Equipment Delivery Options
At Wholesale Lifts, our commitment is to provide you with the best customer service. We offer you various delivery options so that you can choose the one that best fits your needs.
I have the equipment to unload my order
Do you have a forklift, a high-capacity hoist, or a tractor in your facility? In that case, this option may be the one for you.
What to keep in mind when choosing this option:
- The most popular 2-post lifts (with 9,000 lb and 10,000 lb capacity) have a shipping weight of approximately 1,400 lbs and 1,900 lbs, respectively. On the other hand, a 15,000 lb capacity 2-post lift has a 2,700 lb shipping weight.
- Given the packaged lift and hydraulic power unit’s weight, they cannot be unloaded from the trailer by hand. Simply put, IT IS MANDATORY TO USE A SUITABLE FORKLIFT OR HOIST FOR UNLOADING THE LIFT.
- You are solely responsible for unloading your equipment from the truck. The truck driver cannot do this for you.
- Wholesale Lifts uses trustworthy freight companies to make the deliveries. It is your responsibility to be present on the scheduled date and time of the delivery.
- There will be a receiver charge, which varies by carrier (typically $100+), if the truck driver arrives at the designated location and the customer does not have the necessary means ready to unload the lift.
In case you do not have the necessary equipment to unload the equipment do not worry. Wholesale Lifts offers other delivery options.
Pick up at one of our warehouses
Do you have a hitch trailer to transport your lift? If so, then this might be the best option.
What to keep in mind when choosing this option:
- Wholesale Lifts and our brands’ warehouses have the means to load your car lift into an appropriate trailer.
- Given the weight and dimensions of car lifts, we cannot load lifts directly into vehicles or trucks. To safely transport your lift, you will need a hitch trailer.
Will this option not work for you? Perhaps the warehouse is too far from your location? If so, keep reading.
Dock Hold from LTL Carrier
Think of this option as a variation of the previous one. Even so, this could be an excellent alternative to picking up the lift at one of our warehouses. Instead, we can take the car lift to a warehouse closer to your location.
You will still need a hitch trailer to transport the lift for this option, but you can save on freight costs if you have an LTL Carrier close to your shop.
Ship directly to a local installer
Neither of the above delivery options suits you? Then we have the solution.
We will dispatch your lifts directly to a local installer in your area. This way, you will not have to worry about anything since the installer would be in charge of the logistics.
What to keep in mind when choosing this option:
- You still have to pay the freight fee to the installer (or dock hold for the installer to pick up the lift)
- We will quote the installation fee before you pay for the lift so that you can get an idea of the total amount to pay (car lift + freight + installation)
Do you have another delivery option in mind? In that case, do not hesitate to contact us. At Wholesale Lifts, we are open to all kinds of solutions, as long as they comply with the relevant local regulations and safety standards.

Work at a comfortable mid-rise height with the MDS-6LP scissor lift, built for 6,000-lb. capacity and professional vehicle service. Its open-center design gives technicians useful access for exhaust, drivetrain, brake, tire, suspension and inspection work, while the low-profile platform layout helps support fast setup in busy service bays, body shops and garages that need strong lifting without a full-height lift.

MDS-6LP Mid-Rise Scissor Lift Built Around Open-Center Access
The BendPak MDS-6LP Open-Center Mid-Rise Scissor Lift gives shops a 6,000-lb. lifting solution that reaches more OEM lift points while preserving access through the middle of the vehicle. Its longer platforms and extended lift point spread are designed to help service more vehicle types, including longer wheelbase applications that can be difficult to position on smaller mid-rise lifts. This open-center design is especially useful for wheel, brake, suspension, detailing, and underbody service where technicians need real access without dedicating an entire bay to a full-rise lift. The MDS-6LP is built for shops that want mid-rise convenience with stronger structure, safer positioning, and more working versatility than a basic low-rise platform.

Removable Ramps and Kicker Assist for Easier Setup
The MDS-6LP uses removable approach ramps that attach directly to the lift platforms, making it easier to drive on, elevate the vehicle, and then clear the ramps for better wheel-well access. The slotted receivers allow the ramps to drop into place and remove quickly when the job calls for more room. A pivoting kicker mechanism helps the lift rise from its collapsed position, providing extra assistance through the first inches of movement where scissor lifts face the greatest mechanical disadvantage. That added boost helps the MDS-6LP raise low-clearance vehicles more confidently from a low starting height.
Four-Cylinder Hydraulic Power with Level Platform Control
The MDS-6LP is powered by four hydraulic cylinders that work together to raise the platforms evenly and efficiently. A proprietary flow divider helps keep hydraulic pressure balanced between the platforms, supporting a level lift from the first movement through full rise. Each platform includes four solid steel scissor-frame support bars, giving the lift a rugged foundation for demanding shop use. Hinge points with Zerk grease fittings help maintain critical wear areas, supporting smoother operation and longer service life with routine lubrication.

Automatic Safety Locks and Push-Button Release
Solid-steel safety lock bars engage automatically as the lift rises, allowing technicians to work from multiple locking positions while taking pressure off the hydraulic system during service. Three lock positions help operators choose the working height that best fits the job and reduces fatigue. Stainless-steel pneumatic cylinders release the safety locks during descent with a push-button system operated away from the lift. The system requires a minimum 50 psi, 10 CFM air source at installation and eliminates the need to fight cumbersome release bars or handles.

- 6,000-lb. Capacity — Designed for mid-rise service on a wide range of cars and light-duty vehicles in a compact footprint.
- Open-Center Access — The open-center layout improves access beneath the vehicle. Ideal for wheel, brake, suspension, and inspection work.
- Longer Lift Platforms — Extended platforms help reach more OEM lift points, supporting safer setup on longer wheelbase vehicles.
- Four Hydraulic Cylinders — Four cylinders and a flow divider help the platforms rise evenly for balanced lifting and controlled descent.
- Automatic Safety Locks — Solid-steel safety lock bars engage automatically during ascent. Three locking positions give more working-height options.
- Push-Button Lock Release — Stainless pneumatic cylinders release the locks during descent without pulling release bars by hand.
