Forklift servicing in Oxford: common questions

Who comes out to Oxford?

An engineer from our West Service Centre at Spencers Wood, Reading (RG7 1PJ). 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 Oxford?

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.

What hours do your engineers work?

Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm. There is also a 24/7 breakdown callout number for a machine that stops outside those hours. A callout carries a callout charge and travel on top of the work itself.

Who is responsible for the LOLER examination, us or you?

The duty sits with whoever has control of the equipment at work, so on your own machines it is yours. What we do is carry it out, issue the report and keep the schedule, which is the part that usually gets missed.

Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?

Yes. Oxfordshire is worked from our West 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.
