Section 179 in 2026: How to Write Off a Forklift or Truck Body Before Year-End
November 9, 2026
Every December, the same rumor makes its rounds: if you buy equipment before the year's out, you can write it off. But is the rumor true? Tax bills are coming, so if you've got money left in the budget, it's worth a look. The truth is that it all comes down to timing.
Let's say you end up buying a forklift or truck body in December. The write-off is a good one. But it only counts if the equipment is running by December 31, not just ordered or paid for. This blog breaks down how the deadline works, what actually counts for the deduction, and what that means for the equipment you buy.
