Used Lifts

Used Lifts

A used lift can be a smart buy — or a safety liability bolted to your floor. The difference is who you buy it from. A lift on Facebook Marketplace comes with no inspection, no install, no parts support, and no idea whether the cables, locks, and cylinders are sound. A used lift from Auto Lift Services comes from people who install, inspect, and repair lifts for a living.

What "used" means when you buy it from us

  • Inspected by certified lift techs. Before we stand behind a used lift, we check the safety-critical components — cables, locks and latches, arm restraints, cylinders and seals, and structural condition — the same things we check on a paid lift inspection.
  • Installed correctly. A lift is only as safe as its anchoring and setup. We can deliver and install your used lift to spec, or coordinate the install, instead of leaving you to figure out the concrete and torque specs yourself.
  • Parts support after the sale. We carry a broad parts catalog across Rotary, Forward, Challenger, Atlas, BendPak, Mohawk, and more — so when a used lift eventually needs a cable or a lock kit, you're not hunting a discontinued part alone. (See our parts catalog.)
  • The right lift for your bay. Same free Fit Check as a new purchase — we confirm the used unit fits your ceiling height, concrete, electrical, and the vehicles you service before it's yours.

What we typically have

Used inventory rotates, so the best move is to tell us what you're after and we'll match it to what's in stock or coming in. We most often see: - Used 2-post lifts (9K–12K) — the workhorse for general service bays. - Used 4-post lifts — service and storage, including home-garage units. - Used alignment and specialty lifts as they come available through trade-ins and shop closeouts.

If you're buying used to save money but you're not certain the unit is safe or complete, send us the make, model, and a few photos — we'll tell you straight whether it's worth it.

Considering new instead?

Sometimes a new lift on the right financing beats a used one once you factor in install, missing parts, and the years of life left. If you want us to compare a specific used unit against a comparable new 2-post or 4-post, just ask — we'll give you the honest math.
