supported by our local parts and service network, and our rental fleet is dealer-maintained so it shows up ready to work. Need to flex capacity for a few weeks or stand up a new line for a few years? We'll structure a purchase, rental, or lease that fits how your East Peoria operation actually runs.
Local Expertise
East Peoria's heavy-equipment plants run hard year-round, while its 3PL and warehouse operations swing with shipping cycles and river-and-rail freight. We help both - supplementing fleets with rentals when distribution volume spikes, and placing new or Raymond RENEWED trucks where utilization justifies owning. For the heavy components and dense palletized loads common in manufacturing and brick handling, we'll spec the right capacity, tires, and operator setup so the equipment holds up.
Why Associated?
As the region's authorized Raymond dealer, Associated puts forklift sales, rentals, parts, and service under one roof - backed by 200+ factory-trained technicians and one of the largest parts divisions in the Midwest, serving central Illinois since 1960.
