Community Forklift Supports Our Community
&
Our Community Supports Us
|
 |
|
One way we give back to our community is by donating household and home improvement essentials to families and individuals in need.
 |
“Thank you for working with me with the air conditioners. I really appreciate it. You did a good job of hanging in there with me.” –Mr. H
|
“…you guys provide home essentials with a smile. It is evident that Community Forklift is truly here for the community, and the community is better because of the great services you provide!” –Mr. Patterson, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW)

Friday & Saturday

WE HATE BLACK FRIDAY – THE COMMERCIALISM,
THE COST, AND THE UNHAPPY CROWDS
LET’S CELEBRATE COMMUNITY INSTEAD!
Instead of ordering plastic junk online or fighting crowds to buy presents, come by the Forklift warehouse to relax with friends, support local businesses, and learn how to make your own presents.
Enjoy holiday treats, free activities for kids, community crafting (make your own gifts), a holiday gift market, and blacksmithing demonstrations.
