Material Handling

Running a building materials operation is no easy feat. Your customers depend on you to complete jobs on schedule, and if your equipment or commercial trucks are down, commitments are not met and other problems arise.

Warning: Not maintaining your forklift as soon as an issue arises can cost you a lot in the long run. What were once small problems can snowball into major issues, resulting in expensive repairs down the line.

It’s coming to the end of the year, and if you still haven’t started claiming your tax savings for 2019 it’s time to begin as soon as possible. Luckily, there is still plenty of time to get your claims in for Section 179 Deduction.

For some businesses, it’s wiser to invest in a used forklift, enabling them to meet requirements while staying within budget. However, buying used material handling equipment comes with some risks all businesses should be aware of.

Is a new or used forklift in the cards for your business in 2020? Your material handling equipment will be an integral part of your operation for many years to come, so plan carefully.

If you’re actively searching for a new material handling vehicle to replace an older one in your fleet, make sure you have all the info before you make your purchase. If you replace a vehicle too early, you risk lowering your ROI.

When you’re looking after warehouse operations, your day is a busy one. Schedules are tight and carefully orchestrated, and there is little room for leeway.
