Your service centre
Southern Service Centre
Chatham covers Kent and the south east corner. It is a field base: engineers are on the road from it most of the day, and parts come down from Purfleet overnight when they are not already on the van.

A second centre working the same ground, so there is fleet and engineering capacity behind a Chatham job whatever the machine. Acclaim services and examines equipment the length and breadth of the UK, and Chatham sits well inside that.

Forklift servicing in Chatham: common questions
Who comes out to Chatham?
An engineer from our Southern Service Centre at Chatham, Kent (ME5 8RZ), under 10 miles from Chatham. 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.
Do you hire machines out in Chatham?
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. Machines come from the same fleet our engineers maintain, so a hire truck is on the same service schedule as a bought one.
Is the work done at our premises?
Yes. Servicing, LOLER thorough examinations and most repairs are carried out at your site in Chatham. The workshop at Chatham is there for the heavier jobs, and we arrange transport both ways when a machine needs it.
Do you cover the whole of Medway?
Yes. Medway is worked from our Southern Service Centre, and Acclaim services and examines equipment the length and breadth of the UK from eight regional centres, so a business with sites in more than one region deals with one supplier.
What paperwork do we get?
A service record for the work done and, where a thorough examination is carried out, a CFTS report of thorough examination. Reports need keeping until the next one is issued, and for two years in the case of a report on lifting accessories.
