Forklift servicing in Suffolk: common questions
Who comes out to Suffolk?
An engineer from our East Anglia Service Centre at Rackheath, Norfolk (NR13 6PL). 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.
Can we take a machine short term instead of buying?
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. Attachments, access equipment and industrial cleaning machinery hire on the same agreement.
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.
How often does a truck in Suffolk need a thorough examination?
Every twelve months for a forklift used to lift goods, and every six months where it lifts people or carries a person-lifting attachment. A written scheme of examination can set a different interval. We track the dates for machines on a contract and tell you before one is due.
Is the work done at our premises?
Yes. Servicing, LOLER thorough examinations and most repairs are carried out at your site in Suffolk. The workshop at Rackheath is there for the heavier jobs, and we arrange transport both ways when a machine needs it.
