Forklift Sales & Rentals | Normal, IL
New Raymond forklifts, factory-certified used trucks, and flexible rentals for Normal operations.
When an assembly line in Normal ramps a shift or a distribution center 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 McLean 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 Normal operation actually runs.
Local Expertise
Normal's electric-vehicle and automotive plants run high-throughput, multi-shift lines that demand reliable, energy-efficient electric trucks, while inbound-parts and outbound-vehicle logistics drive steady forklift demand year-round. We help both - supplementing fleets with rentals during production ramps and project work, and placing new or Raymond RENEWED trucks where utilization justifies owning. For the tight aisles and high-volume picking common in automotive supply, we'll spec the right reach trucks and operator setup so the equipment keeps pace.
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.
