Forklift servicing in Essex: common questions

Who comes out to Essex?

An engineer from our Head Office South East at Purfleet, Essex (RM15 4YD). They are field based and work from a stocked van, so the great majority of servicing, examinations and repairs are finished on your own floor in one visit.

What does it cost to hire a forklift here?

Yes. Hire starts at £85 and runs from a single day up to long-term contract hire, with the minimum charge one week at the weekly rate. Delivery is arranged from Purfleet on our own transport.

Can you cover several machines on one agreement?

Yes. A maintenance contract across a fleet in Essex fixes the schedule, the parts and the examination dates in one place, and larger fleets can be run through our fleet management service with a portal to see the whole picture.

Do you look after machines you did not supply?

Yes, and most of the 3,500 machines we maintain came from somewhere else. Make and model make no odds: diesel, LPG and electric counterbalance, reach trucks, powered pallet trucks, stackers and access equipment are all covered.

What happens if a machine stops mid-shift?

Call 01708 861 414. A breakdown callout runs 24/7 and the engineer arrives with a stocked van, which is why 92% of callouts are fixed on the first visit. If a repair is going to take longer, we can get a replacement machine to you.
